Hi guys,

Glad to see such an amazing community around the xB.

I'm looking to buy one. Trying to weigh options of how to get one.
I know exactly what I want.

White 2nd gen xB with the Five Axis kit.

I'm in the LA area. Here are some options I'm considering:

1. New xB. No miles Stock. Then asking dealer to give me a deal on a Five Axis Kit installed. Rims too if possible.
2. New xB. No miles Stock. Then buying it aftermarket Five Axis Kit from a store somewhere and having it installed.
3. Used xB. Under 5K miles. Stock. Then buying it aftermarket Five Axis Kit from a store somewhere and having it installed.
4. Used xB. Under 5K miles with Five Axis kit already installed.

Looking for the right balance between cost and availability. For example, the first option will likely be most costly but depends on how much more cost than the other options. Might be willing to pay a little extra to avoid the headache and avoid miles on a used car. Also, I noticed that used xBs don't really depreciate a lot and some sellers are asking too much for a car that's a few years used ($22K with 10K+ miles in some cases just because it has some customization).

If aftermarket purchasing of Five Axis is necessary, just wondering the cheapest way to go about it. If I can get it cheap parts + install, looking for specific shops in the LA area who will do it cheap.

Thanks so much for your help!
