Default Goodbye scion life :(

Well I've had my nautical blue, xxb, and for 90k miles... I've done Hotchkiss suspension, exhaust, brakes, swaybars front and rear, 19 "type m wheels
flat black, hid, intake, halo front lights, black led rear lights, and a bunch of other things.... And it's time. To move on.... Sad to leave.. My car feels alive.. Lmao its weird but I feel like I'm leaving behind a family member... I'cant lie... I'll be checking in to see what new things people do every once in a while... I'm finally, buying a STI!!!!! I almost bought a 2007 but got the xb instead glad I did I will always love my box... So just wanted to say bye the right way... Stay fresh, keep it gangsta, and remember if you see a pearl white 2011 sti in south Florida a there is a guy who misses his xb... Peace

I've been looking at 2008-2010 STi's... Audi A3's as well... xB is getting pretty boring due to the lack of aftermarket support...

Have fun with the STi, bro.

I woulda got a used sti or an evo, but the insurance rate is insane and I have a near perfect record. It's more than double my current full coverage rate.

Yeah I had just finished my system and wheels and then I woke up to the whole car missing. 5 days later they found it like this. The whole inside of the car was gone and missing the rear bumper and wheels and such. MAJOR SUCKAGE

I feel your pain man and not to sound like an a** but did you have a full alarm system? This was the first thing I did when I got my Xb (well cos I was also an AV/Security installer for over 15 yrs too lol) but damn that really sucks either way - someone must have been watching your ride.

LOL go get a Civic EG then you can go into Walmart and find stuff that will fit it lololol j/k - Hey I'm not hating on the Civic btw, my showcar is a 400+whp turbo EG and I got the Xb as my daily so I can still feel "special" lol.

If I were to build a track car (we have Miller Motorsports Park out here and time attack seems more fun than driving in a straight line), I'd scoop up a Subaru GC8 chassis.

I've actually got bit by the mod bug again... been gathering inspiration from VW and Honda scenes.

Yeah I had a alarm but I guess they knew how to get passed that to.....this was the one and only night I had left my car out. Xseveredveganx.....I now drive a VW Fahrenheit modding is fun, but cost more than the XB for sure.

Alarm, locks, kill switches, etc won't stop someone from taking your ride if they really want it unfortunately.

After takin a closer look at your picture I noticed you have a rs model. If I were you I'd hit up the pacific northwest section and ask everyone to keep an eye out for your seats, grill, door sill, etc on a non rs car. You may find the ****** that did that to your ride and if nothing else you'd out the lowlife scumbags to the community.

Hell yes track is so much more fun - I like those older EVO 8's for track - If I had a track close by, I probably would have sold the Honda by now and built up an AWD

Red bumper support. Don't know of any other car it could be.
