If you had one question to ask about the new xB before it came out, what would you ask? What do you find important to you to know before it came out? :doh:

What do you find important to you to know before it came out? :doh: superboxcarxb 03-28-2007, 05:03 AM I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW THE PRICE!!! it's like i'm being tortured! i have to wait till june for the price??? I'm holding off on everything on my car, until i figure out the price so i can figure out if i should trade in my car or keep it. DFWDJ 03-28-2007, 01:55 PM Yeah, I don't get why the f&%$k they won't release the price... The whole ramp up and awe of the release was awesome, good marketing tactic, but not releasing the price is just ___. todasiracing 03-28-2007, 06:04 PM Pricing is a big issue I understand but unfortunately it isn't out yet from my understanding. :nope: Any technical questions? Straylight 03-28-2007, 06:07 PM I have one: "How can you call this an xB when it's technically a Honda Element?" DriverXa 03-28-2007, 07:14 PM I was told from my dealer that the starting price will be $17,000. Now what I would like to know y did they make those back pillars so damn big? To much of a blind spot if u ask me. Y did they use the 4speed auto from the tc? Y not use the 5speed auto to help out with fuel economy? And, Y not use the 2.0L from the next gen corolla instead of the 2.4L, would be alot better on gas plus they can fit a 6th gear in there for the stick shift model. kiefermr 03-28-2007, 07:20 PM Technically speaking, it's a Toyota. Dwatts5250 03-28-2007, 07:25 PM "Where's the 6 speed? lufoxe 03-28-2007, 07:37 PM ga$ milage DriverXa 03-28-2007, 08:45 PM Thought of another one. Since this is going to be a U.S. model only (not a japanese rebadge like the first one) is this thing still going to be made in japan? If its not I will be really upset. Japanese built toyotas are soo much better than US built. seattledave 03-28-2007, 10:11 PM corollas are us built, no? DriverXa 03-28-2007, 10:26 PM tC,xB,xA,yaris,tacoma,highlander,fjcruiser,landcruiser,and the whole lexus lineup are all made in japan. Everything else is made in the U.S. and yes there is a difference between a U.S. made toyota and a Japanese made toyota in case anyone's wondering. From driving my dad's 98camry, to my mom's 04 matrix, to my 06 xa u can tell the difference in quality. Sorry the U.S. models are assembled in the U.S. as far as I know all the U.S. models engines/trannies are made in Japan except the new Tundra which is made in Alabama. todasiracing 03-28-2007, 10:40 PM Yes, still built in Japan. :yawn: DriverXa 03-28-2007, 10:44 PM wow I'm surprised especially hearing that within the next 5 years they want to build a plants for the yaris, tacoma, highlander, and 2 other models I don't know of right now here in America. kiefermr 03-29-2007, 01:06 AM Makes sense. Yen is strong against the dollar right now and if they don't have to pay to freight it across the ocean, that's money they don't have to spend. Granted labor may cost more, but it may come out in the wash. Grogck 03-29-2007, 02:02 AM Gas mileage City mileage specifically. roXor_boXor 03-29-2007, 02:02 AM sig I think I have a problem with Super White Toyotas... can't stop buying the damn things. :rofl: Man can I identify with your sig. A few years ago I owned a Previa, 4Runner and Sienna at the same time. All white. :lalala: My neighbors started teasing me about my "Fleet Cars". Since then I have had a Red Honda Odyssey, Bluestone Highlander, Barcelona Red Prius(current) and a Winning Blue Mazda3(current). :P Thinking pretty hard about replacing the Mazda with a 2008 xB in .... you got it....Super White. 8) superboxcarxb 03-29-2007, 03:48 AM hmmm....i don't like any cars that are made in america....If the new xb is made here and the price is around 17k, then i'm NOT buying it. I will mod the crap out of my current xb then. And keep it till it dies or i die, or we both die in a horrible accident. with explosions. and hot girls. roXor_boXor 03-29-2007, 05:34 AM If the new xb is made here It's not. Only in Japan as stated several places. superboxcarxb 03-29-2007, 06:41 AM so it will be made in japan? ok, cool, i was about to turn my back on toyota if they were to do something like that! lol. archangel 03-29-2007, 03:39 PM I want to know if the rear seat leg room is still has huge as it is in the current model. rishio 03-29-2007, 04:41 PM I'd like to know if it's possible to sleep flat in it with the seats folded down. DirtyMexican 03-29-2007, 04:45 PM I want to know if it comes with a free taco? archangel 03-29-2007, 05:09 PM I want to know if it comes with a free taco? Thats a good question :ponder: FLNurse67 03-29-2007, 05:16 PM I would just want to know why the total new design. Although I'm sure it will be very nice..it seems to have lost part of the appeal that made me always want one. archangel 03-29-2007, 05:22 PM I want to know if it comes with a free taco? IF not would that be a possible upgrade option? :pray: DirtyMexican 03-29-2007, 05:49 PM I want to know if it comes with a free taco? IF not would that be a possible upgrade option? :pray: can I upgrade to 1 single solitary taco please :pray: :rofl: :rofl: rishio 03-29-2007, 06:27 PM i'd rather have a bean burrito krispies13 03-29-2007, 07:44 PM I think the RS5's comes with an Egg Roll Dispenser... Dwatts5250 03-29-2007, 07:46 PM I think the RS5's comes with an Egg Roll Dispenser... Fortune cookies would be nicer....or a sake bar....<drool> DriverXa 03-30-2007, 04:09 AM if they gave u a crave case I'd definitly buy one. roXor_boXor 03-30-2007, 04:21 AM I want to know if the rear seat leg room is still has huge as it is in the current model. Ditto. That could be a primary deciding factor for me. todasiracing 03-30-2007, 04:30 AM I want to know if the rear seat leg room is still has huge as it is in the current model. Ditto. That could be a primary deciding factor for me. Leg room front = 40.7 Leg room rear = 38.0 Shoulder room front = 55.8 Shoulder room rear = 54.7 roXor_boXor 03-30-2007, 05:59 AM So you are saying they lost 5 inches of front seat legroom? Where are you getting that? rishio 03-30-2007, 06:34 AM hmm.. bigger on the outside... smaller on the inside? Interesting... beau_boy04 03-30-2007, 07:31 AM the car is coming out pretty sooon right? if price and gas mileage is the samar or 1-2% difference then I will drop my plans and get the 08 |
