They're phasing them into the market starting on the west coast. They're not expected to hit us in the East for another year or two at least...

You know..I think I REALLY like. it...I am looking to buy a 2nd car by this xmas.. the possibilities are a VW Beetle, Mini Cooper (both are a little to expensive for me) possibly some used regular Sadan...I will have to add this to my menu..I think the base MSRP is around 13k

That is pretty cool looking. It looks like a mini Matrix. That would be a good car to scoot around town with.

Kinda looks like the end result of a Mini / PT Cruiser experiment to me. Still think it is kinda cool looking though...

Yeah, according to "Import Racer" mag., you can order 40 aftermarket items including a CAI, STB, alloy wheels, tail lamps steering wheels, and shift knobs and have it installed UNDER WARRANTY.GM should get it's head out of it's (removed).

I thought the Vibe was for the young drivers right...

I'd really like to find a CAI that I don't have to take the entire splashguard off to service. and not including the Krera Racing since they don't ever respond.

quote:I like the look of it... Very nice.. That's because it's basically a shortened Matrix/Vibe. I live in L.A. and have seen both models at dealerships and one nice looking (albeit Elementish) xB. Now that I know they're Toyotas, I won't pass them off as crap .

UPDATE: Just checked http://www.scion.com...east coast is slated for Feb 04...you can always buy one from CA and drive it back. If I hadn't bought my Vibe from the local dealership, my next move would be order one from Seattle and ship or drive it up. I did that with my '00 Cougar.

I don't know if I could properly adjust to that dash. I've heard it's great and wonderful and all that, but I don't know about that. In the Vibe, depending on who else is riding, it's nice for everyone to not be able to see the speedometer sometimes. The xA is rated the xA at 33 city/38 hwy, xB at 31 city/35 hwy (US MPG). 1.5 L @ 108 HP.I'd just as soon get another Vibe or a Matrix instead of one of these.

That's a nice looking car, the design is much cleaner than the Matrix, but it's still not as good looking as the Vibe.
