If this xB isn't playing "I'm on a Boat" on continuous loop at the SEMA Show, I'll be very disappointed.


Scion bringing nautical themed xB to SEMA Show

 

Whether you're a fan of its vehicles or not (and we're pretty split here at ), Scion's booth at the SEMA Show is alway a treat. With the automaker's support of the aftermarket and a veritable army of customizers putting their individual spins on their xBs, tCs, and xDs, the Scion booth is always home to crazy customs and tricked-out tuners.Scion sent us a preview of this year's show cars, which includes a nautical themed xB dubbed The Squid and an All Stretched Out xB that's been extended by 48 inches into a VIP-style limousine.
On the performance side of things, Scion is also featuring a selection of tCs. GReddy's example of the coupe uses a prototype turbocharger kit to boost engine output to 340-horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque. A trip of Tuner Challenge tCs range from James Lin's over-the-top aerodynamic add-ons to Shawn Baker's smokey, understated model. Event the little xD gets a piece of the action, being transformed into the rally-inspired Tarmac xD by 0-60 Magazine

  Archive SLOBODAN LEKIC - Associated Press BRUSSELS (AP) — NATO's governing body meets Friday to decide when and how to end the seven-month bombing campaign in Libya, a military operation whose success has helped reinvigorate the Cold War alliance. Meanwhile, a NATO official said commanders were not aware that Moammar Gadhafi was in the convoy that was struck Thursday in Sirte by missiles fired from a French warplane, and which led to his subsequent death. "The convoy was a clear military target," said the official who could not be named under standing rules. "We later learned that Gadhafi was in the convoy.
