Toyota IQ is here.

In Germany anyway. I hope it hit's the states soon. This is going to take the place of the SMART car for sure. Slightly longer than a SMART but considerably smaller than the Yaris.

Me wants :D

I'd be interested. I hope they don't dumb it down too much for the US market.

The cube!!!... That car looks like it has Down syndrome. No offense to those who have Down syndrome, or own a cube, or both.

I read that the front end design ideas came from a bulldog wearing sunglasses.

You guys are hilarious. First off. A little off topic but I like the cube. It's odd and diffent. Outside the box. I love stuff like that. I think that is also why I like IQ too.

It's going to be the future of american micro cars.

I have to admit, the IQ IS cute....and the video is quite the piece of work. I like how they kept passing the car through that sheet of water, it was like the car verison of an MTV video. Back when MTV actually had music videos....

Gotta say this is one of my favorite rolling boxes. See, it even has scuttles!
Rodents are optional.
