2008 Scion Xb Silver 80k Miles, Super Clean And Lots Of Extras! on 2040-cars
Arlington, Virginia, United States
|
Hello everyone! Moving overseas for graduate school, so I'm selling my awesome 2008 Scion xB. Purchased a year and a half ago as a certified used vehicle from a Toyota dealer, it has been dealer maintained ever since. Super clean and well taken care of, this is a real gem. Features the premium Scion stereo and sound system with ipod/iphone capabilities (also has aux port for non-apple products) and includes the adapter, steering wheel stereo controls, cruise control, 19" premium Mitsubishi wheels, spoiler, fog lights, tinted windows, color changing interior cabin lights, cold A/C, and more! Has tons of space and hidden compartments for sunglasses and you name what else. With the back seats folded down, I can fit two adult road/mountain bikes in the back without taking off their wheels. Five speed manual transmission that I average about 28mpg in. Needs new front tires, but is able to be driven as is. Some minor scratches and tiny dings around the car, and scuffs on the front bumper from winter, but nothing major. I assure you, this is a great looking car, as you can see from the photos. No mechanical problems whatsoever since purchase and runs great. Recently had the transmission fluid flushed and air filters replaced. KBB $10,500, willing to take less for a quick sale, as you can see from the "buy it now" price!
I am making payments on the vehicle, so I need to receive cashiers check as payment directly from the buyer or their bank. I believe I can also have your bank wire mine directly and have the title directly forwarded to you. I can also accept a personal check given we allow time for the check to clear. I am requesting a $500 deposit within 24 hours of the sale. If you are willing to cover some of the cost of travel, I am also willing to drive the vehicle out to a buyer within the first week of the sale, distance permitting. I am in DC/northern Virginia, and am thinking I could do about as far as Colorado. Message me in advance with your location/situation and we'll see what we can do! Thanks a bunch and good luck! |

FR-S with Targa-style top leads Scion's SEMA brigade
Thu, 30 Oct 2014The Scion brand seems to be a bit rudderless in the auto industry at the moment. The company just doesn't seem to know what audience it wants to appeal to. For this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the automakers is kind of just going wild with bizarre customs like a turbocharged FR-S with a targa top (pictured above).
Taking the roof off of a FR-S isn't an entirely new idea, but this targa-top version at SEMA is certainly a new take. In addition to just chopping a panel out of the roof, the custom also adds a louvered rear window in an especially cool touch that lends an '80s coupe vibe. To take the wild look even further, the car wears a bespoke wide body kit with an integrated rear spoiler and center-mount exhaust, and all of the bodywork is done in metal. Being for the premiere aftermarket show, performance also has to play a role, and the upgrades include a Greddy turbo kit, coil-over suspension from KW and big brakes from Wilwood.
If the FR-S seemed just slightly inspired by the '80s, the xB for the show goes for a look that's a decade older with inspiration from '70s conversion vans and skateboarding. With design help from skateboarder Riley Hawk, the custom is painted in shades of groovy earth tones with bubble windows in the rear, and the cargo box on the roof stores skateboards. The interior features touchstones of the time with a mix of wood-grain trim, shag carpet and comfy brown leather.
2014 Scion FR-S and tC Monogram Series are some spruced coupes
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Scion is in the unusual position of offering a pair of inexpensive sports two-doors, the rear-drive FR-S coupe and the front-drive tC hatchback. Despite offering outwardly similar size and form factors, the two have vastly different characters, chiefly because of their different drivetrain philosophies.
One area of commonality, however, is that both interiors have historically been underwhelming in terms of material choice and options. Oh, the FR-S has the basics nailed: a great driving position, grippy seats and properly businesslike wheel and shifter knob, but if you've been looking for premium-minded materials and high-end features from either model, they've been hard to come by.
The just-launched Monogram Series editions seek to rectify this somewhat, with each model getting additional features at a special price. In the case of the 2,000-unit FR-S limited edition, that means heated leather and Alcantara seats, heated side mirrors, high-intensity discharge headlamps, dual-zone climate control and BeSpoke audio and navigation, among other features.
Toyota GT86 engineers explored shooting brake and sedan variants, are they still in the cards?
Wed, 13 Mar 2013According to the Toyota UK blog, engineers for the automaker were so excited developing the GT86 coupe that they investigated producing a whole family of models based on the rear-wheel drive sports car. And at least one engineer - product chief Tetsuya Tada - still hopes it can happen, even if not everyone at Toyota is onboard. Tada: "Actually we tried to do this secretly but the executives found us out. They said: 'What are you doing? Will you please focus on the coupe.'"
Those mooted variants included both a four-door sedan and a shooting brake. Why? Aside from the pure excellence of a lightweight, brilliantly handling hatchback, Toyota was keenly aware of the fact that it may need to spread the cost of development out across several models. Tada says that's part of the reason why it was so easy to create the convertible. The company knew from the outset that a softtop version was in the cards, and built the machine's structure to accommodate having the roof sliced off.
Tada also made mention of the already-announced collaboration between Toyota and BMW. The engineer said that the GT86 was particularly helpful because it demonstrated just how successful a product conceived and designed by two different companies can be. While he didn't say exactly what Toyota and BMW are up to, it's clear the two are looking into a number of possibilities. It's an interesting read with a lot of
