Default New addition to the family...

My wife Cristy stopped in Oakbrook Toyota last Thursday to have dinner with me.
I suggested she see how much we can get for her 2005 XA as a trade in
She drove out in a Stingray Blue 2010 XB.
As with everybody who buys Scions, she paid full pop. NOBODY gets a discount on Scions.
She loves her car & once I make up for being a financial black hole, we are planning on some mild mods...
Did I mention we have a Certified 2005 XA on the lot now?

No photos yet. Too cold...

http://www.oakbrooktoyota.com/certif...90efcc5a43.htm

it's somewhat loaded.
6 CD, led interior lights, factory floor mats, remote entry (that WAS an option...)

I used Mobil-1 in both of our cars.

There are two small dings: one on the fender lip & one on the edge of the door. (The door ding couldn't be removed by paintless dent repair. Didn't try with the fender & I know a guy...)

it's also certified: 100,000mi drivetrain warranty & roadside assistance

one of our porters almost snagged it the other day...

By the way, if you stop by, my real name is Tony Cambio...

I bought an '08 xB auto, w/ 39k for $13,600 out the door from a dealership 2 months ago. That price was less then the fair for private purchase on KBB. I was quite thrilled. I love it.

By the way, Ian, I never checked what her trade in was, but they kept her payment the same between XA & XB2. (yes, her credit has improved quite a bit over 4 1/2 years)

Also, I was talking with a customer the other day, telling him my wife drives exactly the same car he was buying. Of course he thought that was a line. Until my wife walked through the door with my dinner & I introduced them... :-)
