Looks like that feature also got the axe.

Hmmm... looks like just standard navigation screen. Wonder if that will even be standard or an upgrade....

And that interior cloth looks terrible, who designed that pattern!

I agree that the interior seat material doesn't seem to go along with the rest of the car. If this does not change by release I may need to invest in seat covers, which is sad to think to do to a brand new car.

Again I am sure there are different trim levels available. Perhaps the XL screen is an add on?

All Scion models are mono-spec, single trim levels. The only option (outside of the accessories that you can add a la carte) is the transmission choice, and even that isn't an option for the '11 iQ.

HA! Right. Concept models are rarely as cool as the production versions.

The production model showed the same standard double-din found in every Scion. I'm expecting you can add the SNS, which is $1900, or add an aftermarket double-din navi unit.

Probably just to go after market DVD screen in that case

Hmmm not sure if I could justify $2000 for the screen on a $17,000 car.

Agreed. If it comes standard with the car, I will enjoy it (I'm not one for GPS though), but if it doesn't, I'll drive fine without it.

Good thing with Scion having a double-din is that you can get a full screen unit instead of a flip-up screen... and I'm sure you can find one for less than $2000.

Sad to see it go, but wasn't a necessity for me.

Double din is good and bad. Double din head units cost more from what I have seen.

Double-Din head units do cost more, but they don't break as often because there are less moving parts. However, I do like the pocket that the installation of a single-din in a double-din hole allows you to have. It's a nice place for a wallet :)

Big DVD screen is an unnecessary upgrade

Budget cuts! It was either cut out the DVD screen from iQ's or someone lost their job at Scion - guess what won!! :p

Not surprised, not practical in a car like this. Isn't there also laws against a driver being able to see a big DVD screen like that while driving?
