2004 Scion XB Custom Hot Rod
This is not your typical Scion XB, this is a completely custom built V8 powered, RWD, 450 HP Hot Rod monster of a Scion. A no expense spared transformation happened to this particular Scion XB with completely custom frame and structure fabrication by Advanced Automotive Concepts. This is NOT a Front Wheel Drive car, it has been customized and rebuilt with a tubbed rear end and rear wheel drive. This car is a real attention grabber wherever you go with it..and they will hear you coming. The V8 sounds like rolling thunder and has all the power to back it up. Engine and Transmission: This Scion has a completely rebuilt, blueprinted and stroked 383 V8 putting out 450HP. There is an 8.8" rear end with a 3.73 gear ratio. There was a 700R Transmission installed to handle all of the power. The engine bay is filled with chrome pieces and is as breathtaking as the rest of the car. The car has a custom fuel cell located under neath of the rear trunk area with a access panel hidden in the rear trunk. There is a massive fuel pump installed in the fuel cell. Interior With the exception of the gauges hidden in the center console cubby, this interior is pretty much directly as it came from the factory. Black cloth seats, steering wheel, factory radio, etc are all in place and functioning. Turn signals and lights all work. If you were just looking at the interior, you'd have no idea what this car had under the hood. Exterior: The car was completely gone over and repainted in Burnt Tangerine. It was painted by a reputable shop, Ed and Jim's here in Baltimore. The car looking absolutely brilliant in person. The pictures do not do this paint justice. It pops. The body is free of any dings and dents. It was completely gone over prior to paint. There is a tasteful body kit installed on the car that gives it a slightly more aggressive look. Headlights, turn signals and rear lights work. Underneath this car: This is where the custom fabrication took place. Advanced Automotive Concepts here in Baltimore went through and did a completely custom fabrication and engineering to convert this car from FWD to RWD. Look at the pictures to see everything. Custom engine cradle, custom strut towers, custom exhaust, custom steering rack, engine mounts, etc. Everything was custom fabricated to create a RWD Scion XB with a V8. This was built correctly and it shows in the photos and the drive. This car starts right up with a turn of the key. It runs and drives with no issue. It was professionally built with driving it on the road in mind. I have uploaded a lot of photos of this car. There is a link to all of them here: ADDITIONAL PICTURES |

Toyota GT86 convertible could debut in March
Tue, 27 Nov 2012The dates are lining up, now we wait to see how the badges align. Just before the Toyota GT 86/Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ line-up was introduced at the Tokyo Motor Show last year, there was a report that Subaru was considering a convertible while Toyota wouldn't even comment on it. That got swapped around when earlier this year the chief engineer on Toyota's side said a convertible was coming, and then a Scion FR-S droptop was confirmed for early 2014.
Autocar now reports that the Toyota GT 86 convertible will make its first appearance at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show in March. In a car whose specs like weight, packaging, horsepower and center of gravity were all tightly controlled to get the most from the least, the changes necessitated by chopping the roof could make this a very different car. It's said to employ a fabric roof to keep a "small" weight gain check, and the suspension will be softened to work more harmoniously with the decreased body stiffness. And somewhere in all that the back seat and trunk space will need to take a hit.
In other news, Autocar says the hi-po GT 86 with some kind of capacitor system instead of batteries is being worked on for 2015.
Leaked Toyota FT-86 Open concept images preview droptop Scion FR-S [w/video]
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Here it is, folks - the highly anticipated Toyota FT-86 Open concept, a precursor to what could become a road-going Scion FR-S convertible. A full smattering of images and video have leaked onto the internet, and thanks to the folks at FT86Club.com, we can now see the new hotness that Toyota will be unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
These images confirm details that were first seen in spy shots captured a couple of weeks ago - namely, the larger wheel/tire package and the inclusion of the Toyobaru coupe's decidedly useless rear seats. These new photos, however, show a two-tone leather interior with goodies such as an iPod/iPhone mount on the dashboard. The concept car is also fitted with the coupe's six-speed automatic transmission (boo!) and FT86Club.com reports that the folding soft top is operated electronically.
We'll have the full details live from Geneva in just a few days. For now, click through our attached image gallery to see lots of pretty pictures of the topless wonder, and scroll down for a video to see the concept in motion.
The last new Scion is this tC Release Series 10.0
Wed, Mar 16 2016"We're not dead yet!" That's the message Scion will send next week at the New York Auto Show when it takes the stage with its very last brand-new car, the tC Release Series 10.0. For its final act, the tC gets an aero kit by JDM designer Ken Miura, consisting of a front lip spoiler, new rocker panels, a lower rear spoiler, and a little wing on the deck. Blacked-out Scion badges and gloss black alloy wheels contrast against this tC's unique Barcelona Red paint. It's not all for show, either. The Release Series 10.0 includes TRD lowering springs and TRD-tuned dual exhaust. Inside, black and red pours onto the new seat inserts, and there's similarly-toned contrast stitching on the shift boot, parking brake cover, and steering wheel. Only 1,200 examples will be built, available with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The manual car will go for $23,985, and with the six-speed auto, add $1,150. It's all very fitting – Scion was introduced to the US at the New York show in 2002, and over the past 14 years, the tC was the brand's most popular car (and one of its longest-running). To commemorate the occasion, Scion will also show some of its most popular showcars, including the original 2002 BBx concept, 2009 iQ concept, and 2011 FR-S concept – the "Friggin' Really Sweet" car, if you recall. Scroll down for the official "Scion-ara" (yep) announcement.

With a final Kei Miura-inspired tC Release Series 10.0, a display of some of its most impressive project cars, and cool swag, the Scion by Toyota booth is sure to be a flurry of activity at the New York International Auto Show, March 25 – April 3, 2016. It's only fitting that Scion closes its auto show history at New York since that's where it all began. Fourteen years ago Scion debuted its first concept vehicles and announced the new youth division for Toyota that would be a laboratory for experimentation and introduce new products and processes. That commitment to innovation carries through to the debut of Scion's final Release Series vehicle for the tC sports coupe, Scion's most popular car.
