According to CNN Money, three of the ten hottest selling cars in America are Scions. [You bought one of those, didn't you, you slavish follower of fashion.-ed. I stand chastised.]

I have a pet theory that automobile design lags behind office building design by about 20 years. Boxy buildings in the mid-60′s means boxy cars in the mid-80′s. And as I recall, the office buildings of the mid-80′s had a rounder more stylish minimalism. I think my theory is holding. And I think revivalism (Mustang, etc.) is arriving right on schedule for the next few years.
I’ve been driving a cab for the past two years and read about the XB in Mickey Kaus’ Files. Although I’m outside the demographic (and financial wherewithal) by ten years, I do agree with him that it would make an excellent taxi. It seems like that front ‘bumper’ is even more of a cow catcher than the first year model. Maybe send it to Foose.
I have a less than vague awareness of this “Scion” thing, but I do like the new “retro” Mustangs quite a lot.
In fact, getting a convertible version with the largest engine possible and driving through the center of that whacko town in CA at 26 MPH with the top down, whilst smoking a full-flavor Marlboro Red feels very appealing at the moment.
My husband is frothing at the mouth for the new Challenger. 500 horsepower? It’s just ludicrous! I’m sticking with my Jeep.
Guess who had a run in with a Scion?
I’m waiting for news of the first plastic shrapnel fatalities.
