Default GOOD BYE, SCION COMMUNITY & SCION EVOLUTION...

To all Scion owners & Fellow Scion Evolution members,

I regret to inform you all of my leave of the Scion community as I no longer own my 05' Scion Xb. I have given in to the horse power pressures of Newage Mopar: On Friday July 7th, I parted with my White Xb and turned it in for a 2006 Pontiac GTO, 6.0 Liter V8 engine with 400 Horse power, 6 speed manual trany. I couldn't resist the 0% interest and all the features of the GTO.

SCION EVOLUTION: I must say that Scion Evolution has been the best car enthusiest experiance I've ever had, everyone, and I mean everyone in SE that I met, was cool. I never thought that a car club can be that freindly, helpfull and expecially fun. It breaks my heart to have to leave the community and all of its activities, I will miss the meets, shows & events moving forward. I do feel i will be missing out in a very fun future with Scion, but my experience has been enough to keep me attached to the community in a certain aspect. I see Scion Xb's rolling around soup'd up and I sometimes regret turning in my Box. My GTO certainly has features that outweigh the Scion in its own category.

I will miss everyone and everything of Scions & Scion Evolution

Here is a pictures of my Former Xb:



And here is a Picture of my new Pontiac GTO:



This is Carlos Albor turning in my badges & Evo Tags, signing off...

Regards & good luck to all. Peace!

Hey I dont know if you remember me, but Ive chatted w/ you a couple times at the OC meets in the hills. Say it aint so! Well you will be happy with that mean drift machine you just purchased. If you have any free time you know where all the SE people hang out and drop by sometime and say "whats up". Good luck and take care.

I owed $13,800, but I sold them on all the mods and upgrades. So they paid it off, and I used a down payment too. I didn't even have 15K miles on it yet.

Yeah, I was hair thin close to buying a Chrysler 300, but then they called me the next day saying they aren't going to give me the same deal anymore, My payments were going to go up and all that BS, so I told them you know what, cancel the deal, I'm not picking up the car today, then the finance guy say's, "well wait I have a few more banks to talk too, hold on a few hours", I told them No, your salesman just lost a deal because you want to make some more money. Then I went to Pontiac and found out that the 2006 was going to be the last year for the GTO, I said SOLD! The car will keep a higher resell value cause of that now, so I went for it. $31,700, for six years, with 0% interest. My payments are a little steap, but it's SO Worth it.
