If he showed interest first and they are already working with him to hold then they should be obligated to keep working with him until all avenues are exhausted. Either way they will get their money for the car. Granted, all it should take is $500 to hold it for him. That's what I did with mine.

Default WHO WANTS ONE OF MY "Limited Edition Lavas"

Okay - Here is a deal for someone !

As I stated before, my wife had placed a credit card hold/order for one of the xB's, this unit might come in Automatic or Manual, not sure .....

The dealer that I have been working with called and said that the young guy got approved, I can come over and place a deposit and I will get the next one there as well !

My question is this: I want the automatic not the stick, we do not know which are coming in ...

Is anyone interested in this ?? I do not want to stick the other salesman, he is a good person ...

So if you want a stick, send me an email and we will figure out how to do this in the event a stick and auto come in ....

I hope this makes sense - Basically you will be going to the dealer I have worked with and give them your own deposit for the Lava ....

I already have a deposit at a different dealer !

Default Pioneer 6 disc is NOT included

the pop up available on Scion.com lists the options included in this package, and a 6 disc is not one of them.


Still a good deal though.
Got paid today and waiting on my refund check to put a deposit down if I can get approved for credit. I'd rather have a 5spd hot lava for 200 more than a regular automatic. Only want fogs on it and cargo cover, both can be dealer installed so I am set!

It will match my cadence 6000 mobile theater amp too!

Yea it is not on the website yet, doesnt mean it is not true!
The pics on the website show a lava AEM intake, and there has been no mention of that, so I think Scion.com is just a little behind the power curve.

According to Cat, there will be 300 on the next Allocation which will be cut on Monday night. Dealers should know something on Tuesday how many, if any they will be getting.

I was just curious if anyone knew exactly how many most dealer were expecting to receive as far as allocation of the Hot Lava's? Most of the dealers in my area already have 2 or 3 reserved for customers.
I am reserving mine tomorrow at a dealer (undisclosed to protect my stake at one) some distance away who has yet to have some lay deposit to one but is small than some of the super-Toyota dealer in the Houston area.

Thanks for any help and props to doc for the write-up

-Will

there's a really good chance that I will be automatic. Not too many sticks. In this allocation.

I was considering ordering the AEM air intake in the promotional pics but I want to know if the intake come orange in this case, like its pictured?


ALSO, most of you guys have been bashing AEM... but when I look at most of the compariosons it ranks right up there with performance.... why the diss is it just because It is over priced.... I dont mind buying another brand but if the AEM is orange I am most likely sold.

According to www.Scion.com, the Lava Link says that an optional orange(the best color ) Cold Air Intake is available.

Default Lava xB

If you live in California and cant find a dealer that hasn't used up his allotment for the Lava xB let me know. My dealer still has at least 2 left.
No one has even asked except me and mine is the only one on order as of today.
