It is rather rare to see Scions being featured in magazines these days. Other than the ones driven by professional drivers and drifters, Scions in general are difficult to modify when it comes to performance or even just for style because of the poor aftermarket support. However, there are a few out there that are overwhelming, like this xB built by Mike, CEO/owner of M2-Motoring. I've known Mike for over a year now because of owning a Scion and always thought of him as a high person because of his renown work in the automotive scene. His projects were displayed at numerous car shows such as SEMA and LA Auto Show. But today, putting aside his project builds, let me introduce you to his personal ride, the Scion xB.

Event Coverage: New Dimensions - Longo Scion (M2-Motoring)

New Dimensions was going on yesterday for Scion owners @ Irwindale Speedway.
Left pretty early, but the pre-staging parking lot was packed!
Looked around for awhile...and was looking for cars to take pics of...
andddd to be honest, I didn't want to take any pics of other cars except BB Squad. A lot of the cars weren't my taste at all so I walked around taking pics of wheels, mostly xB's, and couple of tC's.

xB doing WORK
August 16, 2010
I'm always amazed when I see xB's pushing the limit to be hellaflush.
Seriously, how in the world can you work out wheel fitments when the widths are like 11~12 and an offset of +0 or even to the minuses?
Well here is another xB owner that's into the hellaflush scene and making things work out like it's nothing.
Danny sent me a short introduction and it can't get any better than this:
What he said is exactly what I look for into stance'd cars.

Remember I said pushing the limit and making things work out that seem almost impossible? Danny's ride is on WORK XSA 02C's 15x8 all around with an offset of -0(F) & -12(R).

Didn't do much to my box, i like the simple and clean look so thats pretty much what i did, just a nice drop and some fitment..I'm already liking this guy.

Hellaflush xB
August 8, 2010
I was looking for some guys, here in SoCal, who could refinish my new set of rims and came across this xB owner, Anthony.
There are couple of xB's out there that are in my "most like" list and Anthony's ride is one of them.
This xB has custom interior Burberry fabric, Burberry headliner, Burberry~Burberry~Burberry.
That's not it!
The wheels on the xB are custom BBS RS's, meaning the centers were powercoated in sparkling gold flakes, custom lips giving it a wide lip, ice cube stems, and much more to it. I don't remember the exact specs, but if I can recall all the infos correctly, I think the fronts were 17x11 and the rears being 17x12.
This was an on-site coverage so not a lot of info was written down.
If you want to see a quality car, you got to check Anthony's ride.

I'll update more info on the modifications later on



One of the sexiest BBS RS's

Brides with re-upholstered Burberry fabric

JDM Steering Wheel with Burberry Shift Boot
