Dude are you a dwarf? All of your photos look like they were taken by someone who's 2feet tall.

Btw, take higher shots and perhaps get a better camera. Looks like you have a sub 1 mega pixel cam.

some shots can look extremely well if they are taken from a lower angle but the picture has to be composed the right way. it takes practice. im not saying your a bad photographer im not pro either but idk how many pics u took but try to take atleast a few hundred. no joke because 1 out of about 50 or even 100 look good. photography is fun just go have fun with it. i took a class on it and i had a lot of fun i enjoyed myself. just a couple pointers. good luck keep shooting

Jeeze people.. don't need to get all up his ___ for his pictures. If you're going to criticize, make it constructive and don't be an @$$ about it.


Keep it up.. some of the suggestions are good, so take heed!

No problem man, I love your xb.

It is truly one of a kind, and looks kickass in that rally pic. To me the xB looks like it would actually be a rally car.

Awesome Originality!

I truly believe it can rally, ive done stuff with my xB people would never think of, ive had it airborn so many times, ran so many back roads at 60mph+ ran the mountain roads up here at 80+. im not scared to try somthin new. Ive been mudding, it did it great!!! to get it with a AWD option would be great!!!! Thansk for the support!!!!

What's up with the front end? Never seen an xb rally car, lol,could be a killer ride. You got to get rid of the cheezy trible graphics though. Not dogin just a suggestion, now does it do on the dirt roads though? All we got is shells and swamp mud.

Their gonna go when it gets its paint job, i tried pulling some on, but the texas heat baken them on good, sux. It handles on gravel roads like a charm, however, turn the traction control off if your breaks are fairly new, i did a break job on mine, rotors turned and all, went on to the gravel roads, the traction control came on, i was all over the road, i turn it off and was fine.

you're rally scion on scion-nation. haha. I like the pic you have in your garage there too. It looks like it was from the same photo shoot as these. Scion-nation has been very slow lately so please post your pics there!
