lol... except that pizza places are always running specials! Seriously, though, I do like the no-haggle pricing. I bought a VW Golf from a dealership that advertised 'no haggle' pricing, but it turned out to be the same old crap as every other dealership. People have come to think that if they pay sticker price they are being ripped off. I don't know why the auto industry has gone this way, but I wish they were all more like buying a TV, hamburger, or a pair of pants -- everybody pays the same price. Of course, if you combine too much TV and too many hamburgers, you're going to need to buy larger pants. I don't know what the significance of that is... but there you go.

Why? That's exactly how it is supposed to be. That's what I got... and that's what almost everyone buying a Scion gets. There's no reason to be upset about that.

Probably because my brother purchased from the same dealer/same salesperson a few months earlier and got free mats and that clear stuff on the front of his. THAT's WHY!!!!!!

I love it...So far I have only added tint and the 18" Enkei rims and 225/40/18 tires...My xB RS2 I went all out on, but this I think I'm keeping it pretty much like this...

I don't know how it is every were else, but here in Utah it is hard to get anything added in for free. What's funny, if I would have bought an xD last year I would have gotten $600 of free stuff, now, no one will do a thing. I thought with the current car market they would try to move more cars by adding some free stuff. Toyota does not make a lot of money on the accessories, they should sacrifice a little to get a car sold.

Are you peeps still seeing dealers handing out free stuff?
Is it just Utah?

Think about this way for the xD. Scion hasnt produced any for two months and arent producing anymore this current month April either... With that being said what is in the market is all there is available for the current model year....... Scion will probably fire up the plant for the RS2 then 2010 models. I dont see the dealers dropping prices or throwing anything for free to sell the cars.

Tim the xD looks great

That looks very nice. Ours is completely stock, other than the Enkies, though ours are only 16", and full tint.

Do I see a non stock exhaust tip in the back?
