The Scion Cult (Sort Of)..
#21
It seems like a lot of Scion peeps get spooked. I've had quite a few take off on me when they see me trying to catch up to them, when all i wanna do is say whats up. and those who come up from behind me, look away once I look at them and they take off.
This morning a Camo xB w/bronze rims and a bbist.com sticker was passing me on the 60 fwy. I know he was looking as he passed by me. but when he got right next to me, i looked over at him, and he immediately looked away and drove off without even a nod. oh well.
Not like there's a written rule about acknowledging each other on the road.. but if u have the time to stare, might as well wave/smile/nod...whatever.

Maybe people think we're trying to challenge them or something. I was next to some guy in an IS300 that had some mods going on. He made a few moves trying to catch up thru traffic and when he did catch up (and it was obvious he was trying to catch me) he wouldn't look over and just kept mean mugging, lookin str8 ahead...
I try to give props to anyone that takes pride in their ride. I guess to some fast and the furious is a reality... or so they think.
I guess its a good sign that they are nervous.

12 xB's, 4 white, 3 T-Cloud, 1 Lava, 1 Camo, 1 Blue, 2 Cherry, on a Friday night, flying up and down Blanding like a swarm of bee's... sounds sweet and look's every sweeter... stopped ot a stop light. go figure...light turns green.
12 Boxes dart off the line like a 5th grade wimpy kid running from a bully, swerving everywhere, running people off the road all while the music's setting off alarms...that's what East Coast Scion does for our meets...no pics tho...but boy is it fun

I followed spider13 from this forum down I485 for about 20 miles on our way back from a meet we had on the July 3. We both have nearly identical BSP xB's. I noticed alot of people we passed turning their heads to see the 2 mystery cars passing them. It was cool.
I was coming back from the fireworks tonight in uptown Charlotte and had about 12,000 people give my car looks and some people were shouting at me too. It took about 1 hour to go 2 blocks and 40,000+ people all walking down the streets back their cars. So I got ALOT of looks.

For sure Blue, I had the first Scion in my neck of the woods and I made sure I beeped at everyone I saw, now i have a train horn so they better beep back!
but seriously I made sure everyone's friendly, heck I've gotten free breakfast at some old ladys house that had a xB. I love Scions and the people. Couldn't be happier

We had a nice following with 11 Scions rolling into the VIP event yesterday. Pics can be seen under Photo Booth, under my thread IKONLORD has posted them. They are still new here in the North East, and at every light we rolled through, there was at least 2 people with this look on their faces ...

Damn, any pics of the white bB's side or rims? Shiz looks crazy from the back.
Wish I could be in a line of xB's on the road. Maybe on Sunday at the Scion Florida Show.
But I did park by a hot lava at the mall when i went to work. I know the owner works at the mall, but iono where. Pics below...

If it's a cult count me in! in my area I'm the only Box within 60 or so miles you must travel 100 plus miles just to get to the nearest Scion dealer. I love being the only one around but realize it won't last long.
Its funny watching people pointing and staring as you go by, it's like being in a fish bowl. not to mention having a crowd around your Box when you get out of church. :D :D

I picked up my box last Friday July 29, and have yet to see another Blue Onyx Cult "member" in my area. Cool for now but would like (maybe) 1 or 2 siblings in the same color rolling down the streets of Denver!
TCMs are #1 color here, then RS2.0.

I wish I could roll with some xBs. In one year, I have rolled up on exactly two and they were both going quite slow.

I got a "peace" from a tC driver today as I was driving back to work from lunch with a buddy in the car. He had just finished asking me if fellow Scion owners would wave at each other and I told him "yeah" but he couldn't believe it when it actually happened. LOL pretty cool I thought.
I gave the "peace" back, BTW. No reason to be a dick.
