Gets the best gas mileage ever! Roomy yet compact. Manual tranny with 5 speeds has enough get up and go to blow by 'performance' vehicles when necessary

Pros — It's cute and small like me!
Cons — I only own one of them!

I love my little blue box (aka Smurfette).  Great gas mileage, tons of room, fun to drive...and I love the way it looks!

can build your car in many things like a honda civic
you can build a scion TC engine in XB engine (crazy)
you can go up to 17 inch
you can build like those movies (fast and furious)

Pros — make me feel like best car than honda civic
Cons — none

Tein lowered suspension, rims w/low profile tyres, AEM cold air intake, strut stabilizer bar, tunable exhaust, Pioneer stereo system, custom diamond plate floor mats.

Pros — Quirky. Sticks to the road. Drives like my classic Mini.
Cons — Only a 4 cylinder. Needs a turbo.

Excellent gas mileage, decent performance, and very economical. i have had 4 of my friends plus me in the car and it still operates the same. The VVT-i engine is surprisingly peppy. I bought this car specificly for looks and gas mileage and it is money well spent. Now that gas is 4.00 a gallon i couldnt be happier on my choice one year ago.

Pros — gas mileage, apperance, resell value, and its a toyota!
Cons — Sound levels at highway speeds, power.

Scion has created a car that is amazing to drive and so much fun. I
recommend this car to anyone even though they don't manufacture the
"square" chassis anymore. If you can buy a used "box" than a new 08 xB.
The new xB is nothing like the original.

Pros — Fun to drive.
Amazing handling.
Extremely spacious interior. (Better than 08)
Awesome braking. (70 - 0 in about 3 sec.)
Design is extremely unique.
Interior setup is very clean.
Not aerodynamic
Cons — Lacks performance.
Slow acceleration.
Not a great car if safety is a big issue.
Does not withstand any kind of impact. (Very crushable)
Not aerodynamic.

pretty nice if you are looking for a nice interior with great audio and no rattles and noises

Pros — great pioneer audio system, very reliable, good performance from the factory and nice interior...
Cons — no cruise control, and i wish i had gotten the standard, not really a con, the auto tranny works great,  just a personal preference...

Great car, it's fun to drive and it is quite unique. I have wanted one ever since I first saw the Scion Concept car and as soon as I turned 16 and got my license I was dreaming of when I could get one. Now 32,000+ miles later I am still enjoying my box.

Pros — Great gas mileage, plenty of people room, enough storage for an entire dorm room worth of stuff.
Cons — Slow; not a performance machine by any stretch.

Ok. It might be ugly and remind you of a refrigerator or a toaster, but this little thing can get up. We've got the tires, the exhaust, the rims, the system. Everything. The only thing it's missing, and this will be added soon enough, is the turbo. And it's a 5-speed manual. For being so small, it's got some pretty big balls.

Pros — Lots of room. Tight turning radius. Phenomenal handling.
Cons — No cruise control, and the aftermarket plug-in is on recall.
