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.

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.
Toyota GT86 engineer Tada recounts how sports car came to be
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Because the Toyota GT86, Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ coupes are now a reality, it's almost hard to imagine the struggle that had to happen within the large, conservative corporate structures at both automakers for the joint project to even get off of the ground.
Speaking to those struggles on Toyota UK's Toyota Blog, GT86 Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada enlightens us with a recap of the sports car's earliest origins. For Tada, the first stages of the project must have seemed almost as dreamlike as the final product is to drive.
Said the Chief, "I had been working in the minivan department engineering new product, but a month after the meeting I was summoned. 'Forget about minivans,' they said, 'you are now working on the sports-car project.'"
Toyota gives dealers permission to drop Scion, shows them FR-S droptop, Juke rival first
Mon, 19 Aug 2013We recently heard that Toyota could be looking to shrink its network of Scion dealerships, and now Automotive News is reporting that the automaker has officially given its dealers the green light to dump Scion without any penalties. Currently, Scion has about 1,000 dealers, yet our report from August 8 quotes an industry analyst as suggesting a healthier figure would be between 350 and 500 outlets. But before its current dealers make a decision on whether or not to get rid of the youth-oriented brand, Toyota also showed off a couple potential future products in the pipeline.
The FT-86 Open Concept shown above was revealed back in March at the Geneva Motor Show, and AN says that an FR-S convertible was driven on stage at a recent national Toyota dealer meeting in Atlanta. There has still been no definitive word one way or another as to whether the droptop model will be built, but it could be a good way to follow up to the popular FR-S coupe. Another possible future product is a subcompact crossover, which was shown in drawing form at the meeting, presumably aimed at small CUVs like the Nissan Juke and the upcoming Honda CUV based on the Fit, a model recently previewed by the automaker's Urban SUV concept.
