Last week, Scion invited us to a preview for their SEMA cars at their art gallery in Culver City, CA. With DJ Virman from Far East Movement spinning the tunes from Scion’s custom DJ xB, Kogi BBQ serving fusion street tacos from the Alpine-equipped “Azul“ truck, and great Scion demo cars – what more could you want? How about a custom xD and tC!The xD Kogi Mobile Kitchen, made by our friend Mike Vu and his MV Designz team, is a partnership between Scion, Kogi BBQ and Alpine. The functional grill, mini fridge and sink all motorize out, ready to be fired up for hungry crowds. The Alpine audio system, consisting of a Scion/Alpine premium head unit, Type-R SPR-17S speakers, SWR-1042D 10-inch sub and a PDX-5 5-channel amp, turns this mobile kitchen into a party. Party’s over? No problem, the xD motorizes back into a fully street legal vehicle!
The Epic Cartel tC is a fully overhauled tC with a three-inch roof line chop. Remove the glass roof and B-pillars, add custom paint, seats and a big Alpine system, and you’ve got a one-of-a-kind tC. The Alpine system starts with an IVA-W505 in the dash and Type X speakers. Power comes from three PDX-1.600 amps, two PDX-4.150 amps and four SWR-1042D subs installed in the rear, which are only visible when the motorized hatch cover opens up.
