I was late so I didn't even get to sit in the one inside. Everyone I talked to laved the way it drove.

I'm not knocking the car really, they just kind of changed the "identity" of the car. One of the coolest things about the old box was the little car that shocked people with how huge the interior was. I think that's gone now. Overall, like MtCX said, I think it'll be a great car for the money (for my soccermom wife).

i herd some talk around the backstage crowd that scion did this on purpose to help out sales of the new xd. which at first did not make much sense because it will be a cheaper car, but than i thought about it and remebered that scion is built around accseories (sp) and the xd would be cheaper but maybe they would make more money off extra stuff. who know what really goes on in the minds of corperate people though. oh yeah and for the record thumbsdown on design, and thumbsup on performance and saftey features added.

and one more thing THATS ME !!!

We might not like the looks as much, but it drives alot better, car sounds like its in one peice and not everything ratteling like in ours(not the stereos). Plus alot of upgrades including horse power. It all and all feels like a more reliable car

To me the drivers seat was a little more cramped because the console was a lot higher. The armrest was worthless--no sure if it was real or just a prototype. The door panels were mock ups and not the real thing. The back seat has a little more room and some storage compartments. The trunk area is a lot bigger. I is a little bigger and a little quicker---but has lost its quirkyness and gone more mainstream.
A tremendous value at the price, but not our box...............

If so how was the drive?

How many people got a chance to test drive at Backstage.

I will be going to Backstage in Atl. on May 4. I guess now I know what to look forward to.
I did not drive one. Not because I couldnt, but because I was just busy and didnt take the time

they're not that much bigger outside, not as much as i thought anyway. The roof is about the same height and they definitely look longer and maybe a little wider.

The only thing I like about it is the performance and braking. I doubt that I would buy one... Ever.
