I'm wanting to buy a new XB but don't like any of the 2008 colors. I'm hoping that the 2009's will have a better color selection. Anyone know anything about this? My only other choice is to have a custom paint job but I don't really want to spend the money. I've heard about the new gold one which sounds nice, but I really need the black interior because I have kids!

Welcome to the site!

No word yet on a change of colors, if any, for the '09 model year... As for the interior of the RS, it's mostly black, w/ some gold accents. Have you seen pics?

I've got 2 kids and a Gold xB RS. Most of the gold is on the dash area. The seat material is still dark, with gold accents.

As for the new colors, I don't know. I didn't like too many of the 08 colors either. It was gonna be black if it wasn't gold.

If I hadn't gone gold it would been white. Only color that I could have wanted more would have been a bright blue. They actually have an ad with a bright blue xB that I saw once in a tuner mag. If that color existed I would been all over it.

I was at the NY Car Show and I asked at the Scion display what changes would be in store for 2009 and the guy there said the only real change will be one additional color - a more metallic silver.

Apparently the new color will be Stingray Metallic (a light blue) and Nautical Blue Metallic will be ousted

I understand the "pure price" no-haggle policy, but does Scion drop the price on previous years models when the new models become available?

I was thinking of buying an '08 xB next month, but wonder if it would make sense to wait a while longer if they will drop the price on '08 models?

Thanks

Not sure about previous year models but the moment the Gen2 came out the Gen1 went up in value. Someone one here actually sold there 2004 scion xB for $1500 more then they bought it for.
