seriously considering one and i want to know what y'all think.

 

For me - it's ugly dash layout/materials. The xA's dash looks MUCH better.

 

really? i guess i've really looked at an xa interior. i guess it wouldn't bother me as much then lol. does the material used in the xb look/feel cheap?

 

hahhaah the car IS cheap..

anyways, the interior scuffs up WAY to easy.

the back seats are too vertical, maybe 1 degree more of angle..

as for the stock ride, the suspension feels like ___, its bumpy as hell in the back seat.

 

most of the above listed items are expected on a car at this price so I don't sweat those. Although I think the interior design is actually poretty good for a car like this. The lack of an armrest is the MAJOR bugaboo I have about this car.

I'll tell you this, I am happier with this car than I would ever have been with the NISSAN MAXIMA I was going to buy. I had a HONDA CIVIC EX before this and it was in no way as much fun!

 

I think the biggest thing is the missing armrest also. I never use one, but my wife always uses hers in our other car.

For a car this inexpensive; with this much style; built by Toyota, how can you go wrong?

 

I 2nd

 

For all you guys whining about the interior being cheap .... 1 what would you expect from a car that starts @14K and 2 drive a Hyundai Accent. The Accent makes the xB look/feel like royalty.

My gripes, the suspension, and that damn rattle from under the hood somewhere.

 

The Gas tank is to small. 11 gallons. With the kind of milage it gets I wiould like to fill up less often. More miles per tank please.

 

The sun visor sucks. All they had to do is make it so you can extend it when you use it on the side. Oh I don't like the new car smell either but that's a minor problem that will go away.

 

the tach... its so small and annoying. That was the only reason I considered a xa at first. Other than that Its nice, but mine isn't here yet so maybe there will be more when it comes in.

 

You're kidding right??? NOT LIKING new car smell??? Are you nuts!!!! You can't bottle that smell. I love it!

 

armrest....

 

definetly the damn armrest.

 

the clicking of the manual shifter by the way does the short throw eliminate the slopiness and noise of the stock shifter ??

 

The armrest..... and the fact that the vanity mirror on the passenger side is not there (Gotta take care of the wiffee, you know what I mean?? :D )

 

Rattles. I love the car, but even on one that's $14k I sholdn't have to spend hour after hour tracking down and repair a half dozen or so rattles.

That said, I have never been happier with a car in my life.

 

No complaints here!

 

insurance is going to kill me... probably just cuz i'm 19 and have 3 points on my license... geico quoted me at like, $1600 every 6 months... cheapest i found was esurance and that was like, $1300.
but like i said, it's probably just cuz i'm young and have 3 points... and collision is what really hurts.

I swear to god, anywhere else that stop sign would have been a yield.
Stupid cop.

 

The sheet metal seems a little thin...I think that if you sneeze to hard it will dent
Armrest, visors, material on seats have a weird feel. But guess what ? I still love it...like a ugly English Bulldog!!! :D :D :D
