Commence transformation. (More car data.)

From 2000 - 2005 the Toyota bB was sold in Japan. Clicking on the link you may notice the car looks very familiar. That's because from 2004 - 2006 it was sold under the name Scion xB. Due to the fact that it is essentially the same car (except for the steering wheel being on the right side) most of the parts are interchangeable.

Some of the people on the forum I frequent (way too frequently) do their best to convert their xB's into bB's by changing out the logo's, lights, and body kits. Not surprisingly, people in Japan also try to turn theirs into xB's. I guess the grass really is always greener.

That being said, my latest modification was to swap out the Scion radiator emblem for the Toyota bB emblem. Just something else to change it up. I think it looks better.

More blog posts to come, I just bought Black Lug Nuts for my car. :)

Tupac lives.

One of my favorite Dave Chapelle skits ever. It probably won't be on long though. Enjoy. :)

Shut up about your car already...

So I'm sitting at Jack in the Box drive through this morning getting some tacos and a pickup truck pulls up next to me and rolls his window down.

"What year is your car?"

"2007"

"Man, it is gorgeous. Would you consider selling it?"

"No way, just got it in January."

"Wow, well I have to tell you, you've got a beautiful car."

"Thanks."

I love the fact that my car looks good enough to have someone go out of their way to come check it out. And offer to buy it. As if I didn't love my car enough, that just put a huge smile on my face.
