I know the last few xA, xD, and xB RS series have come with steel wheels and "special" hubcaps.

Scion needs to step it up, IMHO.

Time to bring over the new bB ...
Any car manufacturer still putting steel wheels with plastic wheel covers / hubcaps, as opposed to alloy wheels, on any car that is not the bare-boned, ultra-base, least expensive version/model possible needs to step it up, IMO.

The Yaris hb- xY
The Yaris sedan- tS
tC- tC

That's the Lineup that truly follows Scion's purpose in my opinion... Sporty, Modern, Youthful, and not overly expensive
Interesting idea, but I wonder if Toyota would think that would confuse too many people. Customers may wonder where the Yaris went.

WASABI green as its called is another EPIC fail for scion and their release series. the RS1 xa and RS2 xb came with RIMS and now scion goes and dumps all its release series money on that TRD RS5 tc leaving this to sit in dealers lots

RS 2.0 xD = $15,920 for the manual, $16,720 for automatic.
Almost a Yaris at a higher price. Stick with the genuine article.

And, um, tanking sales...
I couldn't have said it better myself.
