I love the new one too, especially after seeing the black one in the validation testing video.

For the first generation, I disliked it when it came out, gradually warmed up to it, and now, after seeing them for almost 4 years, think I could live with one.

When I first saw the 2nd gen xB 2 months ago, kinda I liked it, but now think it is the hottest thing under 20k.

I like how the guy sits up and tries to look bigger as the pics progress.

Stranger, thanks for the pics. For the record, I did believe him and being from the motor city I can believe him. There is no telling what and when you will see it. I used to see all kinds of cars floating around Dearborn, Ypsi, and even Ann Arbor. I am not there now, but my brother would snap a pic and email it to me and in further investigation we find out what it is even b4 the general public gets to see the finish product. I am surprised this one is not riding around in Michigan, I ask my brother everytime we talk.


Stranger, thanks again, and that color looks good. Everytime I look at one, I am wanting it more and more. I may just snag the first one my dealer gets in the first week of May. That is what i did for the first gen. I was there today and they stated that there are alot of calls for the B2 and people are ready to trade. They have to stop the folks cause they don't have the car to give them and plus their appraisal may not be the same at time of delivery. They the dealer fears what happened the first time with our current box, will happen the second time around. More demands than there are supply.

LOL if the guys in the B2 were upset about having you photograph them, they should have just hit the gas If the HP readings are at all accurate, he would have left you (and any of us 1st gen-ers) in the dust!

AWESOME pics, man, thanks for posting Now we know they do...drive! On roads, even! :D (one more rumor dispelled, lol...i guess this will still be the 'rumors' board until every one of us has a 2nd gen)

Yes, I also saw 08XB (dark red), going home yesterday on 405 North at near Getty Center. The driver even slow down for me to take the photos. I had a good look at it and it looks nice.
If someone can tell me how to install pictures, I can post them.

Yes, it looks like one backup light on the left hand side.

Seeing the new xB2 in a stop and go traffic, it looked nice and sharp.
This new xB2 is not as radical as my PW xB1 and if I was about get Camry or Accord, I would get xB2 instead, it is a good deal. I suspect more older people (like me) will consider buying xB2 and Scion will have no problem selling all they build.
