...im still up in the air as to do I wanna trade in my RS 2.0 xB for the new one???
i think if you do, you'll want to race me all the time

I figgured I might as well post up the chop I did for that other site in here as well. Bagged, big Widetracks (staggered, but they don't look it), shaved, and billet grills. I could have gone further, but this was just a real quick down and dirty chop for myself.

I think I'll be sticking with a first gen. Time to start seriously scoping California dealers to find the 1st gen with the specs I want.

I would probably trade mine in for the xB2 if it were a two door and the new camaro wasn't about to come out.

Sooo ... at least the entire Scion brand will have some resemblence to one another ... kinda like how nissans, lexuses, and the like share similar qualities. The xD and xB have front ends that look like the tCs. But that is about where that ends. Now tell me why the xB gets projectors and or HIDs and the tC does not. That just doesn't make sense. Ummm ... I'm not so much on these versions. Gag. Ummm ... I am glad I got a Scion before they got all weird and such. Haha!

I like the new xb although, i don't think id trade in my 1st gen, would like to have both tho. As far as the xd its mediocre, i knew it wouldnt be a 2 door coupe, that would just be competition for themselves. Also, with the flared fenders and c & d pillars, the new xb kinda reminds me of an old school gangsters car. Am I the only one that sees this similarity? Probably...

I doubt it will smoke your tc, as they said in the article it is now more a compact car rather than a subcompact, which would mean more weight. I think.

That would be great. I would prefer not to get smoked unless it is turboed or something. Kill me in the face now ... what is up with the xD and that crazy D pillar. Crap. And as to compact and subcompact ... I thought that just dealt with sizes and such. hmmmm ... but it wouldn't weight that much more if it did, don't you think?

Jovan,

under the hood, where a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine (shared with the tC) making 158 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque replaces the wimpy 103-hp 1.5-liter four-pot of xB version 1.0. Five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmissions deliver the newfound power to the front wheels, the latter with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

Maybe not the difference in size, but the xb is classified as a wagon compared to a 2 door coupe, so im sure its substantially heavier.
