Default rs 4.5 nautical blue?

After seeing the RS 6.0 I think All Nautical Blue owners should get a badge.

why is that? there is nothing special about NB except that they dont make it anymore... The RS 6 is weak, but still has some features that arent standard on all our xB's...

It's only special if you wear a helmet while driving.

WOW. Its just a little joke. As for the 6.0 it has nice features. But just that. I think Scion set a rather high bar with the 5.0 and just came up a little short. A joke is just that and sorry if I offended anyone.

NB is a sick color, personally i think the best one of the 2gen. The fact that they dont manufacture it anymore sucks. A advantages tho is that not too many people will have them in that color. I believe 20-40 years from now scions will be the next collector cars like vw's are. Im going to hang onto my NB for many years to come. Just a theory i have....

BCM FTW!!! ...lol Actually I like the red and who wants a bunch of crap Scion puts on them anyway. Buy it stripped and add what you like make it your own. Just my 2 cents.

Toyota hasn't released the official production numbers for the 2008 model year yet.

I really wish they would have produced the xB2 in Flint Mica like the tC... That is my favorite scion color... Not too dark, but dark enough with a little metallic for sum flavor...

By the looks of the scale on the chart, it equals the same amount as the Gold Rush Mica; 2500 (maybe). Nautical Blue is the SHARPEST and BEST looking color on the xB2's.

Those blocks on the chart are not a scale, they simply show which year(s) each color was produced.
