Autoblog just posted a vid about the xB, and i read some comments about the vid and seriously why are there so many xB haters out there? I dont think the 08 xB is that wacky or weird looking to draw so much negative attention, if anything i thinik it is stream line compared to the last xB.

Seems like some people having nothing better to do then make fun of cars cooler then theirs lol.


One of the few things that are the same about the xB1 and xB2 is, both are rejected by the majority.

Heres the vid if you want to watch but beware there is not much good said about our box.

OMFG I was about to post this!!!!!!

Hahaa you beat me by like 2 seconds!

 

Yah after watching the video, Im ____ed at them. I love my XB2 and no one can ____ about it. Personally I think its an awesome car and id have to give it a 8.5/10 review. It's not perfect but for the features and the price you pay for it, its practically a steal!

 

- They need to hire someone new for the voice over.
- THE TITLE IN THE VIDEO ON THE YOUTUBE PAGE SAID **2007** XB. Someone dropped the ball.

 

I had to comment on this video review.

 

yeah, also it said the interior features are awful, then goes on to say that it has lots of cubbies, a good stereo with mp3 player and ipod capability, nicely placed gauges.

The whole Video had a negative feel to it, even though the only thing that they really didnt like was the seats, other then that it was mostly subjective style opinions. Not a very good review if you ask me, for any vehicle.

Its like honda is paying off autoblog to write bad reviews on it.

 

i agree with the body roll but i fixed that with some sexy DFs and a couple of bars..

otherwise i guess this guy was entitled to his opinion. i still like autoblog though. i think the site is wonderfully written and fantastically entertaining.

 

i was ____ied when they said "it's so uncomfortable, it makes parking and walking enjoyable."

 

seriosly, i think it is very comfortable, especially for long trips, i drove a friend of mines silverado for a day and my back was so sore, but never have problems with my xB.

 

storm trooper. lmao! i cant stand to look at the xb2 (the rear is good, front is hideous) but storm trooper made it just a bit more appealing.

 

yea. They kept cracking lame azz jokes

 

you think the xB1 front looks WAY better?

not to get off topic but i think the front simply looks more modern and upscale.

 

oh between this guy and the person from car and driver who reviewed the xb as not a ferarri. this one is a good in so many ways as to show you that interns can do anything they are told to. on what he is 30 something as he says 10 years and works for autoblog so i would say he had to do 4 years of college or maybe two years at a vocational school.

i really like this comment
"While front seat occupants of the new xB may have more hip and shoulder room, thanks to the shifter they have less knee room."
stop driving with your leg spread out like a hooker. seriously i am 6 foot 2 inches i have yet to even bang my knee or even bruch up against the area where the shifter is.

lol this was was just as good

"The xB we drove was also equipped with a dealer installed TRD drone amplifier. The accessory list labels it as a sport muffler, but any performance impact was probably negligible while the audible impact was just annoying.

The idle of the four banger was lumpy, but it loved to rev. "

how they hell in one sentance can you find the muffler annoying then say oh yeah i like the rev. also i believe you drove the add on muffler.

ok so i beleive this guy and the guy in the video passed the car and driver review long ago.

 

This review sucked. I like the Motorweek review.

 

Hi everyone...First off let me say I wasn't a fan of the Xb2 at first glance. I was gonna pick up a TC instead, but the more I visited the Scion dealership the more the Xb2 grew on me. Now I am a proud owner of a SW Xb2 and enjoying the car every minute of it.

Everyones is going to have an opinion about anything. The things negative about the review I actually like about the car, except the slight body rolls, but a little lowering fixes that in no time.

So to all my Xb2 onwers out there, let them talk their s*it, but as long as we love our vehicles,drive them proud....Thats all that matters.

 

I think they were right on the money.

 

Everyone has an opinion and you know what they say about those.

 

f@ck these guys!!!! geeky your mama, geeky =)

 

what about the less head room... I have nevew been in a G1 but dam I was impressed with the headroom in my G2 !! Dam I still have 16" above me..........

 

haha, they said we wave at other scion owners "like we are in some kind of club"

don't turn this in to another xb vs xb2 tread guys, can't we all get along.
