Re: Scion xA residual and money factor? [xyglyx]

Written by: Car_man on Sep 28, 2006 03:48 AM

Hi Chul. Toyota is not currently providing any sort of lease support on Scions. As a result, if you were to lease one through Toyota Financial Services you would have to use its standard lease program. TFS buy rate standard lease money factor varies by region, but it should be near .00300 or so. Its current 24 month, 15,000 mile per year residual value for the 2006 ... Read More...

Doesn't sound like that good a deal. You can buy a used 2005/2006 for maybe $11,500 with 10,000 miles on it + a warranty, so do the math. Read More...

what's cool is that I like the flexibility of either vehicle and I know the present 2006 and 2007 Scion xA gets great gas mileage. I like it's looks, it's steering wheel-mounted audio controls, I even like the center mounted gauges! :P I'm sure the tall Ractis wagon Scion xA for 2008 will get great gas mileage as well. My wife and I took our '01 Kia Sportage 4x4 out for ... Read More...

Thanks for that information

raychuang00! If that's the case I may just hold out for one of the 2008 Scion xA's. Our 2001 Kia Sportage 4x4 is at 118,935 miles and running like a bonafide champ. I will definitely look at new world order Kia's before I ever buy a Scion when that time comes. Kia is just too good to look over, my car freaky friends. raychuang00-you were the one on Edmunds that called ... Read More...

I still place the 2006 Scion xA

Written by: iluvmysephia1 on Aug 24, 2006 10:43 PM

on my short list, though I can't seem to decide if I want Polar White or Classic Metallic Silver paint. My wife is holding strong onto the 2001 Kia Sportage 4x4 and she isn't budging, sadly. :cry: Cry, cry, cry. Oh, well. I guess I'll just have to keep rocking to some fine Guess Who, Foghat and Tragically Hip in the Sportage 4x4's great stock stereo system. We're just ... Read More...

Scion MPG-Real World Numbers

Re: mpg vs. performance [Mr_Shiftright]

Written by: aatherton on Aug 06, 2006 10:45 AM

"... don't think you get any more power out of an xA or xB with high octane." The ball is in your court on the issue of whether the engine makes 5 more HP on high octaine. Let's see if we agree that these are facts: 1. The 2005 xB was advertised by Scion to make: 108 hp @ 6000 rpm 105 ft-lb @ 4200 rpm 2. The 2006 xB was advertised to make: 103 hp @ 6000 rpm 101 ft-lb @ 4200 rpm 3. The ... Read More...
