Red Genie was planning to make an armrest too for the xBs
But it will block the handbreak... Even its something that an be fold away, its still stupid to remove/fold your armrest everytime you park the car

Default more on armrest console

I receaved an email from Dany, the mold has been made and the rear cup holder will probably be the lost item on the console. I still don't have a cost on item. as soon as I get more info I will keep everyone informed. Thanks for the interest hope to have a product soon. Bill Turner

I'd be interested in an armrest. I'd also like to see a 12v acc plug in it if possile, or some way to easily mod. it for an additional plug. if this could happen and it was at least semi-affordalbe, I'd get in line to pick mine up ..

That is the one thing i hate most about the XB. No arm rest. it sucks. it is so uncomfortable plus you can't lean to the side and look coo in yo ride. My friend has a 2002 honda civic where he has a armrest on the drivers side right side. It flips up and down like the arms at the movie theater, but theres no thing to put yo bladder buster soda. Thats exactly what the scion needs.
