I must be hanging around in the wrong circles, 'cause all I hear is "isn't that the car that's so popular with all the soccer moms?" :twisted:
just kidding.
The moms in my neighborhood and the hiphop kid that parks my xB every day have all gone on about how they want one. Nothing about MTV though....

Then this kid comes up to me and goes off about his riced out civic (it had a plywood wing-no lie)- he had the nerve to tell me why my car was ugly/slow/ect.

I had my car with my dealer here in downtown Roseville at a farmer's market type event and hella old ladies were like "that's an ugly box." Like you said, I should take it back?........no way! Their husbands were diggin it tho, and with my screens on, it was a hit with the kids. Some hot ladies were in it as well. At least I can say I've had hella hot chicks in it now!

I'm not sayin that all the attention is bad, that was expected. Don't buy this if you dont want to get some attention and some questions.
But I'm not going to pretend that I care about the 'pimp my ride' car anymore. And I hate how everyone just assumes that I'm going to do the same crap to mine.

It's surprising how clueless people can be. I'm repeatedly asked if my xB is an Element!
How is it they know what an Element is but they can't see the obvious differences in appearance?
I guess until the masses see some Scion TV commercials or print ads they will continue to assume: square car = Element

when people compare my xB to the Element- I quickly say: the Element is an SUV, and th xB is a compact wagon...
Ohh and get used to the questions- I thought since Scions have been out a year-people would be savvy enough to know what one is-NOPE!!

I usually keep my stereo loud enough to not hear those stupid comments. But going to Blockbuster Video the other day a lil girl screamed "Pimp my ride!" when I drove by. Most old people dig it. I like the attention, but try to ignore onlookers as much as possible.
I had one guy the other day ask me how much an xB goes for, he thought they were about $35k.
"No, it's not electric, but it gets decent gas mileage."
"It's made by Toyota, kinda like Lexus is a Toyota product."
"No it's not an Element, those are made by Honda."
"They just started selling 'em here this month, so you'll see a lot more in the future."
Let's make like Britney Spears and run over all their feet! :twisted:

I here people say you got a shoe box or when they ask me what kind of car I have they'll say that little toy car, but wait till i put a body kit with finders and a paint job that will make it stand out than any car on the road, then well see how good the toy car will be.
