The girl I overheard at my dealership said the 06 xA was going to be late August/early September. She also said the 06 xB's will be cheaper than the 05 xB's. Didn't say anything about the xA's price. Oh well, i already got my 05 xA, i'll just deal with it. ^.^

If you read the other articles, the prices are going to go up about two hundred bucks.
But by way of the new additions to the model, it would come out cheaper to get the new one instead of adding the features to you old car.

Cheaper yes, cheaper No.

i don't think she is that wrong. yes the cars are being shipped to dealerships this week but do take into account the wait time at the dock, the transpacific journey, inspection on our side of the dock, the journey from the dock to dealerships. all this take time. i say by august or sept the earliest...

I don't know where you are at but in CAT (Central Alantic Toyota, or MD, PA, WVA,VA, Dc, DEL) we wont see the 2006 xA's & xB's till late Aug or early Sept, they are making them right now (in Japan) but it takes a bit of time to get them here, we haven't even been allocated any 06's yet, when we do they will be 3 - 6 weeks away next allocation in on the 15th after that the 1st ....

how you doing? Does this means then that:

"The xA and xB will begin arriving at Scion dealerships next week." -http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/050708/laf011a.html?.v=2-

statement is false!!!!???? BASSSSSSTAAAARRRRDSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

ohh well I guess I should buy myself some Prilosect OTC, look for a hobby to keep me entretained for the wait and pretend like I do not need and want the car.....


Nonetheless thanks for the realistic talk, Niks.

Default ookkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

To instigate a littile bit more, here is another source that also says that 06 should be out this week:

"The 2006 Scion xA and xB models, which go on sale this week, will also see their prices raised. "
http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=106384

I guess there is also a possibility that edmund is using the previous article disucussed here as their source.....



have a good day,
