Pricing and Upgrades For Scion xB RS4.0 Announced
October 13, 2006 – Torrance, CA - Scion, of Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc., announced today that the fourth and last limited production Scion for 2006, the xB Release Series 4.0 (xB R.S. 4.0), will hit dealer showrooms next month.
The 2006 xB Release Series 4.0 will come in Maziora Torched Penny exterior paint. Maziora, by Nippon Paint Co. Ltd., is a polarized paint line that changes color depending on the viewing angle or light reflection. Maziora was also recently featured on a Japanese domestic special edition bB and has been used on project and show cars.
The xB R.S. 4.0 features color-keyed taillights, rear spoiler and Modellista speed grille; rear bumper protector; and Release Series wheel covers. Interior features include Release Series badged floor mats and multi-color under-dash light and cup holder kit. A color-keyed Razo shift **** is standard on manual transmission models. An individually numbered brushed stainless steel badge completes the uniqueness of this vehicle.
Only 2,500 units of the xB Release Series 4.0 will be built. The xB Release Series 4.0 model will carry a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $1,930 over the base price of the xB for models with automatic transmission and $1,980 for models with a manual transmission. The base MSRP for the xB starts at $14,030.

I'm not following the knock on the color. Aside from the expense of price matching aftermarket parts, I think it will be a good color. Sure, studio lit pictures show us the brown shade, but we've started to see some of the the dynamics of this color. Looks to be more like a reddish copper to a tarnished yellow/green copper color, and everything in between.
IMHO this is a good clean package, and as far as upgrade parts, it doesn't look like you'll be replacing a whole lot of the RS "Special Options"

Scionlife, for some reason I cannot view a larger version of the pics on the leftlane news page. Could you please post the larger pics of the back of the RS4 on this thread. I really want to see a good view of the "color coded" tail lights. Thanks.
