Question Lookee What I Found

It ain't no tC, but it is the ancestor to the Scion line. What is it? I will give you a hint, I snapped that pic at a traffic light in Tokyo yesterday.lookee-what-i-found-mystery-pic.jpg

Close. It is actually the xB's older Brother, the bB. It is a Japanese market only product. It is an '07 or an '08 which the new xB gets its styling cues from.

Been seeing its sibling, the xA rolling around. It is Toyota badged and has some funky name, but it is definately an xA. I would so love to have my tC over here. Plenty of Silvas and Skylines running around. Now that the typhoon and earthquakes are over, I am hoping to make it to Toyota City in Nagoya to see where all of our babies were born.

I just completed a mission to Guam. It was their Independence Day there, so there was a lot of action going on. Happy to note that Scion has a strong presence there. I saw 7 tCs, a '08 xB, and an older xB. The first was a BC w/ some black custom rims that looked sharp. Unfortunately, I did not have my camera with me nor get the chance to talk to any of these guys.

So a shout out to all you Guam Scions roll'n out there.

Skyline or Silvas. They are a dime a dozen over here. Kinda like mustangs in the States.

Finally made contact with a tC owner in Guam. Representing Club-tC.Com. Gave him the web address and asked him to pass it around. Apparently, the tC is the hot car there. In fact, Scion cars were roll'n everywhere with plenty of xA's and xB's. The guy told me that there are several car clubs on the island and one all Scion club. I caught a glimpse of what looked like a silver tC with a Christian Rado widebody kit.

Sad to report this, but due to 2 typhoons, 2 earthquakes, and my busy mission schedule, I was not able to visit Toyota City nor any speed shops in Osaka.
