Hello, my girlfriend and I just traded in her chevy cobalt for a 2010 xD! Overall I really like the car! Came with a few upgrades, the upgraded apline headunit, illuminated door sills and the lighted cupholders/footwells. The color is Black Currant Metallic which surprisingly I like.

Here are a few pics that aren't too good.







More pics to come!

Nice car, hope y'all enjoy it. It's alot roomier than I imagined it to be.

Congratz..

Hopefully your G/F will mod the xD make it "nice" instead of Fugly...

Looking in the xD section of peoples rides..People are not giving their rides Justice!

DJ08tC

We are so far! Yea it has a lot more room than we thought it would!

DJ08tC

right now plans are just tint and when I get money for new tires Im going to throw my old tC wheel on there. I would like to lower it some at least but not sure if that is going to happen.

now as for me the FRS might be in my future! lol

Is that comment even necessary?????? There are PLENTY of great looking rides on the xD forum that more than give the brand as a whole justice, let alone one make in an entire line of cars. I get the whole "this is the internet...free speech blah,blah" and you are more than entitled to your opinion. But that is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard, even on SL. A prerequisite to purchasing an xD is not a lack of taste.

OP- tell your girl Congrats on the new ride! Can't wait to see what's next. And yes.....she'll love you even more if you buy her wheels ;-)

Nice car.. I really like the look of the XD, it looks tough. one thing I would hate though.. is parking it in that lot!! both cars for that matter..

DJ08tC

Well this car is no more already! Less than a week old and it is already totalled.

Long story short, gf was on the way to work at 4am and 2 underage teenagers in one of their parents cars ran a red light and hit her head on. It completely crushed the front in of the car. She is okay, just has a bruise on her chest and a nasty bruise on her knee. Overall I think she was lucky and Im happy it happened in the xD and not her crappy cobalt.

Joebug

Oh Man... sorry to hear about your GF getting all banged up... that must have been very upsetting. well after the dust settles...make sure you pull out all the options you can out of the XD, insurance co wont miss them..
Hope your girl is feeling better soon...

Damn kids!!

DJ08tC

Thanks! yea Im going to see if I can grab the headunit out of the car! It sucks, all I know is we are going to get a new car out of this!

Here are some pics of the accident! Definitely scary!

Domino

wow, the carnage. glad your g/f is ok. these are solid little cars. i've been in 3 accidents in mine and all i have is a bruised knee out of all of them.

sweetdreamz

Holy bejeezus! That looks awful :-/ Glad she's okay! Scions help keep you in one piece that's for sure. Same thing happened to me in my TC and I came out of it more ____ed than hurt. Gawd that sucks.......so sorry that happened.

Joebug

damn... that is a scary scene... what were the kids driving? did they get hurt? just curious to see what kind of car the xd took a hit from and its outcome.

DJ08tC

Thanks guys. She is doing fine just has some bruises from the seatbelt and she hit her knees on the dash. Yea Im definitely happy she was in the xD and not her old cobalt, I feel it would have been a lot worse.

Not sure the exact age of them but the guy had a suspended/revoked license. They were fine as far as I know. He was driving a Chevy van. It broke down a few miles down the road and left a trail of oil/antifreeze all the way down the road. that is how they found them. The van was towed by the same people that towed my gfs and it was pretty bad but not as bad as hers.

Im just happy she was just starting off at the light when they hit her because it could have been a lot worse if she was traveling at a faster speed.
