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?

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.

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...

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!

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.

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.

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.
