That is not an xB. The thing that Scion is selling now, less so. The problem is not with the vehicle, but with the NAME. Scion said they would discontinue the xB when the new model came out. They lied. THAT is the problem. (IMO, of course! ;^)

I went to a dealership yesterday to get a part, and decided to park my gen.1 xb next to a row of 6 2nd generation xb's......needless to say my car got more looks than the brand new xb's.....gen.1 wins!

-Alot of money can make the 2nd gen. xb look good, but that sucks

the same thing happens everytime i go to the dealership over here...it doesnt matter where i park, people and salesmen come out and check my box out...guess i am doing something right, but toyota needs to do something different, i have seen a concept for the toyota lumino (or something close to that) and it looks so much better than the xB2, i heard rumors that it is going to be the new bB, i dont know how much of that is true though

if anyone is bold enough, its possible to do that to our box. Its pretty simple but cost tons of money. List of things you may need

- Custom Front Fenders (cut and molded)
- New xB or tC headlights
- Rear side window delete, filled and molded with body
- Black out A pillar (r do what they did on the xB2, put black vinyl)
-Modified Front bumper
-Custom Front Lip, Side Skirt, Rear Lip
- Blacked out Front Grille
-CANARDS? hahaha

think about that?

Amen to that. The xB2 is just gawd awfull. They'd have been better off using the new bB again. Atleast it's the right size.

Look at the PT Cruiser Chrysler has had the same body style since they came out and any changes were not drastic... I really hope they bring it back and keep it there as a classic.,

bring back the xB1 and name the xB2 like the xC....this new bodystyle is going to kill the xB...yeah the engine is bigger, but i would rather be slow and square than fast(er) and round anyday!!!
