the new xb???

the pic in the title is a concept. i wouldnt expect to see scion produce a car like that.
however...
how do you feel about scion using the tc's 2.4l engine in the 2nd gen xb?
sure, it adds more power, but at what cost? the original xb's 1.5l engine was good enough and gave good gas milage. the 2.4l in the new xb gets 3-4 less MPG. is the extra power worth the loss in fuel economy?
the new scion xb is also 1 foot longer and a tad wider. i feel the original was just the right size.

scion, what do you think?

i am a fan of the scion xb.
i know scion was created to get toyota a better edge in the youth market, but iv met people of all ages that either like or own a scion.
why do you like your scion?
which do you think is the best?
