some of you may have seen the quick post done earlier in another thread, sorry to be redundant but this is important. My girlfriend of 4 yrs has been working at the local toyota/lexus/scion dealer for almost seven years, I thought the sales team would look after me. I am not bad mouthing these guys but mistakes do happen, and can be easily over looked when things come to " we will take care of it" is the last thing you hear. last week I went down and ordered a 06 xb in salsa red with a stick, and was told that it was floating across the pond and as soon as it got here it was mine. Well, due to my having to be out of town on the delivery date, my g.f. will pick up the car for me. so yesterday we filled out all the papers and signed everything - essentially purchasing the vehicle- but there was a glitch- an automatic transmission on the sales ticket. I was cool with it for a second and then said I definitely want a shifter in my toaster. My only option without waiting another month was to pick another color. so the b.o.p was my second choice. SO READ EVERYTHING WHEN YOU ORDER in advance. I would have been really mad if I came home from a 4 hr. drive from atlanta to find the wrong car in my driveway, or in most peoples case, the day of delivery at the dealer. I am so anxious to get my xb that I probably would said f**k it and kept the auto , but we caught it and some dealers wont trade with others so make sure you get what you ask for. ( also got cruise, fog lights, armrest, t.r.d. cold air kit, mats, cargo cover )

 

Hey, dont worry about it man. You ended up with the best color anyway

 

hello fellow BOP guy!!! hahaha nice color choice! i know you wont be upset!!! and hey my thoughts on getting the upgrades from scion.... dont get thge cai from scion.... get it on another site after you guy it!!! itll be cheaper and they are easy to put in yourself!!!! but other than that good luck with them box and cant wait to see pics on the website!!!

 

thanks guys, I originally wanted the blue and the wait is so aggravating. as far as the upgrades go, read between the lines ... my girlfriend works at the dealership..........1/2 $.

 

i'd wait for the salsa 5speed

 

I don't know. the more pics I see of b.o.p. the more I am glad of my decision, plus I haven't owned a blue ride before. I am looking for a fastforward button , or a flux capacitor. anyone , anyone...........

 

I just bought the B.O.P and I originally wanted the salsa red, but when I saw the blue in person I thought it was so much prettier. I think it looks awesome under lights at nighttime.
