"Skyline" Scion xA
Hey guys, I was searching on ebay for some ideas for my xA when I ran across this :

I was wondering if anybody had ever seen this before or knows more about the car. I'm really liking the front especially the 06 odyssey headlights. Since there aren't aftermarket headlights for the xA i think that's a great looking alternative.

Yea, the headlights are what stood out to me and anybody know what those holes are on both doors on the back of the car? Look like its to feed air directly to the brakes but seems pointless?

He could probably get 12-15k for it. Exterior is overboard right now but it could be cleaned up. Get rid of the dual fogs and put one that actually fits the kit, VRD or FAB maybe, cover the rediculous cutouts in the hood for the carbon, get rid of the rediculous horizontal winglets on the front bumper and the lip spoiler, remove the ugly side vents, get some nice wide offset 5 or 7 spoke rims, and route a dual pipe exhaust out of the back center of the vehicle.
At least the interior looks nice, though I didn't know Sparco made a bench back seat.
What kills me the most about it and why I don't like over the top styles in general is that it is made to look ultra fast but still has a stock motor under the hood save the CAI. Why would you need LSD and a stage 3 clutch with 108 HP? Would have been nice if he had taken some of that money, built the engine, and threw on a 15-20 psi custom EL manifold turbo for a 200+ HP xA.

the car is def not my taste but looking at it hard, and puking a few times in between, it was all done very cleanly. no junk paint. im a little curious about the claimed Celica internals. but we'll see i guess.
for execution i give it a high rating but their is too much custom stuff on it. but time wasn't waste to put it together like that.
i have seen worse. and they run around town here. example. Dodge avenger with eclipse front end and supra bumper taillights. orange with a lightning bolt down both sides.
