I like this, except with white time attacks.

Glad to hear that things worked out for you in the end.

I went from the G to this:



I am VERY happy!

Don't think so. That car is in Alabama, he lives in Cali. Doubt they sent it over to AL that fast.

I'm already ahead of you J, I'm getting in touch with Bat for the front bumper overlay, see if he has anything for the roof and then the tail lights, I'm looking probably at doing the White with black theme, but I haven't found wheels on a white one that stand out really, a lot of xB just get the black wheels with polished lips and call it a day, I don't want to look so much like the run of the mill, but at the same time I want to blend in nicely and not attract that unwanted attention. I'll probably do the Tanabe Medallion exhaust also since they are always pretty toned down and clean.

Motor, you got a Fit? I looked at those first and pretty in depth, but just couldn't do it. The car seemed too little and not enough protection, or power for me.

If you see a non-sport with the wheels, a some dark tint, and all the emblems gone beside the Mt. Fuji, then ask me.

Congrats I guess. I have never really seen a Xb that I like. They either look lame or WAY overdone. I have yet to see a happy medium. Graham you can be the first. Make us proud.

Sorry to see you leave the G, Graham! Best of luck with the xB, they seem like real functional cars.

I was actually referring to the track. I have heard of people oil temps get hot when they run on the track a lot and the car kicks in a rev limited to protect itself. Mine has never done that. I try to cool the engine in between runs.

I sure do hope Nissan USA takes that car as a test case and make sure that doesn't ever happen to anyone else.

I bet it was an assembly line defect (not neccessarily a manufacturing defect). Some guy probably came to work hung over that day and tried to do his job still

Sorry to hear about your G. That sucks big time. One thing I can say about you is that you're certainly not a badge *****. That's an interesting move from a G to a Xbox.

I'm sure the Xb is going to be very reliable. There is not much to it and it's a Toyota. Happy modding!

It is a watered down Toyota with a Scion badge. They were specifically engineered towards a specific market. That market being people that wanted a Toyota but couldn't afford it and teenagers. Basically, Scions were MADE to be cheap.

You can't say that a Scion and a Lexus are the same quality level just because they are both made by Toyota. Materials and assembly lines are different. Most of the time they are made in completely different areas. Scions are more likely to be made in America where as Camrys are made in Japan.
