Hello to all our new Scion brothers and sisters!

We just purchased a new 2011 xB on the 20th.
I knew for quite awhile when the time came for a new car it would probably be the xB.
Well, our Focus SVT got totaled the end of April and I immediately stated comparing, but knew the xB was going to be hard to beat. For the money, the standard features are pretty much head and shoulders above any thing else out there. Also, I get a rebate back from Toyota! Done deal!

Here are a couple pic's after putting on some new wheels. Fog lights are on back order. Going to start looking a available lowering springs next.

 

Looks great! Can't wait to see what you do with it Welcome to the Scion family :D

 

I like it.
Welcome on board!
Happy modding...and you're right, you can't beat it for the price.

 

cool nice wheels on the xb.
and u got it on the 20th.
my anniversary with my gf woot!

 

congrats! I see the mod bug is on top of schedule

 

that is one clean xb. congradz!!

 

congrats. your going to drive yourself crazy while deciding what to buy next.

 

Hey, who stole my Enkei PKR's??

 

Welcome aboard looks clean!

 

We picked up our 2011 Army Rock on the 21st and are loving it. What are you talking about when you say rebate?

 

I think either college grad or military rebate.

 

Employee rebate. I work at TMMTX.
Also, they had a $1000 off the day we went and picked it out.
Don't know if that was Scion or the dealer.

 

congrats!

 

The 11 is really starting to grow on me

 

Looks great -- enjoy !

 

Congrats on your purchase!

Did those wheels come with your xB2.2? I would have stayed with the stock set, IMO.

 

I would cover up those two ugly reflects on the rear bumper

 

Congrats RicRat! From one "older guy" to another, methinks you made a fine choice getting the xB. Let the modding begin, well, after deciding what to do and in which order and then seeing new stuff other Boxes have then changing your mind and redoing the modding list then firmly deciding what you're going to do and seeing someone else' Box and...

My first mod was simple: Dashmat. Recommended by RocketGyrl for better sound (protects the dash, too) .

I'm not too fond of the round reflectors in the bumper, but that's the way the Corolla here and in Japan have them. I DO like the newer turn signals with the reverse lights in them (WAY better than the single bummer, I mean bumper mounted light).

 

You need to do the H8 reverse light mod, check out my pics on post #58 of page 3:

If there is so much concern about the look of the reflectors, maybe someone can come up with converting them to stop lights using LED's. While on the subject of 2011's has anyone removed the fake air inlets on the front bumper and converting them to lights or real air inlets?By the way the name Graywolf 06 has nothing to do with my Xb looking gray in the photo it's for my 06 Miata.
