The Xb2 needs a deep bright red (like the billboard I saw) & a charcoal gray.

If they came out with a dark/charcoal/gunetal gray I'd be very very tempted to trade mine for one.

There is a Stingray Metallic xA around here. Looks good on that car, but I'm not sure it will look that good on the xB.

I'll try to, don't see it all the time or anything. It kind of reminds me of the Azure Pearl color that came on tC's, but a little more blue. Hard to explain really.

If I had to guess it is an 09 color it still isn't listed on scion.com

I wish Toyota would have incorporated more colors like 3L5, 1G3, 8M6 etc.
It was a real tough choice between 040 and 1F7.
