After a few weeks of heavy-duty research and deliberation, I order a 2006 xB today. I ordered the camo metallic, which is the color I've wanted from the beginning. The dealer told me that he'd do his best, but that it had been officially discontinued. It's still up on the build-you-own section of scion.com. I've also read on here that others have received camo xBs in the last month or so. Does anyone know if there is an official cut-off for camo? The new salsa red and shadow mica paint samples were both on display. I really, REALLY want a camo xB. Does anyone have any info on how good my chances are? I should know for sure by the end of next week.
Thanks,
Rod

 

HE is a dumb @$$. Its still being made tell mid modle year. I just got my Camo xB yesturday no problem. Just needed to wait about 3 weeks to get it. I got mine in 5spd no options.

 

congrads chuck, didnt u ahve a xb before?

 

Nope. Before yesturday, I was a spectatore to this whole "scion" thing

 

Awesome, thanks Chuck. I'm really glad to hear that... I was worried that had waited too long.
I got mine no options as well... it's hard to justify the cost when you can do most of that stuff yourself for half (or less) of the cost.
I don't think the dealer is really dumb, there just doesn't seem to be very good communication between scion and the dealers about stuff like this. He has actually been really patient and helpful... I'm emailed him almost daily about stuff for two weeks, and not once did he stop being friendly and informative.
Anyhow, thanks

 

Thats good then. Most of the dealer style letters I have seen, say camo will be around until december or so. Thats when they are going to give it the RIP & bring out the new colors. So I figure end of this year start of next when things kick off. Yeah the whole dealer parts cost is what got me.

 

Why did you post that you have an CMxB with mod's. It's not cool to lie.

 

^^^HUH^^^ who are you talkin bout? Chucksu has mods done plus much stuff that still needs to be added!

 

I thinking he is talking about the OG poster of the topic. Under his sn it say he has a camo, while yet he is asking about them, so he can buy one

 

"Why did you post that you have an CMxB with mod's. It's not cool to lie."


Give him a break, he's ordered one....

 

Yeah, I ordered it Saturday, but you're right, I don't have it yet. So I guess listing it as a vehicle I own was a bit premature. I didn't mean to offend anyone's delictate sensibilities... I'm just super excited to have one on the way. I've already ordered lots of stuff for it, so it's mine in my head I have altered my profile accordingly.

 

Don't sweat it Bro! You can't help that they didn't have it in stock. Someone just had their panties in a bunch. He didn't really mean what he said

 

My Mom is having an '06 Camo xB shipped from Florida.

 

I just got my Camo xB tonite... manual, no options, I LOVE IT. I cant wait to drive it to work tomorrow.

 

Congratulations CHUCKSU!!! You've waited so long!!! :D


OP: Good luck! I hope the Camo comes thru for you...that was our original choice also....Great color!!! :D
