2008 Scion Xb Automatic 18" Wheels on 2040-cars
|
2008 Scion XB We purchased this Scion for my wife from a local Chevy Dealer in mid 2008 with only 8,000 miles on it. The person that traded it in upgraded it with the 18" wheels currently on it and added the suspension. The stance is slightly lower than stock but the ride is great. The reason for the trade in was he needed a larger vehicle for work so he traded the Scion in on a new Tahoe. This has been her pride and joy. The original intent was to hand the Scion down to our daughter when she became of driving age in a couple years. Unfortunately the need for a larger passanger vehicle (Mini Van) got in the way of that plan. She hates to get rid of it but it doesn't make any since to let it sit for a couple years until our daughter starts driving. The XB has been a great car always located in Southern California. Excellent gas mileage. It seems to have a lot of power for a car in its class. The motor is the same one used in the 4 cylinder Toyota Camery. It has been serviced on a regular basis and routine oil changes. Currently the XB has new tires, New Battery and New Brakes. Exterior: The Dark Blue paint is in great condition. It has the normal wear. A couple small dings but nothing major. These can easily be removed with paintless dent removal. Interior: Amazingly spacious. Seats 5 comfortably and has lots of room for lugage. The interior is like new. Non smoker. Black Cloth seats. All lights and guages work properly. Carpet is in great shape. Original floor matts are still in it and in great shape. Even has the rear carpeted floor matt. Underside: The underside is in great shape. No leaks. Engine: Runs strong with no noises. No leaks. all Accessories work properly. A/C Blows Cold Trans: The Automatic shifts smoothly as it should. She is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Clean and clear title in hand. I will be more than happy to show the car or take some more pictures of specific areas if needed.

Scion FR-S may be getting supercharger kit from TRD
Mon, 05 Nov 2012The Scion FR-S was just named the Hottest Sport Compact at the 2012 SEMA Show, and Toyota Racing Development (TRD) is apparently looking to make this car a little hotter. According to Car and Driver, TRD is close to coming up with a supercharger to fit to the car's 2.0-liter flat-four engine in order to squeeze out a little more performance. Currently, the FR-S produces 200 horsepower, but there's no guessing how much a supercharger could improve this figure.
With Subaru seemingly hard at work on a new turbo engine for the BRZ and even possibly a BRZ STI model, it is only logical for a force-fed FR-S to be in the works as well. Surprisingly, though, the report says that supercharger would be unique to the FR-S, but since the Scion and Subaru BRZ are mechanically identical, it isn't clear how this would be accomplished. TRD already offers plenty of upgrades for the FR-S such as exhaust, brake and suspension kits, and it offers a handful of superchargers for other models including the 5.7-liter V8 used in the Toyota Tundra and the 4.0-liter V6 used in the Tacoma.
Nissan exec Andy Palmer derides Toyobaru coupes as 'midlife crisis' cars
Mon, 28 Oct 2013Andy Palmer, Nissan's executive vice president, does not like the Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ. To us, that's like saying you enjoy barbecuing puppies, but we'll let him slide, because his statements about the Toyobaru twins are much, much more than just idle trash talk.
Speaking to Motor Trend's Nate Martinez, Palmer said, "Do we have any competitors [in the small, rear-drive coupe segment]? Are you talking about the Subaru [BRZ]? It was a car designed for a 50-year-old. It's for a midlife crisis. That's not what we do." Strong words, but what followed was even better.
"Are you coming to the Tokyo Motor Show? You'll see the answer to the midlife crisis. Except it won't be for the midlife crisis." So, if you were wondering whether Nissan is working on a competitor to the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ, the answer seems to be a resounding "yes."
Scion FR-S Convertible (in Toyota GT86 form) spied in South Africa
Fri, 15 Feb 2013Though the eventual existence of a convertible version of the Toyota GT86 (and its Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ versions for America) is a no-brainer, we've yet to get a glimpse of the real-deal car until now.
Spotted in Cape Town, South Africa, of all places, this completely undisguised GT86 convertible seems to be in a remarkably advanced state of development. The image seen here was obviously sniped from quite a distance and without the aid of a powerful lens, but we can still make out a production-ready looking piece of rear bodywork for the convertible top to hide away in, as well as a functioning trunk lid. It's hard to make out with any certainty, based on this evidence, but there does seem to be space retained behind the front seats for two, small rear chairs.
With the first car spotted, we'd expect to seem some more and better images of it flow through in the near future, and if not, Toyota has already confirmed a concept version for next month's Geneva Motor Show, dubbed FT-86 Open, so stay tuned. For now, click through to the FT86Club.com forum to have a slightly closer look at the images.
