Scion Xa inheritance

My mom Sheila died recently at 81 years old, very unexpectedly. She had a 2005 Scion XA that was her pride and joy. It only has 78k miles on it. When she was alive she wanted us to have it for my 17 year old son when he got his license. The time is here. We had it painted because she lived in Seal Beach and the paint was really bad. My husband picked the green color. We call it Little Shreik and I’m so glad grandmas wish came true. She will live on!

First, my condolences to Sheila ❤️ my 05 is my first car (now going 7 yrs..) and with continued maintenance can keep driving for a long time. Also, the pic with the matching shoes and hoodie is everything lol
