TheSaint77

spotted a grey Gen 1 XB about 20 mins ago coming off deerfoot onto southland west. Young guy, kinda big with a beard. I think I've seen him before. I got my car with me today so he obviously didn't notice me.

Did you tag any of those TC's at school D?

k3k5

black one - yes
white one no, but i keep on seeing him either downtown or anywhere in neighborhood of 14st and northmount dr...
btw saw that buddies yellow xb1 parked at speedtech on 32ave, but i was in a hurry so didnt get a chnace to stop
in bout 3 weeks i should be driving my xb, so it be easier to get attention... if all the parts arrive on time, then april meet ill represent with rs 5 :p

k3k5

tagged yellow gen1 outside my work. fully tinted, dropped, rear wiper removed, mufller, i think 15" alloy enkeis, manual with alluminum shift ***.... hopefully shows on sunday... if my suspension arrives on friday, then i will bring my xb to the meet.. wheels arrived today

TheSaint77

Was it another RS?

I joined up to the ScionCanada page on Facebook, just in case some local people only search there for Calgary happenings.

yes sir... never seen it before... lets see what happens on sunday

TheSaint77

hey, D, here's the link from the 2011 XB thread. Lotsa pics of the new model

http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/17/s...iced-for-2011/

I'm not a big fan of the rear bumper reflectors

k3k5

not gonna lie, i dont like it... i mean i know all xbs are ugly and that why we like them, lol.. but this one is just.. i dont even know...and when you add body kit like that, at least lower the freaking car.. and as far as i can see, the only diiferences are: body kit, hood and back up lights... so whats the point? its like russian LADA.. which has a lot of models but they all look the same lol. verdict: 2011 XB
ill just hunt those tails down and istall them on my RS this way i can get rid of the lonely back up light i have without any problems...

TheSaint77

Good idea. That one backup light never looked right to me.

k3k5

talked to my mechanic.. he's sayiing that might be pain in the ___ to do.. cuz of the wiring and stuff.. dunno we'll see...
how bout that club403? free?

TheSaint77

Looks like it, I can't find anything on google. I'll do a lil more searchin today.

Also, spotted a grey Gen1 last night on 32nd Ave and 35th St NE. Female driver, looked like it had 2 winter tires on the back and regular rims on the front.

I'll put up the new flyer tonight too!

TheSaint77

ok, time to put it to a vote. 3 names we can go by

And even the lurkers can vote on this too, what should we be called??

Options:



on the last one, we can of course add an 's" on the end of it.

thoughts?

k3k5

i was thinking of 403scion club... so ill vote for that... if anyone good at drawing, we should hand draw a sign.. sort of urban gaffiti style? if not ill see what i can do, used to play around with it in high school.. and post it here

TheSaint77

or another one: C-SPOT SCIONS; as Calgary is sometimes called the C-spot.

TheSaint77

Welcome!

Black XB. Were you the guy that pulled up beside me on 9th Ave and chatted with lil while ago?
I never saw a decepticon badge on any XB in town, so this could be cool considering I've got the Autobot badge on the back gate of mine

Yup, on the 24th is the next meet.
However there is a car show on the 18th that we may make an appearance at. I'll know by the end of the day if I"m going for sure.

TheSaint77

Ok, for possible names so far:

Club 403
Calgary Scions
403 Scions
403 Scions Club
C-Spot Scions
Scion EyeD


I'm still not set on a certain one. Keep 'em comin though!

jaredtiller

yes that was me you saw on 9th.

I think it is funny how you have the Autobots badge and you car is white for the good transformer team and how mine has the Decepticon badge and my car is black for the bad team. that worked out nice.

TheSaint77

Indeed it did. I'm actually getting a new badge put on today to replace the current one which has rusted out. I had plans for a whole graphics package but money fell short.

and i"m lookin to get new wheels soon too.

jaredtiller

yo what kind of headlights do you have? i have an extra set of Black Halo Projectors. so if you know anyone who might be interested... haha anyway i have the same set on my car which you will see on the 24th.
