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:

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.

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

My xB is Army Rock Metallic and I’m not sure if there is a less popular color.....have yet to see another. Plenty of other colors but none like mine in Tampa.
