David,

Yup, that's where I saw the bBx concept and said to myself, "I'm going to buy that car!"

I'll let you know what day I decide to go on.

It would have been nice to display, but I wouldn't want to have to watch my xB like a hawk and have something thiefed off of the car.

i went on Sat night the 19th.....show was ok...nothing special or really "new".....i mean, i've seen what, about 98% of the car on the street already.....

but i did find something interesting at the Scion booth....eventhough i own a 05 tC already...i checked out the tC at the show.
i got to the tC and the door was locked....for ***** and giggles i decided to try my key. surprisingly it unlocked...but the chip in the key didn't match the car so the ignition didn't turn..... kinda scary tho...might have to try it on my friends tC.....

Woah, that's scary! What's up with that?

Well, I was hoping to avoid the Thanksgiving crowd by going during the week, but it look like Sunday is the only day I can go.....

Anyways, was Scion giving out free stuff? I'm gonna need to make my $8 back...haha

I was disappointed in the show... some cool things...

I was really disappointed in scions booth... Just the green tc with the injen sticker on it... with the wrong show board. It was the showboard off the 5 axis tc...
