Longo Scion shows three XBs on the lot. One is solar yellow--it shows it is a 2004 and it has a price tag way over 20,000 dollars. Longo Toyota is the largest Toyota dealer in the country. There is just no stock on XB's to speak of anywhere.

The 04' one is their old showcar. It was yellow long before Scion knew what color the RS 2.0 was going to be It is so expensive because of the mods that were done to it.

Default RS 2.0 a bust?

I drove onto a dealer's lot last Thursday in Orlando. Only xB visible was a 2.0 that looked like it just came off the truck. Still had what looked like the shipping info scribbled on the window. I had been hoping to drive a standard trans, and this one had one. I was not expecting to even see a 2.0 as all xB's have been pretty scarce around here. The dealer had added $2K to the price, but sold it to me at list. I suspect bird in the hand rather than hold out for a better offer. While I was signing papers at least one other person came in wanting it.

So thanks to Scion for not picking a color that is "in style."
Uh my wife has a yellow dodge dakota pickup truck. It's not exactly a unique color.

Right! Yellow was unique in 2000. Now it is common place and overdone. I still think LIME green would have been a much nicer color but they didn't listen.
