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.

Toyota GT86 gets TRD treatment in UK
Fri, 08 Feb 2013As dearly as we love the Toyota GT86 / Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ franchise, we readily admit we wouldn't look sideways at a model with a bit more firepower. And while that's not quite on the table yet, Toyota has been busy amping up the visual firepower of its rear-drive coupe with a whole host of TRD parts. To this point, that's been a largely à la carte affair, but the automaker's UK outpost has just announced a special-edition model that allows our British friends to pick up the whole shooting match all in one go.
The Toyota GT86 TRD will only be available in black and white, and just 250 examples are to be built. As you can see from the excellent gallery above, the catalog of look-faster bits include a more aggressive front air dam, side skirts, rear bumper fascia, spoiler and unique 18-inch forged alloys. Additional flourishes include a TRD shift lever and branded radiator cap. The sole concession to actual performance? A "fast-response quad exhaust" that might only improve things audibly - 0-62 mph is apparently unchanged at 7.7 seconds, and the top end is still 140 mph for the manual transmission model. (The auto gets by with 8.4 seconds and 130 mph).
Pricing? Glad you asked. £31,495 for GT 86 TRD manual, £32,995 for the automatic - that's nearly $50,000 US for the tripedalist and just over for the automatic. (Those are heady prices, but bear in mind that UK MSRPs and taxes are generally significantly higher than their US counterparts). If the standard GT86 is more your speed, it still rings up at a more affordable £24,995 - roughly $39,500 - leaving plenty of budget for actual performance parts. No word yet on North American availability of a special TRD model, but we've got a call in...
2014 Scion tC with updated styling priced from $19,210*
Wed, 08 May 2013Scion has released pricing information for a number of models, the most important of which being the updated 2014 tC that debuted at the New York Auto Show in March. The cost of entry for the tweaked coupe is now $19,210 with the standard manual transmission, or $20,210 if you'd rather the car did the shift-work for you (*both prices exclude the $755 destination charge). These numbers represent an increase of $485 versus the 2013 model with either transmission.
We have yet to drive the refreshed tC, but Scion says it ought to provide a much more engaging experience from behind the wheel. Automatic-equipped models now enjoy faster shift times with dynamic rev matching, and regardless of transmission, the tC is said to have improved handling dynamics thanks to reworked shock absorbers, stabilizer bar hardware modifications and retuned electric power steering.
In addition to the obvious re-schnozzing of the tC, other updates for the 2014 model year include a new standard auto display, featuring a 6.1-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth, HD radio and steering wheel-mounted controls.
World Car Of The Year down to its final four
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
