Alex ? What do you think
AHA!! Hello! Sorry, lost this thread.

Anyway, I do not believe that the 3.0 will have the color-tuned fabric. It will have the 2006.5 fabric that all the '06.5 xBs have, but that's it.

It's too bad, I've always thought the color matched fabric was one of the best parts on the RS cars and I would've liked to have seen it in green. Oh well.

Look for pics of mine around the 20th of February. That's my most realistic estimate.

I tell you what I have found so many pictures of the RS 3.0 all over the internet everywhere. I think that picture came from the 3.0 they had at the detroit auto show. I went to our auto show in st. louis with the hopes of getting more and the rep said they would not let them take that car to any of the other auto shows......dumb but true.......I will send you all the pix I have...no prob....

I think it's a good color, but I would like to see Toyota choose a more subtle color with style. They are pandering to the rice-racer crowd. I keep crossing my fingers that they will bring out an Anthracite Release!

On the RS 2 Solar Yellow don't forget the mirrors and the interior. I just wish the RS 3 had Sirius instead of XM

I have been looking in to that problem. I already have Sirius in my RS 2.0 and I don't
want to have a second account. I can add a car at Sirius for around $6. I found this
receiver at Crutchfield. Here is what it said:

"Having options is a great thing. And if you have a 2004 or newer Alpine
satellite radio-compatible stereo in your dash, you have the option of using it to
listen to SIRIUS.

SIRIUS created the SIR-ALP1 radio to work with the Ai-Net connection in Alpine
stereos. The stereo will display channel information, including channel name, artist
name, and song or program title. The radio also features a built-in pass-through, so
you can still connect an Alpine CD changer, if you like. The SIR-ALP1 radio includes
an antenna."


here is the direct link:

Anybody think this will work?

So does the RS3, or all 2006.5s have 15x6" steel wheels instead of the 5.5? I wouldn't mind getting a set of 6" takeoffs for my xA.

So everyone knows, all the RS 3.0's are going to take extra long to clear the port. Alot of the special equipment is being added there. Figure about an extra week or so.
