not to replace the contour, but to enable me to get more life out of her, by nat having to rely on her for daily driving. i got an 05 Scion xB, black sand pearl, 5sp. and a few options like fog lights, red leather steering wheel, and some 16" 7 spoke alloys. 35mpg on the highways....i pick it up friday....

Nice Ben!
BTW, where the hell have you been hiding? dd you break some limbs on that bike of yours again or something?
I got my new car (company) on Monday. A Bright Silver Magnum, but unfotunately she's lumped with the base asthmatic 2.7L engine. Even with the ESP turned off,it is IMPOSSIBLE to brake traction and make it donut.
But hey at least it's free and it's HUGE inside so it's perfect for pimping out when you go to the bar with buddies.

And even better when you leave with hotties! Ah, the station wagon (Estate in AussieTalk). So much room, so many windows to steam up...

Im not a huge fan of the xB, But it should be a good car... I like that its got a good size to it.. yet good gas mileage... If I got a scion I would get the tC. Should be fairly reliable to...

I'm not one to rag the Tour, not at all, but that cars gotta a great aftermarket already, including a TRD-developed turbo, so why keep the Tour, unless its the winter beater Personally I think that car looks great and with it being a Toyota, quality is top notch! Congrats on the new ride Ben
