Default Would you purchase an xB again?

Are you happy with your xB purchase?

What did you trade in for your xB?

Yes I am happy with my xB purchase.

But I would under absolutely NO circumstance purchase it again...





... I've already paid for it.

Yes. And would consider another one, especially if they make available here the 4WD and sunroof models which are available in Japan.

I bought my XB for the fun of it. I have two other cars.
After having it for two months and having put 700 miles on it, I would like to get another one to daily drive and leave the one I have now as my low mileage Xb.

For some reason I really dislike the orange Xb's out there. They look like toys to me.

My wife has a 2000 Corolla. Now that I have the Camo xB, she wants one too. We are looking to sell her Corolla and get a BCP xB for her.

Really enjoying the xB requires a certain attitude about cars and maybe even about life. With all your questions, I wonder if you wouldn't be happier with something else.

Or are you trying to justify an xB to someone else?

Nope,

I'm not trying to justify my purchase to anyone else. I'll be footing the bill.

Thought this was the place to ask questions.

I think he was just trying to figure out why all the questions. All you will get from here is opinions. The main thing to recall is if you want the car & like it. If you ask any driver out there if they would suggest you get there car I would say 80% would say yes.

As for being satisfied with my purchase, i definitely am...however, if i was in the car market RIGHT NOW, i would most likely look for something with more ground clearance and maybe 4 wheel drive.

I drive in the dirt TOO much for my poor xb to handle.

I love my Hot Lava, but I wouldn't buy another xB...My Lava let me down already with problems, and I'm already looking to possible trade it in for another lease...Maybe a tC...
