In North Texas the sticker price is the price you pay. Of course, here there are no cars on any lots. You order it all and you pay the price listed. Period. I've been given wait times from 3-10 weeks. I found a dealer who said they could get it to me in 3-4 so thats who I went with.
 
For $18,075 (No TTL) I orderd a black automatic and have the following addons:
fog lights
rear spoiler
rear bumper appplique
stainless steel exhaust tip
cruise control
alarm system
floort/cargo mats
armrest
blue LED internal lights
8' Bazoka subwoofer
Upgraded Pioneer 6CD/iPod Compatible Stereo

i am going to go buy an xb in the next two weeks. i too was thinking of purchasing from Toyota of the desert. does anyone know if they are friendly, what is their dimeanor in regards to pricing and do they throw in anything to make you happy about spending your money with them. i'm hoping to get a good deal since i will be paying with cash. if anyone has any info about an xb purchase from them please let me know....
thanks

Mine came with floor mats and cargo mat; I think maybe they include those for everyone. Toyota of the Desert was good to buy from, I'd go back. I don't know how I-10 Toyota is, they might be good too. I financed mine, but the impression I've gotten is the Scion pricing is truly firm regardless of financing terms. They do a 2-week thing where you set up to finance it through them but they don't submit the loan for two weeks; if you find other financing, they void the loan. They actually called me after two weeks to confirm I wanted them to proceed. It gives you an opportunity to be an 'impulse buyer' for the car and then shop for financing later.

that's good to know......
i am not considering I-10 toyota due to the fact that their lot is so tiny. i have been at Toyota of desert before (their lot is huge), i bought a toyota there in 1991. however i seem to be having trouble getting them to respond to my emails. i'm suppose to go and buy in about 9 days, it will be the first (and possibly the last) time that i can pay in cash. i hope they have some dark blue ones with auto and i'll have to spring for a armrest too. by the way, Americas Tire co has some really nice alloy wheels for $80 each= $320+tax. way cheaper than scions alloys which are $665!
thanks, any further info would be appreciated. oh, and there's several distributors on ebay who have billet grilles for $70 (shipping included) i think i'll order one!

i have a blue nissan work truck....same problem. i guess they go cheap on paint these days. mine gets scratched just by the rivets on my jeans touching it when i get in or out. one day i even grabbed the door with the keys in my hand and that scratched too. i'm thinking that you might have to go white these days to coverup or hide those stupid scratches!

armrest by mnikos

Don't get the Scion armrest, it's very cheap looking and has no storage. There's one called Zeta (made especially for Scions) that has a leather-look flip-up top with enough storage for a cell phone, iPod etc. (not CDs). It's adjustable height-wise, and the whole thing ratchets up out of the way if you need it to. It doesn't get in the way of anything, it's really easy to install, and it's not much more than the Scion model (I think it was about $180). Just type 'zeta armrest' into your browser. I learned about it on this forum from one of the other great members (sorry, can't remember but I think it was tundradude).
