Awesome 2011 Scion Xb 5-speed Manual- Private Auction! on 2040-cars
Pennington, New Jersey, United States
AWESOME 2011 SCION xB 5-SPEED MANUAL- PRIVATE AUCTION! We purchased this car new in August of 2010 from James Toyota in Flemington, NJ and it is gorgeous. It has always been kept in a garage, always filled with name-brand gas, always dealer-serviced and nobody has ever smoked in it. It has never been in an accident of any kind. Its exterior color is “Super White” and I can’t find the name that Scion uses for the interior color but you can see from the pics that it is a really snazzy gray with patterned fabric. If there’s a 2011xB out there in better condition than this one, it’s probably because somebody bought one and hung it on their living-room wall! You can pick through the equipment list (see the picture of the window sticker) but here are some highlights:
Current mileage (as of 12/24/2013) is 36,325 miles. VIN # JTLZE4FE6B1122964 Why are we selling it? All right, this is my wife’s car. I am a manual transmission fanatic, she wants an automatic. I love sports cars, she wants a luxury car. I say this is both; she doesn’t agree. This is a gorgeous car- I’m gonna miss it; she… not so much. You get the picture. Here’s what works on this car: Everything!! Here’s what you should know is not perfect:
Repairs that have been done on this car:
I am a straight-shooter, and you can bid with confidence. I have bought and sold on EBay many times over the years (including a couple of cars) and I have never received any negative feedback whatsoever. I will require cash or a bank cashier’s check and ID at pickup. I will require a deposit of $1,500 by cash, bank cashier’s check, or Paypal within 48 hours after the auction closes. You must pay the balance by cash or cashier’s check and pick up the car within 7 days after the auction closes. (I will accept Paypal for the balance of payment if you add 2.9% to the balance, which is what Paypal charges a seller to accept payment- believe it or not!) The xB must be picked up in person in Pennington, NJ. You will have to bring plates to drive it home. When you come to pick up the car, I will be happy to go with you for a drive on a variety of nearby roads. If this drive shows up any mechanical problems, I will return your deposit and you will be under no obligation to buy the car. Other than this caveat, however: If you are the winning bidder on this car, you are legally obligated to follow through on the purchase! MY RESERVE PRICE IS $13,700 ON THIS CAR. I AM NOT WILLING TO TAKE ANY LESS. SURE, IF NOBODY WILL PAY THAT PRICE AFTER ANOTHER LISTING OR TWO, I WILL LOWER THE PRICE, BUT I BELIEVE THIS IS A FAIR PRICE FOR A MANUAL xB IN THIS CONDITION. If you have any questions, please email me. Good luck on your bidding. Carl |

Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
Scion gets weird with '70s-inspired xB and Slayer tC at SEMA
Tue, 04 Nov 2014Scion certainly isn't afraid of taking a step into the bizarre at this year's SEMA Show, with at least two concepts that are probably the last thing you would expect from the brand.
First, the company is taking a step back into the 1970s heyday of custom vans with the Scion x Riley Hawk Skate Tour xB seen above. It's painted in an eye-popping shade of orange with an oh-so-retro white, yellow and card red stripe running down both sides. The fenders are connected by a streak of brown, and there's a pop-up skateboard holder on the roof in a matching color scheme to the rest of the body. The Cragar-look wheels trimmed in raised white letter tires and the throwback mirrors really sell the period look. The interior is similarly decked out in disco-era touches like shag carpeting, woodgrain trim and brown leather. In a nod towards the modern, there's a Pioneer media center in the back.
If the xB is too sunshine-feel-good for your style, then the Scion x Slayer Mobile Amp tC goes for an angrier vibe, with inspiration from the heavy metal band Slayer. The exterior is inky black with airbrushed skulls running over each side and the band's crossed-swords emblem on the hood. The motif is carried to the wheels with their blade-shaped spokes. When the custom's suicide doors open, you find a massive Pioneer sound system with a tower of speakers inside that should be loud enough to deafen anyone tempted to turn it up to 11.
Toyota FT-86 Open Concept leaves us feeling flushed
Wed, 20 Nov 2013When last we checked in on our topless would-be hero, the Toyota FT-86 convertible had been reportedly placed on "indefinite hold." That was back in early October, not long after Toyota had trotted out the rear-wheel-drive canvasback to Scion dealers as a possible future product carrot if they decided not to turn in their franchises. And yet, we're here at the Tokyo Motor Show, where Toyota has taken the time to at least repaint the FT-86 Open Concept in "Flash Red," if not build a whole other car (the original Geneva showcar was white). It's enough to make our heads spin like a teenager on the verge of a breakup. Will they? Won't they?
At this point, we still don't know any more than you do - the last word we heard out of Toyota was not encouraging, although the story was that the program could still be fast-tracked if management had a change of heart. As the car has never been seen before in Japan, perhaps Toyota is merely extending its domestic audience a courtesy view before it lines this showcar in mothballs, or maybe they're still trying to make a decision on its fate and gauging public reaction on the homefront.
Interestingly, in a new story published today, Automotive News quotes Subaru brand boss Yasuyuki Yoshinaga downplaying the likelihood of a production model, saying flatly "We make the car, so if we don't make it, it can't happen." The executive went on to note, "Our engineering department told me that losing the entire roof requires a complete redesign of the structure. It would need a big change." Given that such a car would probably trade in rather small volumes, that sounds like a significant hurtle.
