hey guys, yes we are staying warm up here!!! its like 15degrees right now and its not too bad. its was below zero for awhile yesterday.

yeah i was thinking about getting one before june, but this gives me time to save up and also pay off some dept from my old car (project gsr) i also wouldnt want to drive it in the winter.

Man, I would have freaked out if I had to wait 6 months to buy the car I wanted! You guys must have the patience of a saint. I would have had to wait 3 or 4 months to get an XA with side airbags, so I bought one without them.

ItsMeArjay, it's a tough choice... the rugged and manly XB, which peeps either LOVE or HATE, or the racey, sporty, more socially acceptable XA... Collect the whole set!

Ya' sure you don't want to take a flight to somewhere that has them already? Like Virginia perhaps? I've got your color in both 5 speed and automatic and they all come with a free 6 disc CD!

Hey everyone. I'm new here as well. I've been reading since Feb. but didn't really have anything to say. I was just trying to learn everything I could about the xA before I decided to get one.

I live in Oregon and so I'm saving for my down payment and come June I will be getting a silver streak mica xA. I'm quite excited as it will be my first car that is new. I've had a old Neon beater up until now and I really wanted to buy something that is new, fairly inexpensive and that I can do stuff too. So... yeah. I'll be around

Welcome!!

I'm glad that the Scions are making its way throughout the country. I'm originally from Ontario, Canada and I'm visitin home in May, hopefully there will be some around there that I can point out to my friends and show them my polar white xA.
