Damnit! House, you should have been told that almost 2 weeks ago. I was told mine was allocated a while back. Im still waiting to hear when they plan on releasing it from the dock and to the dealer. Should be any day now ...... should be. Congrats on the date though, hopefully they will stick to it, cause that lil squirrel looks really mean.

It is an Auto, tired of banging gears ~ just want to jump in and cruise without the worry and also hold my tall Jim Beam and Coke !

Hmmmm, they are a small local dealership, excellent customer service, I have faith in them CB ..... You like the new Avator ........ He sounded very happy, I might be surprised and it appear quicker than anticipated ? I HOPE WE ALL GET OURS SOON ~ I am really looking forward to making the changes and getting out and meeting everyone ! I will buy the first round ........

My WHEEL project is slowly making progress, I ordered the Boyds, and called and told them to hold on a few days before cutting the metal - I seen some on that one website, emailed them and have yet to hear back, by weeks end if no answer, then Boyd will continue ..... I am now searching for some interior screens and a system. It is sad to say that I will probably dump almost 1/2 the price of the car into toys for the box ... I think we all we do the same !

Will keep you posted and Thanks ! I love that car .......

Yeah it is a small little piece. I laughed my a$$ off when mine came. I sat it next to my 4 inch intake pipe off my Eclipse and it looked even more pathetic . It does add a nice little pull though I didn't want shiny that's why I got the black one.

It will come. My dealership gets theirs tomorrow. I'm going in to check it out. Too bad it's an auto or I might have taken it

You guys have no idea; though no fault of yours, how much this ____es off people like myself, Doc, and House. If you go by the way they have delivered the xB ( cali, then taxas, then fla, then nc/sc ) we should be next. I mean, WTF SCION, just skip right over southern NJ, PA, MD & DE? Sure, well wait another 2 or 3 weeks, its not like we havent been waiting for delivery FOR THE PAST 3 MONTHS! Go ahead and ship them to Mass and upstate NY. Hell, send them to lower NY too, while your at it, send them from NEWARK NJ to MAINE, i heard they may sell one within the next month, cause everyone knows, people go car shopping when it snows every other day in MAINE.

A$$HOLE$

Sorry, just wishful thinking on my part. Didn't mean to hurt feelings. I called home and no news on the Lava. Does that make you feel better? I hope so.

I've been thinking about this more. And I just sent an email to my dealer. I mean, if Doc might get his after I get mine, I don't want one. Screw Scion and their ugly little POS anyway.







Just kiddin. Hey, I'm in Columbus, OH today and there's a car show here. The scion booth was one of the busiest. I went around to everyone "I got one and another on order. bet you wish you had one" then kicked their **** right in the shin, pointed and laughed.

There was a Jag that was cooler, a really cool lotus and a new pontiac that's like a miata beater that was nice looking, but other than that, I liked my xB.
