I paid around $17,600 for mine due to the fact that it was an automatic and there were also the other dealer costs involved as well. I got number 476 on the Envy. I too have a Hot Lave and its plate is number 437. I had to wait a little over a week to get mine from the dealer after I purchased it.

Andrew, that is so cool, you have Green and Orange (peas & carrots). I love the Hot Lava maybe even more than the Envy, but to get new... Envy it is. Is your Lava an automatic as well? I drove both and was concerned that first gear in the manual was too low. I figured I wouldn't even use it.

Congrats 2 U!

It was listed on the sticker as " Distributer Additional Options" My father has a Highlander and his Cruise Control is identical to mine in the xB. (Bought his highlander the same day as I bought the xB, how cool is that)

It is a perfect fit to the steering column, so I would say that Toyota (scion) may have put it in aftermarket, but it is designed for these cars to look factory.

Functionally, it works great. . . it does take a very brief second when you press the set button for it to engage, but not anything that would even be though of as annoying. . . you just have to remember to hold the gas a second longer until the systems grabs the speed.

I was wondering if Scion doesn't put Front Plate holders on these. . . In North Carolina it is not required because we dont have front tags, but I have seen a lot of pics in the forums of Envys that Had them installed. . . My xB did not have one and I would like one for a vanity plate. Any Ideas or Info would be appreciated.

You can order a custom front plate bracket from eight08 customs. I have one installed on my RS 3.0, and I love it. This way, you don't have to have any holes drilled in your car.

I ordered my RS 3.0 xB last Wednesday or Thursday. Dealer called today and said it was in. Can't pick it up till tomorrow though as they were adding the leather seats and it wouldn't be ready until tomorrow evening. I can't wait to see it! Will post again once I've picked it up tomorrow.

I dont have any mods on it yet...but I still love it. Everyone says that they like it and it is so much better than my other car. I cant wait to get tires and rims and lower it just a bit. My boyfriend is going ti help me out with some of it, because he loves my car just as much as I do. He is just so jealous...lol...I have gone everwhere with it and put on the miles to prove it. I have about 250miles since Saturday, but thats because I had to drive from El Monte to Fontana, which is 50 miles away, to Chino Hills another 40 back to Fontana, to El Monte, to Fontana, to Chino, to work which is only 2 miles away, to school today, about 10 miles each way, back to Fontana....so I have been very busy. Plus I have to go back to El Monte today to turn in my old car, back to Fontnan, and then back to Chion tonight...lol...I just love my car that much that I want to keep driving everywhere.....anyways...Im sure you dont want to read any more so yea!! I know its hard but after waiting for amost 2 months, it is so worth the wait!!
