yea.. lame, there's already been a blue RS not to mention the stock IIP. The xB gets all the good colors and the xA gets thrown to the curb as usual. It's a good thing us xA owners dont have the number for the dumbarse that keeps making these decisions, he'd get an earful.

Well, they've also dumbed down what makes an RS an RS since the 1st one for the xA. I mean, the blue is nice, but other than the (somewhat) unique color, there's nothing pushing you to get the RS over the others. I love my RS1, not just because of the color, but all of the other things that came with. It really drove me to *want* to buy one. They had the formula right with the 1st of the series (and the green xB too).

Toyota sure is not playing it fair for us xA lovers. As much as I like the xA, I find this colour really plain. It's not bad since it's far better than the standard 6 colours that are available now. If only they pick a better colour.

the swatch looks to me a lot like the cadet blue metallic of SCIONLIFE's *previa*. Yeah, tho, nice color... for a regular option. We gotta get some better RS colors. The RS is a Special edition right? Why not make it special. Look at all the xB, tC's Solar Yellow, Hot Lava, Envy Green, the RS2 tC, and what do we (xA's) get.... Really Red, Really Blue, and Smokey Blue...WHAT THE F*** guys!?! I LOVE my car but I'm tired of feeling like the bastard of the Toyota family.

WEAK! Another shade of blue? I would seriously consider buying an xA if they put a nice color on one.

Other than the xB, every "special edition" Scion color has been a stock color you can find on every other car. (red or blue)

They must REALLY think that only a person "unique" enough to drive an xB, is crazy enough to rock green or orange or yellow or color shifting paint. They must look at all other Scion drivers as boring, non enthusiasts.

I like the color.

I hope they bring the Ractis over with that color, too!
