I would just like to know where you guys are getting this info. I have called 3 dealerships in the Michigan area and all of them have told me the same thing. NO WAY they said the only new color comming out is a red TC. I would like to know because I have an ___ load of parts waiting for my xb to come in next month but if what I am hearing is true (and it dosen't sound like it is) then I will wait
You should call this dealer back.

Why would they put indicator lights on the side mirrors, and leave the side markers!?
It looks stupid IMO to leave the side markers and have two things flashing on the side...

I like it but I'll keep my Box until the 3rd series comes out or maybe by then they will have a new xB and it will come in a RS.

They are limited. That term has been majorly abused. Ever check out a Grand Cherokee LIMITED or a PT Cruiser Limited Edition? They make as many as they can sell - now that's not a real limited... No other car maker does a Limited release except when the car is cost-prohibitive...

You can no longer go into a dealership and order a Hot Lava with all the options that were availible for the RS1. Yet you can still order the box in all the colors that they originally came with. This makes it a limited edition to me.

Looks photoshopped. It still looks funny cuz of the grill and the yellow paint. I agree with WagenMaster y would u leave the side markers there and still have the side mirror indicators.
