When Toyota first launched the Scion xB (AKA Toyota bB) in the US several years ago, it was marketed heavily to those who like to "personalize" their car. That means that there's lots of modified ones out there, and unfortunately a lot of them are quite tacky. Luckily, there are also a lot of tastefully done versions out there, and someone recently gathered a bunch of them up or a photoshoot. I spotted this photo in the Clubroadster.net "Dope Sh*tzzz!" thread, but don't have any other info. Any of our xB readers have more info on this meet? Whatever the story is, it's quite a display.

This is so funny looking piece of style )
got camber?
Though I've never been a huge fan, I think other companies could learn a lot from Scion's personalization programs. I think it's a cool idea to be able to customize your car right at the dealer, and most importantly, still retain a full warranty.
I know these things are not very functional (you won't see any bB's running 59 sec at Tsukuba), they have tons of style, especially done up right. These bBs/xB's look great. Makes me want one. Love it!
I <3 bB's, known about them since they were fresh on the streets in japan, that makes me OG
.
seriously though there's something about this car that really appeals to me. maybe it was the fact that you could get a subwoofer as an optional extra from the factory. ;D
Nothing better than seeing a clean bB/xB slammed to the ground on some deep dish wheels with the perfect amount of negative camber. Good way to start the Toyota month!
Here is the link to the thread where this picture came from.

Awesome crew..
looks like somebody is watching Family Guy in the passenger seat headrest of that bB
oh wow I assumed these are Japanese cars, my bad.

Those are the bB Squad guys. They are pretty much the epitome of the vip styled xB craze in the US. Love their boxes. And that wasn't a meet, most of those guys hang out regularly and take pics, but always sick pics.
here is my box, im not bB squad.

Its really too bad that Toyota didnt bring the REAL new Bb to the US. The American new model Xb looks like crap garbage.

@ bobberz: I don't think anyone's prepared to give you a warranty with that amount of camber. They do look very nice though.
I am not a bBSquad member and will probably never get an invite as they are invitation only, but I am a member of their site and they have some of the sweetest rides I've seen. but don't forget about us little xB guys out there for Toyota Month.
