scion??????

[98saturnsl]

who the hell is going to buy this ugly box it makes the element look beautiful

[crxlvr]

the Scion Xb is geared to the youth market, 14-16yo who will be in car buying age when it is released.

noone i know likes it at all, i think toy-motor is making a huge mistake.

moved from 88-91 civic/crx forum.

You get quite a bit of car for the money... both in the xA and Xb.

i like it.. slap some 19s on it

[98saturnsl]

my only possible reason to think that you guys aren't diguisted by this car is because it seeems like everyone drives a school bus i mean sport ute now adays what is the point of a huge car to roll in by yourself. it seems like the smaller the car the more you friends want to ride along!!!

[98saturnsl]

I think the element is a much better choice money-wise at least it has a huge interior not just an ugly box like the matrix or vibe or this new ugly box!!! what happened to cars like the del sol mr-2 and not the new 26K version now if you are young you are expected to buy the hideous civic si come on that thing is a step back the 92-95 hatch looked the best in my opinoin.

But the Scions are still small cars that drive like small cars. (Though I hope their tires aren't as skinny as the Echo's.)

Small car + spirited driving =

actually it is not that small it is about the same size as a crv that is pretty big . i am just kind of mad about the whole direction of the car industry to tanks that guzzle gas

xA:

from Scion's Site:
It supplies high performance, low emission and noise levels, and impressive estimated fuel efficiency – 31 city/37 highway mpg for xA with either transmission.

xB:

from Scion's Site:
It supplies high performance, low emission and noise levels, and impressive estimated fuel efficiency – 30 city/34 highway mpg for the xB with manual transmission, and 30 city/33 highway mpg for the xB with automatic transmission.

They're basicly ECHO variants. There's nothing 'guzzle-y' about them.

I meant like bigger cars like escape or envoy that get about 20, but now that just tells me the scion is going to be a slow big ugly box, i got no problem with the other scion just the box

I don't know where you get your information, but you have obviously never seen an xB up close. The xB is about 157 inches long, 21 inches shorter than the CR-V. The xB is a small car.

how much are the scions gonna cost?

[Hudson]

Both models are priced in the low- to mid-teens.
