It's a Monday and the Scion xD Community Project Car starts its first step forward with this ride page, a mention in the groups and its own landing page where voting is to take place! Since the xD isn't in our hands just quite yet, we've put it up to a community contest for enthusiasts to submit their design concepts for this ride. The images are provided for, but it's up to the users to apply the imagination. CarDomain will choose three finalists for everyone to vote on!
