  Great fun for the buck - 2005 Scion xA
  By Derrick - October 29 - 7:03 am

  Ive had my Scion xA for a week and the aftermarket options coupled with the TRD package makes this car so much fun to drive. Its no Porsche, but it handles like one.

  My Fun Car - 2005 Scion xA
  By My Great Scion - October 25 - 7:33 am

  I have the greateest time in my xA, my dog is always in the back seat, and we both enjoy riding around town and on long trips in it. The gas mileage is the greatest. I will go about 380 miles on a full tank. Thanks Toyota for the Scion. From Keith and Astro.

  Good Economy Car, But Not Great - 2005 Scion xA
  By Ted Mer - October 16 - 11:43 am

  The Scion xA delivers good fuel economy, decent power, and has good features. Its road noise is a bit bothersome, as are a few rattling noises from the windows and dashboard. After 1.5 years of use, I have made no trips to the dealer except for maintenance. The turning radius is a bit large for so small a car, which is good for safety but bad for tight city driving. It handles wind, bad weather and city speeds well. It delivers okay performance on the freeway if youre not used to driving muscle cars.

  Wonderful xA - 2005 Scion xA
  By StarWine - September 22 - 11:03 pm

  I have had my 2005 Scion xA for over a year now and am still in love with it. Actually, I love my car so much that I convinced my mom to buy one (exact same color, too) when she totaled her Jeep. This car gets terrific gas mileage, turns heads at every stop light, can zip in and out of traffic like a Mini, and is fun to drive. I always wish for a little more power, but who could really ask for more with this set of features? I put in my own stereo system, but even the standard MP3 setup impressed this stereo snob : ) .

  Most Fun one Can Have While Driving - 2005 Scion xA
  By Jessica - September 16 - 6:23 am

  Was looking for an inexpensive, reliable car that would last me 10-15 years. The moment I saw the Scion I knew I wanted one. Almost a year to the day later I bought one. Situations had changed wasnt in the market for a car but all of a sudden found myself needing one quick. The Scion pure - pricing concept really helped out here.

  Does the job - 2005 Scion xA
  By bblhed - September 14 - 3:03 am

  I bought this car to be a commuter car, driving 60 miles round trip is never fun! The mileage is great, and the car handles a bit better than expected for an econo-car. They probably could have put a little more paint on the car than they did but overall, it has held up well with the abuse of commuting. All options are "a la cart" so if you decide later that you want to add something, the dealer or you can do it, no problem. I got mine with some dealer goodies, then added some personal touches myself. I was even able to add a tow plate so I can tow the car with an RV and it only took 2 hours.

  Still love this car - 2005 Scion xA
  By janamg - August 30 - 6:16 pm

  I drive this car 70 miles round trip three times a week commuting to work. She has also taken me and one or two passengers on trips of up to 1000 miles a time or two. I average 36 MPG, but occasionally get over 40. There is nothing to dislike about "Jolene" She gets all scheduled maintenance and I have had absolutely no problems with her. Shes on the original battery and still starts right up unless I forget the headlights. Even then a jump and 5 minutes run time is enough to "rejuice" her. Shes small, so changing a flat is almost easy. Her pick up is sufficient and she has absolutely NO problems holding her own on the highway with the big boys. She does not act like a little car.

  Best Buy for the Buck! - 2005 Scion xA
  By Cuppett - August 15 - 1:30 am

  The purchase of our xA was for an extra vehicle for our use. It has proved to be a great purchase. Very reliable, great fuel economy, sufficient power, and much more fluff and safety options than comparable U.S. models. You cant go wrong with a Toyota product. Our love for the xA pushed our aging parents to buy an xB to replace their minivan. Although they lost space, they too are very please with the performance and handling of their xB. You simply cant get more bang for your buck!

  Best small car I have ever had. It is fun to drive, has great gas mileage. It is different looking and everyone who sees it just loves the color and how it looks.
