Has anyone posted about this yet? I did a search and came up with nowt.

2014_LAAS_Scion_iM_Concept_Front-672.jpg

It's quite clearly an Auris with a pretty badass factory fitted bodykit on it. If it goes on sale like that I can see people trying to import those mirrors, for example.

Cool? Uncool? As a 2013 Auris owner I think it looks gorgeous and I want that front bumper!

Of course, "concept" means it probably won't happen. Can't quite tell in these following pics, maybe all the cool stuff has gone and it's just a stock Auris... seems odd that they would cover the front and back though since everyone's seen a normal Auris before...

Derp. Any idea if any of the sexy bits and bobs made it / are going to make it? I can't seem to find anything very recent, it doesn't appear to be on sale yet.

The car pictured was a concept - and I would imagine the final version of the Scion IM will be toned down somewhat. The Auris name is Europe only and elsewhere the car is badged Corolla. An example is the following New Zealand advert for the Corolla -

Presumably the IM will be sourced from the US factory that makes the Corolla sedan or from Japan.

Scion are dropping the IQ, but are having three new model launches in 2015 - presume one of these three will be the IM.

"Scion showed an iM concept car in November at the Los Angeles auto show. The brand will introduce a production version of the iM as well as a new sedan model in April at the New York auto show, and both will join the lineup in 2015’s second half, Murtha said"
