The Scion iQ hasn't received much attention due to its pint-sized appearance (or maybe in spite of it). However, instead of taking things lying down, the little Toyota runabout has come out fighting.
To make sure the car packs one heck up a punch, the guys at SR Auto Group decided to give it a cosmetic makeover that brought new wheels and tires to the game. Its tiny frame now bulges with muscle, as the 18-inch Sparco Assetto Gara wheels fill the wheel arches to the brim.

To ensure the right stance, they also fitted a set of Tein lowering springs. This goes well with the new body kit created by Five Axis especially for this car, containing a new front lip, side skirts, rear valence and rear spoiler.

So what do you think: is the little iQ fit to go racing against other subcompacts or can we safely say that it's just for show.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
