Anything is possible. As long as they are taking orders for them, most likely they'll get what ever they order. I doubt if they are gonna turn down orders on a newly released car do you :?: .

Can someone provide me with a link that says about Hot Lava...I know where the Metallic Orange is on scion.com, but am unsuccessful in finding Info for the Hot Lava. Or is Metallic Orange actually called 'Hot Lava'?

For all those purchasing the xB RS 1.0, how 'bout rockin' these?

(they're orange not red in case it's hard for you to tell )


Or would this be too much orange?

I think that would be overkill.

not really sure if it would be over kill, but the orange doesn't look like it would match too good. which would be a problem

I found'em here http://www.wheeloptions.com/wheels.html. They're made by SpeedMaster model # SM-046 and the finish is called Team Orange. Unfortunately, I just noticed, after looking at the site again, the only sizes they have in this finish are 15x6.5 with +40 and +38 offset.


and yeah...hehe not sure if they'd totally match the color since I haven't seen them in real life but...just thought it was cool...well would *be* cool if they did match.

Not to hate on anybody here but does anyone agree with me that if alot of people go out and order this "special version release series" of the HOT LAVA xB, then in a way it loses it's "special status?" Are most of you ordering this one b/c it is a great value (980 for all the goodies) OR b/c you want to be unique and labeled 1/2100?? Personally I think it takes the fun out of starting out with a butt stock one and going from there. Either way I'm just curious.

hey doc...you should rock those oarnge wheels and get a sponsorship from Tropicana! I've got more people interested in the 1.0 then I've got cars allocated...would you want to donate your's to me?

BTW, which 5 zigens are you looking at? I've been planning on getting the FN01's in bronze, but now I see them everywhere. It may be back to the drawing board for me!

I almost decided that I didn't want a Scion because there was no color that really made me happy. The one day the orange one appeared and within minutes I was calling my dealer because the xB that was meant for me arrived.
There are not many options that are extra, but the upgrades I want to do, would have to be done on any xB, but I understand your stock/build-up idea.

I don't see how the Lava Box will lose its special status once all 2100 are sold... over 6000 xB's were sold in Cali alone, from June to November. In february, 23 more states will start selling Scions, it they each sell half of what Cali dealers sold, then they will sell 500 xB's per month, each, that works out this...
23 states multiplied by 500/mo multiplied by 5 months (til June)

23*500*5= 57,500

That means that it is possible for Scion to sell 57,500 xB's in 5 months, if these states sell half of what Cali did. Then in June 26 more states will start selling xB's.

Then if you factor in the xA's and the tC's in June, you are easily looking at 100,000 Scions by the end of the year... 2100 orange ones would definitly be special...

Thats what I think... but either way, I think the Hot Lava xB is one of the hottest cars I have ever seen!!!

Not only will I not donate my Lava Box to you, but you had better figure out a way to start selling reg xB's again...

I am looking at the 18" White 5ZR Copse rims, white rims on the orange box... my plates will say "CRMCYKL".......

Just kidding, I want those rims but in silver...


I wonder if they would sponsor?

Even if everyone in Cali got a hot lava I think it will still be rare to see. The options on it still make it pretty much stock. I plan on putting a whole lot more on mines so theres no fun takin out of it. Not only that but your 1 in 2100

Ok, is it true that this limited edition orange xB will NOT come with rims? It's gonna come with hub caps?!?!?! Hell no, I don't even want to hear about this thing ever again. sorry, it's cool and all, but I was hoping it would come with wheels standard. I'm hoping to keep to Scion stock, so that's why. I know everyone else wants to add on stuff.
