View Full Version : preordered my xD yesterday.... Update: Pics
MrZero 07-13-2007, 03:38 PM So I went to my local dealer yesterday and spoke to a salesman about the xD, he tried the whole, "we don't have any information on em at all" speech.... I told him that I knew that scion released the prices on the xD on wed. and that they should already have some allocated... so then the guy goes "alright..." and goes to his little inventory computer and and looked up his allocated xD's... which was 1... a black one in standard... I put money down on it... XD
Looks like I am getting the first one in my area!!!!!!
He said that the date it will begin being built is on July 26, and It should be in my hands the first or second week of August!!!!
I got mine, do you have yours?
OldYeller 07-13-2007, 06:53 PM Congrats!!! Still waiting to see one in person. Have only seen the virtual one at the backstage event.
bBlover 07-13-2007, 07:03 PM ^ you coulda saw it @ TORC! :lalala: Congrats on your xD! Now do I want a xB2 or a xD?? Hmm.

What area are you in? I got a call from one of the dealers today that they are getting one, but they told me they don't know which one...
MrZero 07-14-2007, 04:35 AM He also said that the stock number of mine is 76308

Sgtfluffy16 08-11-2007, 04:46 AM one thing that i will never understand is why they put that damn rear wiper on .. i mean come on the wiper blade is 5 inches long.. WTF is the point of it ?... :loser:
Elijahtc 08-11-2007, 04:54 AM Are those the TRD springs? Cause it doesn't look dropped at all.
tCtCtC 08-11-2007, 05:41 AM the key is dark gray now?!?!?!
bbcxb2 08-11-2007, 06:08 AM ours are black.....
shea43 08-11-2007, 07:07 AM It's subtle but I think it's dropped. Congrats dude!
MrZero 08-11-2007, 08:31 AM Its dropped on the TuRD springs(compare the third pic down with the ones in the garage), key is black, and the wiper is useless...
jspectoaster 08-11-2007, 10:26 AM pretty please post more pics of that drop
MrZero 08-11-2007, 05:03 PM Only cause you said "pretty please"

jspectoaster 08-11-2007, 06:58 PM thank you kind sir.it looks hella good with the drop.looks like the r.s. 4 is getting traded up for a xD
MrZero 08-11-2007, 07:11 PM and no one has commented on the wing?
TheUglyOne 08-11-2007, 08:07 PM Looks butt ugly.
jspectoaster 08-11-2007, 08:14 PM ^^^ wow that was completely neccesary :blah:
ALIFExD 08-13-2007, 04:07 PM is that the upgradable spoiler? mine came with one but its not as long as that one. its like half of that
Elijahtc 08-13-2007, 06:48 PM the one u got is the stock one and he has the upgradeable one. What drop is that? Doesn't look dropped hardly at all.
MrZero 08-17-2007, 08:36 AM Those are the TuRD lowering springs... and yes thats the upgraded wing...
TorchedPerfection86 08-21-2007, 04:19 PM Congrats on the new xD man!!! Good Luck with it :)
iKONA 08-30-2007, 07:09 AM Man the new xD is so nice! It makes me want to pick it up and put it in my pocket!
KingLou 08-30-2007, 07:57 AM I have been historically unimpressed with TRD lowering springs and the overall drop they offer. HOWEVER, different people have different tastes when it comes to how low you car to go........so in that regard, get what you want!
All I remember is that my bro got the TRD springs on his first gen xB.....and the drop was there, just not very much. I, on the other hand, installed Goldline springs on my first gen xB. The drop was 2 inches and very noticeable. I got many inquiries wondering what springs I had that go my car so low.

zoltiz 08-30-2007, 01:06 PM ^^^ If your main reason to get the springs is for the "look" - cut a coil or two and save yourself the cash.
TRD springs (usually just rebadged Eibachs with a markup) historically had a great combination of performance while keeping the stock struts and shocks alive for an extended period of time. The "look" perspective was also right on the dot - wheel gap was even around the tire.
TorchedPerfection86 08-30-2007, 02:52 PM ^^^ If your main reason to get the springs is for the "look" - cut a coil or two and save yourself the cash.
:rofl: wow thats some real good advice! Its real safe to cut your springs!...... i think id rather save my life and the other drivers around me than save a few dollars on suspension. :eyebrow:

Really? I thought it's all about the "look"...

Looks like you got some new rims too! Looking good.
zoltiz 08-30-2007, 05:00 PM http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/gadgets/pimpstar-led-car-rims-162990.php
I was on the waiting list for these. You spoiled the surprise.
Chibi_Knight 08-30-2007, 05:40 PM Nice wheels, I was actually looking into those or the BK7's in white. I'm curious tho, did you get em at wheelmax? if so - how was the purchase? I've heard mixed reviews about them.
Yer car dirty- shame :no:
MrZero 09-10-2007, 05:12 AM I forgot about this post... lol, the rims are from wheelmax originally, I had no problems with them at all, shipping was fast cost was right... I was very satisfied with them...
thanks for the love/hate from everyone :D
