Default I want a LAVA, but I'm in Chicago....

Hey whats up everybody. I'm in the market for a new xB, only one problem for me. I am located in Chicago, and Scions can't be sold until June15. I have asked if they could order a Hot lava for me, or trade for one from another dealership. They say that we can't sell ANY 04's in the midwest or they lose like 30% of stock. Anyway. I am going to be down in Alabama next week, so does anybody in the south or anywhere near that, know a dealership that has one?? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx all

- Jeffrey

Try the Websites for the southern dealers like scottclarkscion.com. They have a search feature that you can find the Scion you want and where to get it.

My local dealer didn't have what I wanted and said that they had to have a $500 deposit to put me on the waiting list for one. I went to the dealer site above and found the manual camo xB I was looking for. The next day it was mine.

Call MARTY at TUSCALOOSA (alabama) SCION!

...not that I haven't posted that a million times already.

Last I knew he had a Hot Lava - may still - if not - he may be able to trade for one. If there is one available, Marty is the guy who can get it for you. CALL HIM!!!!

:? I'm in Northwest indiana (5 minutes from Chi town) and 'm getting my xB from team Toyota/Scion in Highland. I wanted a hot lava but they told me that midwester states wont get any. Soooooo I settled for the thundercloud metallic instead since it was already at the port, Hope you have good luck in finding one down south!

where at in AL? Reason I ask is that there's a dealer I know of that has one - but will do everything in their power to f&%$ you. "Pure pricing" and all that crap does not fly with them - they are there to fleece you and they have a million horror stories to go with it.

dood, it was the dealership that you referred me to. If they are in the habit of screwing people over, I have no need to deal with them. Espescially if I'm 800+ miles away. Thanx man

LOL.

STAMPY - No, I was not referring to Tuscaloosa Scion - Marty is a good guy and he's not going to screw you.

You'll do fine where you're at (Tusc.) - and tell Marty I said 'hey'. He likes to know where/why his customers come from.
