Found my dream car...delaying my Fit purchase
 

My Subaru has been acting up. Had to get new tires a couple weeks ago. Strange smell of fuel when the car is cold (its safe...had it checked out). It will require new fuel injector o-rings (or something like that).

But...I found it...

2006 Scion xB Release Series 3.

When I bought my Subaru I knew of the xB but ignored it because I knew my friends and family would tease me about the extreme boxiness of it. Now I love my Impreza but always kept track of xBs whenever I saw one. I was disappointed when they drastically changed the design in ~2008. But I found one. I just need to get past the fact that it has 130,000+ miles and convince the wife before it is sold. Cause I don't think I will ever have a chance for another one.

Are first-gen xBs really that hard to find used?

Sort of. I mean searches via the internet always come up with something. But the release series 3? They only made 2200 of these and this is the first one I've seen for sale (only seen a few on the road over the years).

still prefer subaru over scion :)
