I haven't seen another one yet here in the most densely populated parts of New Jersey. if the xD fades into obscurity, it'll sure be hard to sell it off a few years from now.

 

I haven't seen many around Dallas, which I am happy about. And given I plan to drive it for at least 7-8 years I am not too concerned about the resale.

 

Exactly... I love having a car hardly anyone has.

 

I have seen one or two in Houston and a few dozen 2nd gen xB's in about the same time period.

 

I've never seen one on the road here. And I have been looking. A few xBs though.

 

I'm totally surprised that some of you have seen so many! I've had mine for two months...& other than the ones at the dealership, I haven't seen another here in the Phoenix valley.

 

I think that is a good thing. I like the fact that I will be driving a car that not everyone else is driving.

 

i still havent even seen one in person.. guess they aren't very popular around here.. i see tons of xB's and tC's, and a few xA's..

hell theres about 7 xB's in my neighborhood.. but no xD's

 

i think people don't really know about them yet. since scion doesn't make commercials for individual cars.

i promise- i wasn't complaining when i said that i haven't seen another. i definitely don't want the xD to turn into the honda civic of scion!

 

i just started seeing xb1s around here. but then again, the poverty rating here is 30%, lol... the sad part, when the Titans first came out, they were instantly all over the place. new, cheap, economy cars with great gas mileage show up, yet the fools around here are still pimping out their rusted cadillacs with a cheap extra coat of paint, suspension lifts, and logos running across their cars that say "24 INCHES."

...no im not kidding. people spend thousands of dollars to lift their cadillacs to fit huge, ugly rims... forget the fact that the exhaust is pouring out black smoke, right?

:: steps off soap box :: anyway, there WOULD be another xD around here... if i could afford the insurance O_o (F.U., college)

 

that's funny, but so true! it's always the junker cars that most guys our age are always trying to beef up. i don't get it. they just end up looking stupid. downtown phoenix is the same way. CADILLACS ARE NOT COOL!!!!!!!!! oh, well. it's their time & money. LOL

anyways, have you checked out what your insurance would be with the xD? i had a 91 camaro and took it off and put the xD on. it actually went down a couple dollars. i know i could get it even lower, if i took the time to shop around.

i heard that the trade in is pretty decent for people going from an xA to the xD.....but that's just rumor..so it might/ might not be worth checking out.

 

oh no, im keeping my xa ;-). it's a shared car (not married yet, but might as well be). right now im paying 40 dollars on my 300zx, and we have help with the xas insurance (for some reason, it's at 330 dollars!!! my mom pays 89 for her full coverage on her xa. i think it's the company/our age..)

My agent quoted "somewhere around the xAs," which is somewhere around 230 for me. but I informed about the added airbags, remote door locks, stability control, etc, and they said to check back later (apparently, these are big monthly savers @ Farmers).

 

That's fairly high for an xA.

I pay 230/mo with one ticket on my record that comes off in 3 weeks.

 

Texas has pretty high insurance for the under 25 crowd. I moved down here when I was 22 it was painful for 3 years compared to what I paid in Minnesota.

 

The insurance we're paying for the xD is a tad more than $50/mo for full coverage. NW Ohio, one accident, one ticket. (We're turning 25 in Dec.)

 

Jesus!!! my mom hasnt had a single wreck or ticket, and even with our family discounts and 10+ year discounts she's still paying 80-something...

 

230 is what i pay, but its not per month.. i have it set up to pay once every 3 months.. im sure his is similar he just forget to put that.. 230 seems a little high, even ifr you had a fast car.. unless you have an ungodly horrible driving record

 

When I was under 25 in Texas I was charged like $190 a month and that was with no accidents or tickets. After I turned 25 it dropped a lot. They just charge crazy amounts here in Dallas. Granted that was 300/100/100 with a reasonable deductible on collision.

 

Does your 300zx have a turbo?

 

I don't know about offroad's Z, but I owned a '90 Z TT. I bought it new, sold it while it was still in concours condition and 18K miles in 2002. A short time later, the new owner took it over a cliff, totally demolishing the car and almost killing himself.......:-(
