Default Finally! [Yep, Another Camo!!! Dropped and Winged]

w00t! Got my xB finally today

So friggin awesome, i feel like i'm driving around inside my house, so big inside. I originally wanted a PW, but my mom kept saying that it would get dirty etc. So i switched to BOP. Tried to order one, dealer i went to told me they ordered one, but every day they'd call and try to sell me a BCP or some other one. Which told me that they just wanted to get the sale ASAP and didn't care that i wanted a BOP... They also charged me 1500$ down! I had the rest cash to give them (Line-of-credit loan, to them it's cash). Not only did they charge that much, they deposited it!!!

My mom out of curiousity called another dealer and asked them questions to see if the first dealer was screwin us over. That dealer had an 06 Camo on the lot, went yesterday, they offered me $700 more for my trade in then dealer #1, and this xB had Toyogaurd on it (yea i know the overpriced rubber sheit, i like the etched windows, but my mom really like the adition of Toyogaurd so, yea).

Anyhow, went this morning, handed over my car, got the xB, conned them out of a free keychain, and damn it's so awesome!

I can't wait to start adding stuff to it! It's so cool tho, looks bad ___ stock, even better when modded right. The Camo has really grown on me though, looks cool in a parking lot at night with the lights reflecting off the green, and in the day looks sweet too.

Anyhow, here are the pics of my n00b xB:







Oh, and of course the mileage:




I know, not as low as some of u all, but damn it's new to me!

Anyhow, tommorow i'm planning on putting on the 15" Rota C8's i had on my Echo on my cardomain page. We'll see how it looks after i get the pics up


Also, i plan on doing interior & underbody LED lighting, but i can't decide on a color to go with. Any suggestions? I'll prolly get a 7 color kit outside, but for the inside what do i do

thanks

UPDATE 9-29

New pics, Got the OEM Spoiler installed today, put on my Tanabe's yesterday. They might settle a little more but in person the car looks dumped . Still goes over speed bumps though, which is good news for me ^_^


Before:



After:




More pics on my CarDomain site. Should have some good pics after a show this weekend on there.

nice and good job

fyi: white cars are easiest to keep clean. the lighter the color the longer it stays clean lookin. I know its odd but thats how it is.

gotta love the camo's. they actually grew on me after I bought my PW and it would have been my second color choice if I wasn't so obsessed with white cars. I'd go with either green or the 7 color LED's you were talking about, but I think green would be a better theme with a green car...just my opinon. what other mods you plan on doing?

I saw a Camo today - on the top of a car carrier heading to the local dealership (yes, I know I'm an xB geek for noticing it!).

Have fun and drive safely.

thx

Future mods:

Rota D2 Gold w/ Polished Lip 17"x8.5"
Custom CarPC w/ 7" Touchscreen molded into the dash
Air Suspension w/ ES Front struts, FBI rear brackets and SS52 bags. Viar Compressor, and i'm not sure which size tank yet

Don't know which one of those i'm going to do first, i'm leaning more towards the CarPC mod because i'm going to get a nice custom job done by someone wanting to get there name out there :D

Anyhow, one day i will have a lot of stuff on it, but for now it's the 15" Rota's and stockness extreme lol. I'm just happy to have a new car, especially as cool as this. Can't wait to go to local meets and shows n chill

thx

the b0x moved around between dealers since it's been in the area. I guess a few deals fell thru. It got to this dealer, i went and put a deposit, then as soon as i left someone showed up and wanted it. They ended up getting the only other xB there, the BCP. Man am i glad, i couldnt wait another day!!
