  Xd save me lots of $$$ - 2009 Scion XD
  By kmpennington - August 18 - 2:56 am

  Tottally worth the money!!! I have the 2009 model, I drove to Kingsport TN from Hudson, NC...all mountain terrain and still got a whopping 33 mpg...I do have the 5speed though. I loved the way it drives and that it fills up for 40.00. I would drive my scion anywhere short distance or long distance.

  Worth the wait - 2009 Scion XD
  By Goog49 - July 18 - 3:23 pm

  I was replacing a 98 Civic Hatchback. Desperately needed Cruise Control because of my commute. Also needed Traction Control because of the snow we get here. Test drove the xD, Nissan Versa, Toyota Yaris and Honda Fit. The cargo area in the Versa wasnt suitable for my dogs, the Yaris would only accommodate aftermarket Cruise Control, and the Fits seat was very uncomfortable, at least for me. It took a few weeks to get the color and options I wanted. Gas mileage in the mid 30s, so far. Nice acceleration and overall ride. Interior nicely laid- out. Quirky exterior look, but just fine to me!

  Great Car For The Money! - 2009 Scion XD
  By Mike Sanchez - June 4 - 6:16 pm

  Over all Ive been very impressed with my 2009 xD. Im a little less than two years out of college and it has been an excellent car for the money. I never thought of myself ever driving a Scion as they tend to be a little quirky looking, some could argue juvenile, but thats what gives it personality. Over all car handling, acceleration, reliability, residual value retention, over all performance, and many awards has made it a reassuring purchase. Ive heard of negative comments about the paint job, road noise, etc but the optional sound deadening package, luster paint finish, etc (Vehicle Shield Protection) makes quite the improvement.

  Love My Car it Is perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - 2009 Scion XD
  By PRBEBA - June 4 - 1:10 pm

  I went into the toyota dealer looking for a car that I had rented in PR when I was on vacation. It was the Yaris very good on fuel. Kept looking and saw the new release XD which I fell in love with because the color was green which is my favorite color. I spoke with a scion rep. decided to get the scion XD. Great on gas. Size is perfect for me, im only 4"11 so its just the right size for me. I highly recommend this car to all. It has every thing you need.

  Love My Xd - 2009 Scion XD
  By Bree - May 18 - 8:20 am

  Traded in our 2001 BMW 330Ci & bought the 2009 Xd earlier this week. So far absolutely loving it. Its surprisingly roomy & comfortable on the inside despite not being a large car. The gas mileage has been great. The interior seems to be well thought out for the driver with plenty of compartments & were looking forward to having this car for years to come.

  I like my xD - 2009 Scion XD
  By Superhawk - May 12 - 9:30 pm

  Bought xD using Cash for Clunkers. My 1998 Ford Windstar had 218,535 miles and was the best vehicle out of 45 I have owned. I also drove the Honda Fit and Insight. Have 1,000 miles on xD now. Overall, I am very pleased. Decided at last minute to get the 5 speed manual. It was a great decision as I prefer controlling when shifts occur. The car has enough power for most situations. The engine is very smooth and quiet. Road noise is not an issue. The transmission shifts very well. The handling is tight and the brakes are good. My gas mileage went from 18 mpg in the Windstar to 31 mpg (mostly to and from work) and I drive fairly aggressively

  Great replacement for 14 mpg Jeep - 2009 Scion XD
  By Lancoman - February 2 - 1:13 am

  Purchased this vehicle during "Cash for Clunkers" (Thank you to all tax payers). Inside space is excellent; I am 61" and my head does not hit the roof > amazing. Got the Release 2 model in Wasabi Green > nice. Radio w/GPS, accent lights are main adds. I get about 36 mpg at 70 mph most times. Looked at Honda Fit; decided not be yet another Honda sheep.

  A great change of pace! - 2009 Scion XD
  By jseejr - January 3 - 1:10 am

  What an unbelievable car for the money! Went from a 2008 Honda Accord coupe, needed a 4dr for upcoming baby, and have not been disappointed. Great interior features like ipod hookup, steering wheel controls, cruise control, stereo cranks for a little car, and superb gas mileage. Originally thought styling was a little goofy, but have adjusted to it because its so much fun to drive. Best bang for your buck out there right now if downsizing. You wont regret this purchase!

  Best car for the money/segment - 2009 Scion XD
  By rubygem73 - October 29 - 11:26 pm

  I did my research ... I compared XD against the sentra, fit, civic, mazda 3, and lancer. I wanted a car with some power, loaded, good das milage, best resale value, and fun to drive. Hands down the civic beats all the others. The fit was close in all categories, but one test drive of the fit and youll go running back to the XD ... the fit has no power.

  Clunker Replacement - 2009 Scion XD
  By Whitney - October 1 - 6:06 am

  I work for a Toyota/Scion dealership and was the first person dealership- wide to trade in a car (RIP 1986 Mercury Cougar) under the Cash For Clunkers program. I was REALLY attached to my Cougar and the whole experience was heartbreaking, and it took me a while to bond with the xD. But dont let my ridiculous emotions sway you: the xD is an awesome little car. My purchase was between it and the Yaris S, and it blew the Yaris out of the water on so many levels. And to put on my sales hat for a second, this thing has loads of standard features, plenty of space, ample peppiness (Ive never owned a 4cyl before and that was a concern, no problem though) and legendary Toyota Quality. Just buy one.
