Default Future xB owner

I hate being a newbie....but here I am. I am planning on getting an 2006 PSB xB auto in the next week or two. Preferably before Sept 1. I just have to wait to close on our new house this Friday the 26th. Well if the dealership doesn't have what I want in stock, how long does it usually take for them to get it?

Take it easy on the auto choice. Plus the wife can drive it too. Even with a manual, it's not like it's going to keep up with my 7. I already have a manual in my 400 rwhp garage queen FD3S (1993 Mazda RX-7). With gas prices nowadays, we're comparing MPG's instead of HP's

The auto is good, especially in cities.

Yes, what is "PSB?"

Delivery times will vary by region. There's might be somebody in the "plains" forum that would know.

You should probably not wait to check with your local dealerships and see what's available.

Good luck on your purchase!

as for how long does it take to get to your dealers, it depends since most of the Scions arrive on trucks from SoCal. 2+ months if shipping from Japan...

My experience is that there are rarely any Scions "In Stock". So, order what you want from someone you like dealing with and wait it out like the rest of us.
