Who is actually going to buy an '08 xB?
#3
I have fully decided yet. I loved the one in Miami. I will wait until they come out with an RS, if they do. And that will be the one I get. If not, it will be the tC RS3, if any are left, lol.

At the Chicago Auto Show I used their little configurator to make up a new xB in Lava. It looks REALLY good. I'm going to be very tempted if they recycle the color from my car...

I have to say that I really like the new 08's, but im not really sold on them yet. I think I have put allot into my 06 that I am still really connected to the box. But i'm sure some awsome body kit will come out, and then it's off to the dealership.

if my car blows up or disappeared from the face of the earth, i will buy one. or if it gets totalled, i won't have a choice, and i will get the new one. i hope none of this ever happens btw.

I am getting the new b 4 sure.
I'd also like to go to regional events but, DANG there has been some nastieness spoken on this forum and others. The new b owners might have to start a forum.
For those who plan on buying one, will you feel like you are joining a crew?

If i really was worried about how i will be recieved with the new xB, then i wouldnt buy it for me, i would be buying it for everyone else. Im not, im buying it for me, and cause i think it has a world of possibilities.

All of us live actually down in DC, so we all like that "city car" feel to the classic xB, so I guess thats why we dont like the new one. Hardly anyone here in the city drives big cars. Scions & Mini Coopers are EVERYWHERE.

And if you don't consider DC part of the northeast, then what do you consider it?? Yeah, I guess technically its part of the Mid-Atlantic region, but guess what chief, so is Jersey AND New York.
So, guess you're not part of the northeast either ;-)

And both are still Scions, so they wont be excluded from my club nor any Scion related events.

i am actually going to buy a new xb2 and i want to be the first in hawaii, but i probably won't. But i will get an 08 model fo sho! it looks like it has a lot more possiblities performance-wise than the smaller 1.5 liter engine. not that i don't like my current xb, i just like the new xb alot more, with all the added stuff to it. i won't feel like a loser if i lose a race against the CityBus now. lol..

only thing that is stopping me from making a decision is the price. It looks like its gonna be at least 17K with that lip kit from 5-Axis, and then Id have to save up for some wheels. But yeah it looks like its gonna be pricey with all the standard features...
