Just ordered my xA
From Spartan Toyota/Mitusbishi/Lexus/Scion in Lansing, MI. Sucks it's an hour and a half away from me, but the drive was worth it. I liked the test drive - it was basically everything I thought it was going to be. The car doesn't accelerate worth crap, but that's no problem...I was looking for a good daily driver that would be reliable, comfortable, quiet, good on gas, that looked cool, and would be fun to drive.
I ordered a manual xA in Phantom Grey Pearl (that color looks so good in person).
I also got the following accessories:
- rear spoiler
- cf exterior accents
- TRD lowering springs
- TRD shocks
- TRD short shifter
- TRD exhaust
- TRD clutch
- 5-spoke hubcaps (for winter use...getting some nice rims for summer)
- Floor mats (lol...wOOt)
- Silver pedals
- brushed grey interior pieces (darker than the stock silver)
- red LED enhancements
- Scion security
- Hotchkiss strut bar
I'm planning on getting a set of Excel Maj 17"x7" rims with 215/45/17 tires...would that fit under the lowered stance?

Anyway, I'll take pics and stuff whenever I get it...should be within the next month. I can't WAIT!

And yes, Phantom Gray is the best color.
Congrats on your car. Post 'em when you get 'em.

If you want improved acceleration, add cold air induction and a 2.25" exhaust. (I also have the TRD sport muffler.) It really helped mine with accelerating onto the freeway and with passing.
