I just signed on the dotted line for my Polar White xB and the dealer said I was either the first xB purchaser in Massachusetts, or at the very least, the first purchaser of a Polar White xB in the state. I take delivery in about a week. I CAN'T WAIT!!! :lol:

I would like to thank everyone who is a regular contributor to this board. I have been doing a lot of research in deciding whether to get an xB and, if so, how should I equip it. The questions and answers you all have posted have helped me tremendously.

From reading a lot of opinions and suggestions on this site, here are the options I finally decided on:

* Cold Air Induction System by AEM
* TRD Front Strut Tie Bar
* Hotchkis Sport Sway Bars
* Wheels: Kosei K-1 Racing
* Yokohama AVS ES100 205/55VR15
* Carpeted Floor Mats/Cargo Mat
* Cargo Cover
* Shift Knob by OBX Racing Sports: Gray
* 3M Protective Membrane (aka "invisibra")

Rather than get the Scion alloys, my dealer suggested I pay about $150 more to get the style of wheels and tires I want AND I would get to keep the stock wheels and tires, too. It sounded like a good deal because I was considering getting dedicated winter tires anyhow. Now I can use the all-season stock tires for winter and I've got high performance tires for the summer. :P

Thanks again, everyone. As soon as I take delivery of my little sugar cube, I'll post some pics.
