Default So my Christmas present will be a new box

I am new to the forums, but I am buying a 2008 box once I return home from Iraq in about a week.

One of the benifets of buying one, my pops is a car salesman, so I will get the hook up with accessories.

Anyways I plan to buy the NBM in a manual with the rear spoiler. Already been planning for rims, sound system plus CAI and exhuast.



Just wanted to say I have seen some awesome mods far as car audio on the xB. Gave me a few ideas, and since I am an Engineer, I will probably design my own boxes with Autocad to fit next to the tire on both sides. Get some of those eD SQ10's and a mono RF punch amp to push them.

X2!!! Just remember that the xB2 is NOT a box or toaster. Those names are reserved for the xB only.

I got the nmb, in an auto, with the spoiler. I have lots of things ordered to put towards the xb, new headunit (Pioneer AVIC-D3X), Crunch 1000.1 mono amp, 1 eD 11kv2 w/thier custom downfiring box, TRD CAI/Exhaust.

Waiting for the spring before I put some 18"s under her.

Silly xB2 owners with BOX envy.

man...don't people know the basic definition of envy? how can one be envious of something that is easily obtainable? xB2 owners would own the xB1 IF they wanted to - how is it envy to own something more expensive and newer?

Congrats on the new "breadbox". Congrats on getting it outfitted so quickly.

And lastly, thank you for having the courage and honor to serve our country. One of my best friends is on temporary duty at Andrews allowing a couple of full-timers to have a couple of weeks off and spend time with their families. I can't think of a better gift.

It's box envy because there are plenty of xBs for sale if they really wanted one. They buy an xB2 and think they can call them boxes and toasters. That is just wrong . They need to come up with their own nicknames and stop trying to use ours.

That is fine because it does look like a "shoe" box. The xB2 is about the proportions as a shoebox.
