don't hold your breath, it's not gonna happen. As much as I want it to, I won't be looking foward to the final series xA.
You guys just got the final series xA. They aren't making anymore of the A or B after December and I doubt they will make another RS 2 only months after the 3 for you guys. Either way, I see how you guys could be kinda ticked.

Hmmm.... A new XB for me?? This would be number 3 LOL.
Considering it....
I think this one ties the Hot lava orange as best Release Series color.

I might buy one of these & put it in storage. It'll be worth a good chunk of money in about 10 years. ( ^_^)

LMAO... maybe I'm just a hater, but to me the only difference between RS 4 and the other RS's, is the previous 3 looked good.

To be honest, I was thinking about getting rid of my current custom plates that say "LCNSPLT" and replacing them with "POOBROWN" when I get my rs box.

The only logic (and I'll admit it's not very logical) is that they are charging the same price for both transmissions and extra on the manual for the fancy shifter ****. Hmmmm!

"Classier?" Reminds me of poopy-dooty-kaka brown. I would have thought in keeping with the bright colors of the first 3 R.S. that they would go for a bright electric blue not brown.

the color is wacky enough, but I like the package on the 3.0 better. The DVDs are way cool. Of course, they could always be added for the same price as the 3.0!
Can't wait to see one in person.

No way would I own one - any and all paint chips would be horendous to fix w/ the shifting paint. You can't use a bottle of "touch up" on that sort of paint.

Not really impressed with the color. I agree the new RS should have been a bright color, I would have loved a bright blue. Nothing worse than a rainbow poop.

Decent color, but why does a limited edition with a 2k paint job still sport 20 dollar hub caps when argueable the wheels are the most important accessory on the car?

I wondered that myself with the 3.0. My guess is that they figure everyone would change the wheels any way and put their own style on there. However, if my 3.0 had better stock wheels I would have probably left them there. I ended up getting some used wheels cause i couldn't stand looking at the hub caps.

because wheels would have added another 1000 to the price tag. 1000 that could be used on your own style. this question gets asked EVERY time an RS is annouced.

And considering that personal customization has been the ethos of Scion, it's a great decision to put hubcaps on the RS'.

All previous RS's have been better than one before them I thought that the last Xb would Truly kick ****. Maybe small nav or Different bigger Rims, Or I would have like same packges as 2nd RS tc.

Thought last RS would go out with a Bang but now this just a poop (I mean pop)!

I totally concur! That color -yuck! looks like doggie doo doo. How about a purple to green? Isn't there a paint like that?
Scion screwed up with this color...but I guess you can even sell doggie doo doo if you spend enough $$$ on marketing!
