I'm sad they called it an xB, because it's not. I'll keep my REAL xB.

That car is horribly UGLY, way to screw up a good thing Scion

I thought from pictures that it would be kind of blah, but I got to see it in person last night and it is BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I was shocked to say that I like it even better than my original xB, the thing is hot.

The inside is really cool, the upgraded stereo you can get in the thing looks awesome and you gotta get excited about the 2.4 motor! Trust me, in person the thing works.

This new Xb is awesome. TOMOCO never ceases to amaze me! I am a prior owner of a first gen Xb. This design makes me want to go get three of them!

Although the new Xb bears a striking resemblence to the 2007 Daihatsu Materia. (released in Paris 2006) I still love the lines and new upgraded HP in the Xb.

Let me know if anyone agrees with my opinion of similarities

anybody else notice that it had factory cruise control?
That's big for me as I like to travel. I like the sport shifting
as well. I wonder what the RS package will be?

No. According to the write up;

The xB also stops with larger brakes thanks to the 10.83-inch ventilated discs in the front and 10.98-inch disc brakes in the rear which are more than two inches bigger than the previous generation.

Wait ...





well smack my ___ and call me .... I cant believe that at Miami the 5 Axis had the 1.8L in it, now 2 months later it has a SC tC engine. Now that is interesting to say the least. Could that possibly mean that one could do an engine swap on the new xD as well? Now that woud be something to see. Tiny lil red car with a 2.4L that is SC'ed, one hell of a sleeper IMO. I know i have seen plenty of wrecked tCs here in NJ ... so an engine swap would cost that much. So whos up for it?

I will fill you in on more detail stuff later. Just wanted to say, keep on posting so I can see where we stand.
Common Troy .... spill it! LOL Can you at least spill the beans as to if the kit for the xB2 will be availible for the first models over? Hows about the exhasut too, will that also be availible on the first to hit our shores?

Thanks again for all your hard work on making these 2 models to help push the Scion brand.
