wow, thats sick as hell.

 

Yea I remember seeing pictures of that from the show. It looks really hot! Though I'd like to see if someone could manage to chop the xD then build a convertible top that works properly

 

you could do that...with the work....i wouldn't make it a convertible soft top that works though...a removable hard top. sick.

...if i had the money,.....

 

Saw it at United. Pretty sick.

 

its definitely nice. its a project car scion gives a builder to do. they all in the end get crushed =(

 

crushed???

 

yeah, saw it at united, very nice, I'd cruise around in it on nice days, which would be one month a year around here, lol.

 

Thing isn't drivable, too many things wrong (more like right) with it. If they don't get crushed someone might drive/crash it.

I love it except for the beechwood. It seems too pretentious.

 

None of you guys grabbed that FREE copy of the Scion 2007-2008 brochure from your local dealer? There is a full spread article with much nicer (glossy) pictures of this "Dalek" project in that brochure. And a couple other project cars as well. The xB Project car had some kind of rocket launcher thing... I think it was more like a bird-feeder gun. LOL. That's how I knew about it. I actually read the Toyota-Scion brochure. =)

If you ever stop by your local Toyota dealer, just grab a free copy of the brochure. It's free. And if nothing else, the brochure (very nice glossy color photos of all 3 models) is a very good way to show other friends (co-workers, etc) since many of them have no freakin clue what a Scion is.

 

most of us don't visit the dealer once we have the car...unless there's some problem.

but, cool, thanks!

 

Anyone can order the full-color Scion brochure from the Scion website. It's free.

But yeah, I know what you're saying about not going back to the dealer unless there's problems. the dealer that sold my 2009 xD is like over 30 miles away. my car runs like a beauty, so I don't expect to visit them any time soon.

 

Not even for the free 5k and 10k visits?

 

most of the time they are preproduction vehicles that are used for marketing and demo. they are not allowed to be driven on public roads and etc. big liability. once scion gets their marketing value out of them, they crush them so the liability of the vehicle itself is gone. may seem like a big waste to you but its better for big corporations to do this to make sure they are safe

 

I'm almost due for my 5K, is it UNVERSALLY FREE? (for real?) can anyone confirm? I saw a bunch or prices when i was at the dealer last. the 5K maintenamce was like 60 or 70 bucks i thought.

 

That's what I was told at the dealership and that's what scion.com says so if your dealership doesn't I'd contact Scion themselves and complain.

 

Mine was free, no questions asked.

 

The 5k and 10k visits are supposed to be free. It does NOT matter if you visit the original dealer that sold you the car, or another Scion dealer close to you. It should be free. If they tell you that you are supposed to pay for that 5k or 10k maintenance checkup, then tell them you will report them to Scion headquarters.
