Default My idea of cool...

hi guys... i've been slumming around this message board for quite some time now and looking into the xB. (actually my wife says i'm obsessed with it).

anyway, i think that the option of the JDM bench seat and steering column auto shifter is a hot set up... but then again I drive a 1984 volvo 240 wagon with burberry curtains.

what's everyone else's take on the seat/shifter set up? i do know that the bench would interfere with a manual trans, but i personally think that this car comes off as a cruiser as opposed to a sprinter.

by the way.... my name is chris (just incase you couldn't figure that one out from my username)

I look forward to many posts and the eventual ownership of the camo xB.

kdawg's box is bad as hell. i'm a big fan of the flat black rims. (especially sw388's)

Hey......you wouldn't be the first transitioning from a 240 Volvo to an xB. Both my brother and I owned 240s before our xBs.

Before I started posting here, I would read the posts almost all day, and I was told by quite a few people that I was obsessed... Made my girlfriend pretty mad.. We would be watching a movie or something, and all I could think about was the xB, and I'd get up in the middle of the movie and get on scionlife.com...

Anyways, welcome to the board...

Camo popularity is going up now, hehe...

i am not a big fan of bench seats. mainly because the third person in the front gets in the way and i like my own space. converting would be fun and you would end up with a right hand drive xB

oh i agree man had they had a bench seat and column shifter for stateside i would have been tempted by the dark side of driving auto. Everytime i see a jdm interior i get just a touch jealous.

anyways welcome to the boards.
