I'm with you on the xD.

I think my biggest problem with the other one is its name. They shoulda called it anything else but xB.

NExB? I dunno. It'll probably grow on me as well.

NExB! I LIKE that name.

 

i like them both ! i like the xd for what it is and the xB2 because its more sporty on the inside it doesnt scream kia! (dont mean to ofeend anyone) but the long stick shift coming out of the floor reminds me of a ups truck, but the true reason i like it because its giving scion a "face" so to speak the front grill vents are similar to the tc and the Fuse concept which shows the direction there going in ...the future... if you look at there commercials you can seethat they are in the "mech"/forgotten/underground style era which depicts a aggressive stance, look,s durability and overal auto beauty! Next they need a transformer scion like in the tc commercial!

 

It's interesting to see the tC owners seem to like the xB2...I don't like it so much...maybe it's the photo. Some are saying it will grow on them...for me? Don't know...I wanted the current xB at first glance....never even thought twice. The xB2's bigger price and fewer MPG don't appeal to me. The styling is not "Unique" anymore, looks more mainstream and yes Soccer-Mom material..IMO. I will probably keep mine for a couple more years and look elsewhere. Although the xD looks kind of cool, I am kind of disappointed in the new xB.

 

I would have to see them in person but so far I like the xb2 better than some of the other renderings that had apeared everywhere making it look like a pt cuiser. Saw the pics from the auto show and its not too bad. The xd other other hand, is kind of odd looking but they could have still called it an xa becase it isnt drasticaly different.

 

The xD might juist shock the world. 124HP and room more like the current xB, I can't wait to see one dropped on some nice wheels. I'm also looking forward to the new colors.

 

I think I said this somewhere else, but I think they're pretty good. Nowhere near as unique as the originals (xA & xB0. Judging from those interior pics the NExB is huge, it's going to need all of it's 2.4L to keep up with the classic.

Overall, I think you Scion dealers better get ready. They look a lot more commercial so I think people will be standing in line.
