Spend that 100+ dollars on something that will last longer than the first oil change.

the floor mats aren't that bad. they wear out where the drivers feet go right away, but the rest of the mats are fine. i've had mine since the beginning of june and they still look like they did a week after i got them. i think they look good, although making your own is also fine to save money. i think the OEM floor mats are around $225.

its so hard to find the one i want...
it seriously has been a mission to find a dealer with one...
since they are supposed to get the black 5spd in within this week (hopefully)...
ill take the overpriced mats...
i cant go a month or more without a car since i already reported my saab as non operational... i miss my saab...
can i ask them to take the floormats out and deduct it from the total?
**how much did your scions come out to including tax (bare bones)?

My first car was a 1983 Saab 900 Turbo. I remeber when the tow truck took it away, but thats ok because now I have a Scion XB, and I couldn't be happier. I didn't get the flor mats either, I went to target and got some cheap ones for $13.00. And out the door I got mine for like 16,250 with the extended warranty. I am happy! Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.

My xB was around $15500 with tax. Trying to get a dealer to give you a firm final price is like pulling teeth. They will be happy to trade ballpark numbers and list prices all day but when it comes to the number that you will write on the check they are slipperier than an Enron executive dipped in butter. This was my experience at four different Scion dealers.

I got my Xb for either or close to invoice price. First lesson in business is that EVERYTHING is negotiable. Key is making your "opponent" believe that your proposal is giving him/her a good deal.
Good luck on getting your Xb. When you finally get it, it will be all worth it. I hated my Scion buying experience (better than buying Subaru). But, it was definitely worth it!

take this advice from someone who has been through hell and back to get one of these cars.. toyota of orange had my deposit for my white xB manual for 3 weeks and failed to deliver.. i called around and found toyota of long beach had my car "coming in".. i got my deposit from orange and paid for the car at long beach to avoid the hike in registration.. it has been a week since i paid 7k down for the car and still no car.. it came in today after having been promised it would "be here for sure today", on wednesday, thursday, and friday. it got there today, but the back bumper wasnt installed.. they couldnt install it because they "only had 1 tech there", so im supposed to be able to get it tomorrow at 12...
bottom line is... it will take *at least* 2 weeks from the time it starts showing up on their lists.. ive been through this so i know.. just take my advice and dont be dissappointed when it keeps being delayed, have a backup mode of transportation if you want one that's not on the lot, and put a deposit down with no expectations on the car once they get a VIN number... hope this helps, i will never deal with toyota again after this, maybe used, but definately not their dealerships.. its sad

Xb worries
I just wanted to say that Frontier Toyota, in Valencia, did a great job getting me my Xb. I also called every dealer south of Santa Barbra and in a week had 10 of them call me back saying they had what I wanted. Oh and no bull____ I didnt pay for my floormats or cargo net. That is standard, but they are trying to get you anyway. Good luck

i kinda got the runnaround with my dealer too, but in the end it was all good, took like 3 weeks to ge tit but i would recomned anyone to my dealer, he was at least honest on the delivery date, and he waited 3 days with the car on the lot for me to come get it, it had 2 mile on it and a full tank, if your still looking call rett at penske toyota in doweny, he helped me out bug time on my trade in too, gave me more than bluebook, which i was happy about, good luck and congrats if youve already recieved it

They were nice as pie until then, but they blew the deal when they insisted upon charging that fee.
