Default the tC is cool and all but . . .

my wife wanted something different and traded in my tC for an xA. We got tired trying to haul people with a 2-door car. We also got sick of everytime we were at an intersection pick up's or honduh's tried to race us. Since she didn't want to wait for the yaris or an get an xB since I have one (that she used all the time) we went to the scion guys for the xA. This is our fourth toyota/scion and I have to say this was the BEST experience I have had at any dealership BAR NONE. THEY RULE as you can see under my avatar it is polar white.

Will post pics as soon as we get her parts installed.


THANKS JEFF AND CHARLES!!!!!

Congrats on the new XA. Jeff/Charles do their best to get things done. I got my 2 xb'x from the Scion Guys, and they are the best. Congrats again on your ride.

He has one little problem, it is an 06 and the JPUSA kit wont fit. Although the car is already for the 06 Kenstyle whenever they release that.

The xA is slower but has more room than the tC. Four to two doors is a plus when u got 4 or more people plus bags. Do miss the sunroof maybe I can add it on later. By the way I am stealing my husbands wheels this weekend. Shhhh

That's cool! I wonder, is that also using the Echo chassis?
