Love It! it's the best car ever made, it's blue and boxy and a standard and has little tires and handles well and is low to the ground and it is fun to drive and fits 2 car seats in the back and is absolutely poetic. love it more than any other car ever!

Pros — roomy
Cons — bumpy

This car is perfect for anyone who values fuel economy and interior space.  It's an agile car, great chassis, but the engine has only the power it needs.  Gas mileage is probably it's best feature.  The looks are polarizing, but I love it, especially the color.  Turns heads!

The build quality is decent, the awesome subwoofers have the ability to rattle plastics.  Interior is comfortable, front and rear.  I am six feet tall and can literally set the front seat to a comfortable position then sit behind it and with my feet under the front seat lock my knees.  Front seats hug your sides and hold you in place while cornering.  Dash layout is easy to get used to and great at night, all the lights are towards the middle of the dash, so you get a clear view ahead.  Visibility from the driver's seat is great.

Steering is tight, the wheel is small and feels sporty.  The car seems to have great grip, and after playing with traction control on and off in an empty parking lot in the rain I am pleased to say I really like it and it does a great job or keeping the car in a pretty straight line.  The car lacks power, but that is part of it's character.  It is not fast, but still manages to be plenty of fun, especially when there are some curves.  The brakes are good and I've never felt like they were underperforming.  Brake and throttle travel seem linear enough and are easy to get used to and brake response is quick.

The car will run 3000 rpm at highway speeds in 5th gear, and if the roads get hilly it will rev even higher in 4th at the same speed.  The car is made to do it even though it sounds buzzy.

Pros — Fuel economy, interior space, handling, value
Cons — Windshield collects bugs because it is so steep, no center armrest

Great handling, has only needed general maintenance for the last 2 years, mileage is a bit iffy on the freeway but its a super fun little ride. Interior is super roomy and the stereo has extremely good sound quality with an auxilary jack for my MP# player. You should get one!

Pros — fun to drive
Cons — highway mileage sucks

I like 2 things the most about my car:  1.  It is surprisingly roomy, when you would think it is pretty small from the outside.  2.  It is a very distinct looking vehicle.  I really like that it stands out from the crowd.

I think the Scion xB fits me like a glove.

Looks different than anything else on the road. TONS of interior room considering the size of the car. Small engine, but takes corners like a go-cart!

Pros — Small, great gas milage, unique look
Cons — Small engine, unique look...you either love it or hate it.
