Funny...that doesn't look like "wheel covers" in the picture, and there's no mention of additional-cost-special-edition-wheels in the write-up.

They've done wheels in the past but they add too much to the cost to see so many people change them anyway. The tech stucc is a better move.

Can't wait to see it live.

there is an ad of that exact car in this past issue of modified magazine advertising the TRD supercharger. i told some friends that scion might have accidentally jumped the gun on the color release but i guess not.. no mention of a bodykit and i think the only way that it stays cheaper than the mentioned element and HHR is that it comes with wheel covers.. toyota has to stay competitive!

i don't see the price justified anywhere...

*you can get that nav on ebay for under $500. i bought my f90bt for $450 bucks brand new.
*the color isn't custom so toyota didnt spend extra money there
*the wheel covers are a joke
*the gril... meh nothing special
*the spoiler... its what we already have its just color coded to the exterior

the only thing i can see any price increase is for the color coordinated interior and that by no means justifies that price over a normal xb2. hell its not even in a nicer fabric then stock

Love the color, HU seems OK, but no body kit is unforgivable. For most people, taking a brand new car to the bodyshop is daunting at best. On the RS5 the bodykit by Kenstyle was not very well recieved but it still gave the RS5 a distinctive(racy & lower) look to differ from stock, accentuated by lowering. I am seeing that most of the $1800 extra is going to a nav unit I don't get to choose, with a few superfulous goodies that are nice but not exciting. I was looking forward to the RS6 as much as anyone, watching the threads in the xb2 forum religiously. As an owner of a RS1 and thinking of becoming a 2 xb family, I must say I'm disappointed. (And no pictures?)
