  • Its a Great Box - 2005 Scion XB

    Yes, people may laugh at the way she looks. People may call her names and point fingers. In order to truely love her you must look to the inside and what she has to offer. Know that the moment you set behind her wheel she is there to comfort you and give you a ride like no other. The feeling you get when you are inside is that of a luxury combined with a sporty vibe. So, drive on; drive into the sunset.

    I purchased this car for my teenagers as a economical, and safe second vehicle for our family. They have yet to get the opportunity to drive the car. I just fell in love with every aspect of this car. It out performed all of my expectations in drivability, fuel economy, and interior comfort. It doesnt look like much, but it was worth every penny. I told the kids we would have to get another one for them, because I was not willing to turn over the keys. Also, since I purchased this vehicles in Oct of 2004 I have not experienced any mechanical, or cosmetic problems with this car. If youre looking for fun economy, then get this car you wont regret it.

  • An XB in Nebraska - 2005 Scion XB
    By -

    Just bought this great little car a few weeks ago and I love it. I read every review I could find before buying it and most were dead on. The style turns heads, the interior (size and design) is amazing, and the questions people ask are sure to keep you from being bored at parties. My wife loves it too and is looking forward to the day when we can fill up that HUGE back seat with a baby seat, a stroller, and every other thing well ever need for our child 4 months from now: the space will happily accomodate all of it. Ours ended up at about 19000 (be careful with all the warranties, paperwork, and other "extras", they are good but read up before hand) and I think its worth every cent.

    I bought my xB in Jan of 05, and its been nothing but fun driving, customizing, and even cleaning it. It turns heads when on the road. Every modification has gone very smoothly. It is gentle on the wallet at the pump, but I think one of the coolest aspects is the community these little boxes have created. When Im driving and another xB pops up we always wave and generally ride together when ever possible. Scion car clubs have sprung up across the country and its exciting to be part of what I call the "Scion Invasion." Goodbye "Its a Jeep thing..." hello "Its a box thing, you wouldnt understand."

  • My review of the XB - 2005 Scion XB
    By -

    Its a great little car if you want good gas mil;eage. Does not have alot of power but has everything else for the amount of money you pay. Very roomy inside, you can easliy fit 4 adults comfortably in the XB. I love driving it everyday and my job requires lots of travel.

  • LOVE my box! - 2005 Scion XB
    By -

    Its FUN to drive, looks cute, commands attention. The gas mileage attracted me to it, then the unique look sealed the deal. I love it as-is. The only addition I plan to make to it is get some alloy wheels for it. Its the most original vehicle on the market. Scion did right where Honda went wrong with the Element. Its so incredibly roomy inside and I can carry four adults with PLENTY of room. Its cavernous for such a small car! Ive got NO complaints about it at all, so far its lived up to and beyond all of my expectations.

  • Scion xB - 2005 Scion XB

    I find the Scion xB a great vehicle to own its attention grabbing style are great,some like it some dont, but like it or not it will get your attention. The interior is very roomy with room for 5 it a good vehicle for a small family, just about power everything windows,door locks,outside mirrors, keyless remote entry. this vehicle comes standard equipped with lots of things that would be an option on many vehicles at this price range. but with many dealer installed available options the price of the car can go up very fast. With that said I think Ill be very happy with my purchase for many years to come.

    Im 64, and wanted a practical car. Was I happily surprised with my Scion Xb. This absolutely the best car Ive ever owned. Great price and VERY roomy! Everybody is amazed at the roominess of the interior, especially the rear seating. Very happy that I purchased a Scion Xb.
