I've been looking at getting a new car for the last few months and finally decided on getting a Scion Xb. I was ready to go down to the dealership and place my order this week until I found out about the RS 3.0. As soon as I saw pictures of it I knew I wouldn't be fully satisfied without a RS 3.0. I'm wondering what is the best way to find one now that it appears to me that most have already been sold. Is there a way to check dealer inventories or do I just need to start calling dealerships across America?

Go to Scion.com. Use the find a dealer option. Go to the dealer page and click the picture of the xB. It will pull up the inventory listing for that dealer. It will also show the number of vehicles in the region. Click the number of vehicles in the region and it will display all of them. Use the accessory dropdown to select RS 3.0 as a required accessory and it will display those vehicles. There are currently 2 RS 3.0s in the Southeast. One is a manual and the other an automatic.

I don't know where you are at but in the Bay Area, i have seen a few at the dealership. Not sure if they are heavily "modded" with $2000 rims, $1500 sunroof and $1395 leather seats or not though...

I was looking for RS2 a few months after the release and was only left with those cars that dealers are trying to rip you off with.... which made the wait for RS3 that much painful but man.. RS3 is worth it!!

Thanks ggguy77 that helped, but I'm running into some problems. Half of the dealership web sites don't have their cars listed online and I have gone over all dealerships within 300 miles of my hometown. I live in the Chicago land area and found an Auto nearby but not a manual anywhere. I'm willing to travel out of state to get a car, but can't seem to find one in the midwest.

Anyone know where there is a manual RS 3.0 for sale anywhere? I'd prefer not to have to travel across the US to get one...but would definitely consider it.

Someone suggested that I call a local dealership and have them check regional inventories. Is that possible?

there are a few more than 2. about 28 of them in fact.

SndGenRX7

Any information on those 28? Or the 2?

About half of the ones left are jacked up in price.

The one I have on the floor has some chrome, armrest, interior lights, and mats. It's 18.3k.

As of May 23 there was an RS 3.0 available in the KC area. Call Roger Smith & Sons at (800) 388-2417 and ask for Mo.
