2008 Scion xD Release Series 1.0

Isn't it about time Scion launched another of its home-brewed Release editions? Of course it is. And possibly inspired by the B-52s, the new Scion xD Release Series 1.0 gets a fabulous Hot Lava paint job to go with its added kit.

For $1,999 more than the base manual-gearbox Scion xD (priced now from $15,170), the xD RS 1.0 gets a body kit by DAMD, a rear spoiler, lower springs from Toyota Racing Development, and special wheel covers; inside there are seats with Hot Lava accents (ouch!), a RAZO shift knob, and more of the lava-colored trim all over the cockpit and dash.

Scion promises only to build 2,000 copies and will start selling them in dealerships this June. Meanwhile, please to enjoy the high-resolution pics--just click on 'em to expand your happiness and theirs.
