Hrrrrm... looks a lot like an xB. ;)

[Astra]

And right hand drive. Bastards!!!

:p

[aalbertson3]

I really like the the extra features that are available. Plus the standard equipment is higher end then what the US gets.

[Astra]

That seems pretty common. Why is that?

[Toasted7]

Push button start, moon roof, more speakers (in C-pillar) and that sexy shiny center console. :)

[Cracker]

Like those taillights better than the TYC's.

[pelly3s]

I wish we could get some of those options. I love the tail lights

[Norphiuschris]

This are the things that makes me hate the US Version of the Rumion or xB and no RUKUS daammmm... Love the Moon Roof and the little extras makes me cry on mines... the subwoofers looks awesome and quite special on the positionint of it. And the tailights UUUUUFFF way better than the TYc's and US Version of the 2011 XB. WHYYY WHYYYYYYYYY???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Braintree Scion]

you can order a push button start out of Japan...the one that fits the rumion will work on the car and if you look at the dash by the ignition the circle punch out is there...it is like that on the d too cause in Japan they all have push button starters

[pelly3s]

mike try to get me a price on the tail lights lol

[Braintree Scion]

Really?
I might have to look into that.
Know anyone who sells the button/connectors?

[Toasted7]

Mmmmm... push button start.

Joel, lets get on this conversion... you know you want to have a right hand drive xb hahah

[Norphiuschris]

I'm really looking foward to do the rear conversion for my xB, but don't know what tail lights really to use, first the rumion tailights are awesome I love it but, they're no LED. The New 2011 xB tailights looks great but they are US not JDM oh are LEDS, Yeeess!!!. The Toyota Rukus have the mix of the Rumion Tail Lights and the new US xB with LEDs but don like the circular red spot 3D dot on the braking light. its like it dont fit a lot in the style, looks weird. but I Like better the Rumion Version either way is not LEDs. And the bumper are more shorter too.

[Cracker]

mike try to get me a price on the tail lights lol

x2

[Norphiuschris]

I hate that too, why they always send to the us the shittiest versions. That's why I love jDM way over the us versions. And Now I see Australia got the new redesign xb with other name and lots of xtras... DAAAAAAAAmmmmm we should make a group of scion owners and claim to the us dealers to gave us all those extras with no extra charge LOL... that's not fare!!!

[staygoldjay509]
