In an email from Scion.

Don't know how to feel about "The Scion iM, a sport hatchback". But !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , as desertdog pointed out, I'm thinking more along the lines of this:

If i squint really hard and only look at that one piece of the front grille, then yes

The iM is going to be a version of the Euro-market Toyota Auris.

This is the iM concept :

This is the Auris :

The top engine in the Auris hatch, at least in the UK, is a 130 hp, 1.6-liter I4. Hopefully the Scion version gets more power.

No Nurburgring edition? What a let-down

A very quick Google search shows the Auris at around 2800lbs. If Toyota can keep it around there and give it 170-180hp, it could be a lot of fun. I used to have a first gen xB (25-2600lbs with 100hp), and I always thought that that car would be a blast with another 50hp.

It doesn't need to set the world on fire to be fun, and since Honda seems to refuse to put 170-180hp in the Fit, I'm curious to see if Toyota strikes first.
