Being tasked to produce a spectacular car for the SEMA show has to be one of the pinnacles of an import builder’s career, which what Mobil 1 had in mind back in 2007 to promote the new body for the Scion range, so there is not too much pressure there then. What they come up with is something that actually takes your breath away.
Teaming up with BRS Autodesign the idea was to produce a wonderful looking machine, but without losing the
These cars are just made for import builders, they have everything that a builder could possibly want a square shape and plenty of bodywork to mess around with, in fact when you at the Scion XB it defies all logic as to why this car would ever be picked up by import builder and racers, but they do.
Not only are these cars being chosen for the import builder treatment, they are fast become the car of choice many teams too and they really know what they are talking about when it comes to building a car to a very high standard.
This particular
It seems that the great looking and even better performing Scion TC has only been around for a short while, but it has been since 2004, yes, the Scion TC is six years old and it is still probably one of the unexpected and under estimated cars to be released in recent years.
The Scion is a compact but very capable car, with a 2.4 litre power plant, which in this case it has been fitted a Garrett Turbo and that takes it right up to a cool 300 HP, which for a car of this size and weight is not to be underestimated at all.
When people sit down and think about modifying a vehicle do they plan everything out or do they just let it happen naturally. It is a hard concept to follow, but when it comes to this 2010 Scion XB Truck you have to think that there is more planning gone into this one than any regular modified job.
The Scion is one of the only natural import builder’s cars, the shape just lends itself to be being modified and in most cases modified to the extreme. The guys that worked on this seem to have thought of everything right down to the motorbike that is
The van shaped Scion seems to have been designed for project builders as the shape just lends itself to be painted and styles in various different ways. Because these are square in shape it makes working on the car so much easier and the sheer size means that the car is going to be seen from any point in the car park.
The version of the scion has only had a few little things done to the engine, so basically the car is running as it would have done when it left the factory a few years ago. Most of the modifications have been done on the interior and
When we say everything, we actually do mean everything and it really does include the kitchen sink! This is car that has been modified all right, but not in the sense that we really think of when it comes to high performance cars.
This is a Scion XD and with the help of MV Designs they have developed this fantastic machine, it’s a sort cross between a car and kitchen as it comes with cooker, fridge, sink and everything else that you would expect to find in a regular kitchen.
It has been on show at the SE
Entering the annual SEMA show is giant step for some people, but entering the Scion’s Corporations, Scion Tuner Challenge Competition for the third year running this is the place to be and to compete in for any serious Scion player.
One team that has been there before is the Team Koshak/aLL STaR Scion xD and this is the XD that has been there and done that all before, each team has a mediocre budget of $15,000 which may seem to be a lot, but w
Yet another Scion XD has made its way onto the show scene and this one has really made an impact, it is not just down to the bright orange paintwork either. This car is a superb example of what is normally an average car.
This car was actually given to the builders to work on and I suppose that it is fair enough to say that the manufacturers have supplied most of the accessories that are on the car too. Therefor
The more that we see Scion XB’s the more that we seem to like them and that means that even more people come along with one of these cars. The cycle continues and eventually these cars will be appearing at more shows and more events.
The thing about these cars is that like many people these cars looked like vans with windows in the in the side and so the transformation of the van to a serious import builders d
This is a car that was only first launched in 2004 and so it has taken its time to trickle through the import builder sector. But now the older ones are around five years old we are gradually seeing more Scion TC’s being worked and the finished items are coming out looking pretty spectacular and one in gold stands out from the crowd.
The great thing about the Scion TC is that a lot of the parts are from Toyota
