I think i see more PW than any other, but that's cause i pay attention to the white ones more.

 

thats cool...i see them alot out here too....

 

I was about 45 mins away from the OP's location, out at RIT in Rochester....last winter...and came up on two other boxes randomly there. (one RS 3 and one BSP, along with my TCM)

(Sorry for the crappy phone cam quality!)

 

I believe there's two other BOP's in my parking garage.
Both are bone stock though

 

and probably driven by old people, scions failed target audience.

 

^ very true snowromance

 

I don't know about that snowromance, it's a college garage with mostly resident cars...

 

I'm just happy to see they are getting more popular. Its kind of neat for me because in the village I live in there was mine, the one my mother bought and one other blue box but that was it. Now there is a total of 7 in an area of about 2 square miles that people have bought after seeing them around town.

 

I believe they do the bunny thing up here + I pass 2/3 Going to, from work every day

 

yea, there are three xbs on my street, 1 is modded, the other 2 are not. and its funnny cuz one of the guys that has one, his other car is a nice as porche 911 turbo.

 

TCM FTW

 

^^^Don't think so...BCP FTW!...

 

X2
I got a silly question... When did real xBs ever become unpopular?

 

Very true Jeff!

 

When people thought that the 2nd Gen xB was gonna be popular. We see that wasn't the case now was it?

 

I always held out faith that the xB2 wasn't gonna be all that. I feel like a fortune teller now.

 

Ok guys,
Nobody laugh, help me out here. I'm new with my xB and I always see different types? I mean I knew about the burnt penny one being different, but BSP,BOP, PW,TCM, RS 3, and more I probably didn't mention?
What are all of these, what does that mean? also, some say their boxes are year 2006.5... is that just if it was made after june 2006 or?

thanks all!

 

mine is technically 2006.5. i think it was a different interior fabric color and the addition of steering wheel controls. could be wrong though.

BSP, PW, TCM... all those are short for the color. like PW is Polar White.

 

They phased in a carbon trap, if you will, in the air box and ecu wiring changes after the '05s. I have an 05 so I really don't know what has changed other than those two things.

 

Ahh thanks snow, duhh that does make sense. hmm.. I wonder what mine is, I just know it was made in aug 06. and it does have the radio controls on the wheel
