Default Got yellow fever... Seen xB RS 2.0 at the dealers lately?

Ever since i've seen xB RS 2.0, it is not coming out of my mind and I NEED TO GET ONE!!

Been calling Bay Area dealers but no success... Have you guys seen any at the dealer lately? Your lead is appreciated.

I haven't seen any in a while. Since it was a limited adition of 2500, I'd say they're sold out by now. I'd say you'll have to get one used or not at all.

Come to LI.
There is a fully loaded RS2 at my local Scion dealer.
It costs $25,000 though.

I'd be willing to bet there are still a few new ones around. We found my wife's by searching the web. We would type in the name of area towns or cities with the word Toyota or Scion after it. That would give us a list of all the dealers, then we would check their websites for inventories. We found here's in Rockville, MD which is over an hour away (in a different state) but we got it!

There's one on ebay, used, with under 1000 miles on it. It said it had gone out on a lease, and it fell through.

Yeah...I saw that one too. That guy is nuts. He's asking $18,995 for a used one. That's $2,595 more than we paid for ours brand-new. The only stuff his has that ours didn't come with are fog lights, TYC tail lights, floor mats and the rear bumper applique. That's NO WHERE NEAR $2,595 worth of stuff.

The last one I saw was at a Toyota Dealer in Marina Del Rey, CA. Check with them, that is the 310 area code.

Good luck!

Most of the dealer sites (accessible through scion.com) list their current inventories. If there's one out there, you should be able to find it.

I think I can help you find the RS 2.0 xB you are looking for. I will do a search on our special vehicle locator site and post where you can find one in the SF region.


We have one at Maita Scion of Sacramento.

It is our show car and will be available rather soon. It will run you about $30k or so because we put around $15k into it.









and it also has a moonroof but, I don't have pictures of that yet.

Hi Moriaty,

Thank you for doing the searches. I have visited Maita and the one that you guys have is a bit too much for me.

I will contact the dealers in Berkeley and Daly City. If it doesn't give you too much trouble, can you search who has this car in the US? I have shipped my cars from East Coast before and would do it again if necessary.

Thank you.... :

I would think you could bargain on the used scion. They are asking that price, but, they know the people are going to bargain them down. If they asked just the regular price of a new one, then, the person would have a bargaining chip of it has almost 1000 miles on it. Now, the dealer has a bargaining chip that it is a special edition, hoping to get the regular price on it, even though they have probably already made money off of the lease. Just a thought.

umm,.... I know you are not talking about our xB. the price we will ask for our xB will end up losing us a little bit of money. I am not saying this to me a martyr, I'm just sayin'.

Daramg, Yeah, ours is a little hooked up. I will get on the national search for ya ASAP.

Moriarty,

I tried all the dealers you mentioned. Some dealers have customized it beyond my imagination.

Thanks for doing the national searches for me.
