Greetings from the xB1 side of the fence! Don't worry, I'm just visiting.

My oldabrutha just put $500 down on a rare blue xD without actually seeing one. If you're riding the Nautical Blue train, please to show off your ride! It would nice to walk to the correct vehicle when we go to pick it up.

I went with him on the test-drive, and I loved the car. After test-driving very subcompact, wagon, and hatch currently available in North America, the xD was an easy choice. Also, having driven both: those Fit people are insane - pay $3000 more for less modability and a bonafide 'ricer' badge? Derrrrr, lemme think.

Which wheel covers do you guys think look best on the NB?

WOW, I fail so hard.

I just realized I only searched in the main discussion page. :p Sorry, kids!

 

DUUUUUUDE!


You and your bro made a good color choice. Not only do I get intrigued looks about the car itself but I've had multiple people come and say they love the color. Glad you're in Chicago though. I love being the only (one of the only) ones around WA with that color.

 

y is this rare?

 

I've seen a blue one on my way home from work in the Bellevue/Kirkland area a few times in the last couple of weeks. Looks pretty nice. I may have gone with the blue over the red if I hadn't seen that one around.

 

Very few were produced in this color in comparison to silver/grey/red

 

Nautical Blue was my first color choice, but the dealer couldn't get one soon enough so I went with silver.

 

Here's the funny thing... I have an NBM xD and there's another one two blocks away from me in our neighborhood.

 

ya i think ny got them all lol theres been one sitting at a local dealer since March just cause theres a small paint deformity on the rear bumper

 

Well, I had to wait 4 weeks for mine... the only one on a lot this summer here in a 5 speed was White (the one I test drove).

Have I mentioned that I love this car?

 

Ha! Ironically, this is how I ended up with my Black Sand Pearl xB. I called around until I found a blue one, but somebody bought it while I was on my way to the dealer, so I bought the only other xB available. That's how I ended up with my black toaster (we call it the Flight Data Recorder - little black box, get it?). At this point, I wouldn't give up my FDR.

Oddly enough, I've seen the car I almost bought - it has a sticker from the same dealership and a license plate the same as mine except for the last two digits. o_____0

In any case, thanks for the pix - the brutha and I can't wait for the car to show up!

What do you guys call them, anyway? The xB is the toaster (except the new one is more of a microwave), the xA was an egg...what's the xD go by?

 

i've heard our ride being compared to a rhino. if you imagine the horn...yeah, it's a rhino.

 

I call mine sex on wheels, but thats just me lol

Some people call them lil deviants, others just D, ^^ rhino, other then that nothing too creative like the xB/xA

 

I've heard people refer to mine as a "bulldog" because of how aggressive it looks. I guess it looks aggressive.. lol

 

all the bulldogs i know of are cream puffs to each his own i guess lol ; )
