Any body order one in the New England area. I have a 5 speed due in 
This should be a nice ride, less made than my whip. :?

an RS 1.0 xA just arrived at the dealership this morning (#40, MT). i must say it looks pretty damn good in person. but, its just screaming to be lowered. whoever decided to change from the TRD wheels to the enkei wheels deserves a promotion/raise, or at least a hardy bonus.

Hurricane Francis delayed the arrival of ours. It arrived at port in Jacksonville Friday. We should get it toward the end of this week. I'm having cruise control and keyless entry added. By the way, it is a 5 speed. We plan on adding tint and springs at a latter date.

Stuff Magazine Ad...
Well I don't know if this is a repost or not, I've tried searching a few key words and nothing solid has come up--this is a real world ad that is on shelves now...
xA by Release Series: Available September 2004.
One of 1550
(Picture a Red xA with 18" TRDs)
Absolutely Red Paint
Absolutely Red Rear Spoiler
Absolutely Red Sport Grille
Moonroof
Red Storage Box Illumination
Individually Numbered Badging
Exclusive Interior Fabric
VSC and Traction Control
There hasn't been a better time to want an xA...I think they did a way better job with this one, considering it has things that are actually benificial over the regular xA, such as Moonroof AND VSC and Traction control...how badass is that?

Ours was due last Monday but I'm now being told This Monday. Due to a lot of weather problems in this area lately.

xA Release Series 1
I picked up number 54 on the 24th.
Wouldn't it be cool to get a bunch of Scions to take a lap at Road Atlanta ... I can the boxes and axes taking the last down hill turn.

First one arrived in Houston today. It was #82. I told a friend about it a couple months ago and he put down a deposit. The windows are being tinted tomorrow morning and he picks it up in the afternoon.
I was right next door at Kohl's when it came in and I had to drive over and check it out. I love that red. I think I would add the red steering wheel and the different tail lights and that would be about it. It could be lowered (and that is something I NEVER say) but not too much.
When he wrote the check for this one, he put his deposit down on a tC. I would love to see the tC in that red.

Just had lunch with 4 other coworkers. They were average size... not fat nor skinny.. 5'6" to 5'10". The 3 of them who sat in the bad said it was quite comfortable. hahha.. :D They were amazed that I got the car for under 17k.
What they didn't know is that I was kinda amazed that the car can still move swiftly with 5 adults in the car. One of them actually asked if this is a 4-cylinder or 6.... lolz~!!! I guess the Redness plus the sport look and the not-too-shabby acceleration with 5 adults got him the wrong impression... hehehe
Now I better remember to get some wheel locks for my baby, just like my coworker suggested.
This fatbastard loves his new baby. Now his doggie better keep her innocent little paws away from the car.. or some one is going get skin~!!!! lolzzz..

i own a tC but just wanted to say i drove by our Scion dealer today and saw a series 1.0 xA and it looked great...makes me even more ticked that i couldn't get a tC in Absolutely Red which is what i wanted...
