  Just wonderful - 2005 Scion XB
  By elgin_browntown - December 24 - 8:10 am

  This is my first new car purchase, and I couldnt be happier. Great interior room, nice gas mileage, and great customer service. When I first saw it, I couldnt decide if it was ugly or cool. It was unlike anything Ive seen, but I have grown to love the way it looks. The price, interior design, and the practicality of the whole enchilada made the Scion an easy choice.

  SMALL OUTSIDE, BIG INSIDE - 2005 Scion XB
  By ANTONIO GUERRA - December 16 - 9:56 am

  Looking for an appropriate vehicle in which to drive clients around, I stumbled upon the Scion. Intending to buy a Lincoln or other luxury sedan for space and comfort, I inexplicably fell in love with this weird-looking vehicle with its unique dashboard. At first I kicked myself for what seemed to have been an impulse purchase...a nostalgic regression to my youth- addled tastes in the 60s, when I drove a "psychedelic" VW microbus. But The Scion xB turned out to be an excellent choice. My clients love it, and its an instant conversation piece that quickly breaks the ice. Even my tallest passengers are comfortable with its ample leg and head room, front and back. And what fun to drive!

  My Foxsy Boxsy Scion - 2005 Scion XB
  By Judy - December 13 - 7:13 pm

  I love this car. I am 50 yrs old. Previously I was driving a 1996 RAV4 2dr w/dual sunroofs. I didnt think Id ever find another vehicle that I loved as much. The Toyota came out with the Box! I love this car for a fun, funky, roomy, ride. Plenty of legroom for the big guys in my life 240 lb.......63" The senior citizens are paying alot of attention to the car & liking it as well.

  This car is very worth compare to tC - 2005 Scion XB
  By cpthk - December 12 - 10:56 am

  It looks good. The performance is so good. If you really want to buy tC that kind of sports car, choose another brand, because that is just look like sports car, but the material isnt at a sports cars level.

  Bought a 4 y/o Scion - 2005 Scion XB
  By Robert V - November 20 - 2:20 am

  I have been driving minivans for years. A few months ago, lost one because it was totaled. My wife was tired of mom-mobile and wanted something "cute." After reading a lot of reviews, we narrowed it down to used xB or a new Cube or Soul. I found a nice xB on Craigslist and bought it last week in Dallas, drove it home to Atlanta. First thing I love is the fuel mileage. In traffic, I got about 30MPG. Cruising at 70mph on highway, got 40MPG (240 miles/ 6.2 gals). Interior is roomy and comfy. Cool, or "cute" factor is incomparable. Yes, it is square shaped, and yes, wind noise is slightly louder than minivans-but, it is not bad.

  My Scion Xb - 2005 Scion XB
  By Barbara Burgess - November 19 - 9:56 am

  I purchased my Scion Xb last April. I thought it was the weirdest car I had ever seen and I had to get it! I am not a kid. I am in my mid 50s. I really love the car. I am constantly being stopped on the street by people asking me about it. I am a great salesperson for the car. There are a couple of things that could use some changes inside, but they are minor. The worst thing is that you can not get cruise control factory installed, and the one they put in is absolutely horrible! My husband likes to drive it so much that I think he will get one for his next car.

  Scion sets high standards at low cost. - 2005 Scion XB
  By Allen Cooper - November 8 - 3:16 pm

  Do not buy if you dont like people staring or asking a lot of questions.I bought it for my wife but since gas prices have been so high my super crew sets in the driveway and I use the xBox to get around.We went to the GulfCoast and it performed great.WE averaged over 30 mpg and drove OVER the 70 mph speed limit!With 4 adults it was a comfortable trip.

  My xBox; I love it! - 2005 Scion XB
  By bkc - October 20 - 7:10 am

  I knew I wanted a Scion Xb before I ever saw or drove one! The design is the coolest; sort of a cross between a Mini Cooper and a Hummer! The handling is great. Its get up and go is very good for such a small engine. The head and leg room are phenomenal (its bigger on the inside than it is on the outside!) The cargo space has not been a problem. Its not a luxury car, but you have to drive it!
