I just added production numbers to the this topic. You can see all 2008- production numbers on the first page of this post. Here is the 2009 update:

Absolutely Red 2266
Black Sand Pearl 4313
Blackberry Crush Metallic 2303
Classic Silver Metallic 4907
Gold Rush Mica 54
Hypnotic Teal Mica 1802
Murasaki 16
Nautical Blue Metallic 12
Sizzling Crimson Mica 1459
Stingray Metallic 3154
Super White 4623

 

I would also like to point out that two of the colors I just listed represent the RAREST Scions. There were only 12 Nautical Blue Metallic Scion xBs produced in 2009 as that color was discontinued after 2008. Also, 16 Murasaki RS7s were built in 2009 and the rest were built this year. Check the production date on the label in your driver's door jamb. You might own one of these extremely rare cars.

 

Wow I always saw Red xB's lately and had no idea it was RS 6. I didn't find out about RS' until recently.

 

The RS 8.0 was just announced for the 2011 model year. It is limited to 2000 units slathered in the FJ Cruiser's signature Voodoo Blue:

Looks like xB colors will remain unchanged for 2012. (yawn)

 

they need the green that they use to have on one of the RS xB1's....

 

that is weird, i had thought there were no NBMs available as of early 2008...Toyota went back and made 12 more for 2009??? new old stock? rebadged? just doesnt make sense.

 

I agree that it doesn't make sense, and I didn't get an explanation from Toyota when they gave me the production numbers... very strange.

 

Well, I don't know if this is considered a throwback or if the designers at Scion are just on vacation, but Hot Lava is returning as the Release Series 9.0 version of the xB.

 

xB RS9.0 = Hot Lava used on an RS for the 3rd time... 2004 xB RS1.0 and 2008 xD RS1.0.
xD RS4.0 = Blizzard Pearl used on an RS for the 2nd time... 2007 tC RS3.0.

Designers =

 

Added two more Scion commercials to the archive.

 

Each of the 3 Hot Lava colors are a slightly different shade just like the Voodoo Blue is slightly different then the paint used on the FJs

 

Those colors are all the same paint code and SHOULD be the same shade.

 

i know, i found out the hard way when i applied my touch up paint.
