The Scion xB?
Personally I love 'em. This is based solely on looks. I just think they like teh pimp. Now as for performance and what not, I have no idea how it stacks up. If they made them in AWD I would own one right now. If it's FWD I might still consider getting one.

But as for the point of this thread, what do you guys think of them?

Oh yeah about your question, they're neat cars. I personally would never get one but I'm sure they're fun.

Yeah living in the midwest blows. :sad:
Everything here is 6 months after it hits either coast.
But I guess there are pros and cons with living anywhere. I mean I don't have to worry about my state falling into the ocean . (Ok weak argument, but I don't have much else to stand on.)
