Another "blue" RS xA? The Toyota Vitz comes available with 8T0. I'm assuming 8T1 is a different shade of blue.

No matter how good HL would look on our much anticipated 3, I don't see Scion re-using any special edition colors....kinda makes it less special. Like they were cleaning out the basement and found some left over paint in the corner....



But, come to think of it, that is how we are already treated.

I hope Scion execs are watching this sight esp this thread to see how we feel they are treating us.

I kinda doubt that anyone higher than salesmanager ever reads this...And that is not a slap at all the salesguys that are here.. without you guys, we'd have less than get now!!! Almost every tidbit of info we ever get is from a guy wanting to make a living....

It is getting pretty clear that Scion is banking on the xB and the tC....xA's?? Go take a seat.. they sold less than they expected, so they want to act like they didn't sell any.
If you look at the 3 models, the xA has had the least complaints and no recalls!
I wouldn't get rid of my xA with a gun to my head, but to just be drug along like we are is infuriating. OK, the rant is winding down....

I talked to a representative about the RS3 release and 2007 models and whether or not to purchase an xA now. He said there was no official information he could give me, but he'd wait until the information WAS released until buying an xA.

OK, since this is no longer speculation, let's continue the conversation in the new topic:
