When the xB and xA stepped into the game, they have both attracted a lot of people to the company and with the intro of the tC, we have gained even more fans. Over the years xB and tC have become heavy sellers with the xA's following behind. No matter what Scion did xA still didn't rack up the same numbers. Don't get me wrong, they sold but not as great as the other two. With the introduction of the 08 models, we seem to have a few people with feeling of dislike. I say give it a chance but everyone is entitled to their own opinions.

I have viewed the two models, stock and pimped(if you will) and in my opinion the xD will become king in sales than the xB. The xB seemed to have graduated in style where the xD, although new on the scene, kept the elements that attract people to the 1st gen xB. It seems to have that sport compact style, a chance of individuality. The two models haven't hit the street yet but this is solely my opinion and observation, and as an xB owner I hope my predictions are wrong. I want to see this company bolt to and remain at the top and the xb remain the vehicle of choice.

The xA appealed to a lot of buyers based on price and MPG. That is why so many autos were sold. It will be interesting to see who the gen 2 xB appeals to. It may appeal to more people who would normally look at a van or small SUV. None of the Scions were really heavy sellers in comparison to more established Toyota cars. It will certainly be interesting to see how things develop........

I know I'd buy an xD over a 2nd Gen. xB.

For me:
tC > xB > xD > new xB > xA

I'm thinking that as well, the new xD i'm sure will sell to the younger half of the people that go into a toyota dealership planning to buy a corolla.
