Today we are happy to offer to you an exceptional Scion xB 2 door. This xb was professionally converted from a 5 door traditional xB to the two door version of which only five have been known to have been transformed. Should you win the auction I will provide pictures of the xB through the build process that the original owner took while building this scion. This Scion started its life as a navy blue xB that was purchased by the original owner when it was brand new. He began his build in the summer of 2006 and the build was completed in the summer of 2007. The original owner was sponsored by Bidgestone Tires , Matrix Paints and Bazooka Audio and 20 other full sponsorships. The xB is finished in Matrix Paints Sour Apple Green and the cockpit is finished in leather and fiberglass painted the same sour apple green as the exterior. The interior also features a 22 inch flatscreen and xbox gaming system and pioneer head unit. Behind the Drivers seat rest sixteen 10" Bazooka Subs powered by 10 Bazooka amps. The back hatch at the rear opens to reveal a small seeting area that is lit by neon and is finished in Matrix paints sour apple green. On the front and rear bumper a 6 inch speaker has been added so those not riding inside can also listen to the radio. The xB does have an air ride that controls the rear and the front remains stock. The car also has an extremely loud air horn that is controlled by a button underneath the seat. We are a New Toyota and Scion dealer and purchased this from the previous owner in 2008 to use as a marketing vehicle for our Scion Lineup . The only defects that I have included pictures of are the two in the back rear bumper almost at the bottom ( which were due to straps that we used to secure it when it was transported) and a crack that is in the rear compartment that was due to someone not securing the extreamly heavy rear door befor moving it , which caused a small crack that developed into the one you see today. Please feel free to email me or call me with any questions you may have. This car is a show car and not a daily driver , some modifications would have to be made and that would be left up to the buyer . We are Fannin Lincoln - Mercury - Toyota - Scion Inc. a new car Dealer in Ashland KY that has been in business for over 50 Years . If you have any questions feel free to contact Michael Abrenica at 606-929-9000 or m.abrenica@ymail.com.

Toyota Pro/Celebrity race switching from Scion tC to FR-S [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Toyota has announced that the rear-wheel-drive Scion FR-S will replace the front-wheel-drive Scion tC as the racecar used by actors, singers and celebrities of all grades in its annual Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race. It's the first time a rear-drive vehicle has been used for the event in 27 years, with the tC having been in use since 2005, and the FWD Celica before that. This year's race takes place on April 20th amidst the festivities of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach weekend.
The racing FR-S, which debuted today at the Chicago Auto Show, won't be left stock either, but rather outfitted with a range of official Toyota Racing Development parts and equipment, such as a stainless steel exhaust, new coil overs and springs, upgraded brakes, a bigger air intake and 18-inch wheels, not to mention all of the safety equipment required to keep the celebrities and pro drivers safe. The company says the performance mods have lifted horsepower to 210 from the standard car's 200. Check out the build process for the cars in the video below to see just how much work's been done.
The Toyota Pro/Celebrity race is also about more than just letting celebrities and pros do battle on a road course. The spectacle helps raise money for "Racing for Kids," a non-profit charity that supports children's hospitals in the US.

2017 Scion FR-S getting slight power bump?

Tue, May 12 2015

A common refrain when discussing the Scion FR-S and its sibling the Subaru BRZ is that they are capable vehicles but are in need of more power. The latest rumors suggest that some more muscle might finally be on the way for the coupe's refresh. Don't expect something like the STI Performance Concept with a 300-horsepower, turbocharged flat-four, though – the gains in the real world are likely to be significantly more modest. According to Toyota insiders speaking with Motoring in Australia, the local Toyota GT86 (our FR-S) is due for a styling and powertrain refresh for the next model year. The 2.0-liter boxer four-cylinder engine isn't expected to get a drastic power increase, but it's not being completely neglected. A new intake manifold and friction reductions reportedly allow for five percent more grunt. If accurate, and if the changes also come here, that would take output of the US version to 210 hp and 159 pound-feet of torque. The adjustments could improve fuel economy by seven percent, as well. Handling is already a forte for the FR-S and BRZ, and things could get even better with this refresh. Motoring claims that dampers from Sachs might become standard equipment, along with a reinforced subframe. The close relationship with the BRZ reportedly rules out any dramatic changes to the styling for this update. However, the coupe is still likely to wear a new hood with vents in it, reshaped headlights, and a revised fascia with a larger lower grille. At the rear, expect a rear diffuser and exhaust pipes at the corners. While minor compared to all of these rumored updates, Scion recently gave the FR-S a few tweaks in the US for the 2016 model year (pictured above). In addition to some new colors and interior trim, it now comes standard with a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system and rearview camera.

Scion's would-be savior C-HR spied before its Toyota rebadging

Wed, Feb 3 2016

Scion is dead, but one of its future products, the C-HR concept, is still in development for launch as a Toyota. Toyota does a thorough job of hiding the C-HR's rakish shape on these test cars, but we can spot the concept's design cues. For example, the pointed nose and narrow headlights are present, and the giant box on the roof can't hide the downward arch for the coupe-like rear. The back doors on these examples look larger than before, which suggests a switch to a traditional five-door body rather than the hidden rear openings on the concept. The change would offer easier access to the backseat and make the C-HR a better competitor in the segment against vehicles like the Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-3, and Jeep Renegade. The C-HR debuted as a boldly styled three-door crossover at the 2014 Paris Motor Show. Toyota later restyled the CUV with a more angular shape and extra doors. We most recently saw the compact crossover with Scion branding at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show. Rumors suggest the production model's debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and it could arrive at dealers in the latter half of 2016. The powertrain lineup likely consists of a four-cylinder engine with a CVT and possibly a hybrid version, too. You'll also get to see the C-HR on the track because Toyota will race the crossover in the 2016 Nurburgring 24 Hours. Related Video:
