I think it looks awesome. The ONLY thing I don't like about it is the way the front bumper sticks out like that. I think it would look much better if it was at least a little more flush.

Cool car.

But.. what's up with the grass in your neighborhood? :Q It looks like you're in mid summer there... lol

It's FL - our St Augustine grass stays mostly green during winter, although one half of my yard has centipede and if dies off

can you take some pics of the xB parked right next to other normal cars like a Corolla, Civic, Camry, etc..?

I'd like to see the size difference. Take some pics from different angles if you can.

Thanks.

I'll see what I can do tomorrow

I swear if you pricks don't stop bashing minivans I'm going to have to show you exactly what a MOPAR product with the aerodynamics of a brick can do. I don't need an SRT prefix on my Dodge to go fast - it does it all by itself (with a little urging from the ghetto-mod department).

Personally, I just don't like minivans. Some minivans are less hideous than others but to me they're all ugly. Then again, my car opinion around here is pretty much worthless...I don't think visual mods to cars are worth the money and I drive a Saturn. :shrug;

Looks like a nice car. Can you please post a picture of a person standing next to it?

Good luck with it!

Does that thing have an engine or are there there holes in the floor for your feet to go through? It looks like there is no engine compartment on it at all. Its about 2 feet from the front bumper to the dash.

And BTW, why oh why would you spend more money and put rims on that thing? As my grandma used to say, "You can't polish a turd."

It looks kind of cool, but I doubt the highway mileage is that good with the aerodynamics of a house!

35mpg baby~!!!!!!

and then you woke up report on the actual mileage if you take note.

Calculated tonight - 27mph in pure city driving. (210 miles on the odometer). I expect that to go up 1 or 2 mpg once it starts to warm up here (about a month).

and another 1-2 when its broken in

 

[prontospyder]

congrats!

 

[NokiaDude]

New rims, NOW!!!! GO GO GO GO!!

There's a V8 in there. The engine in an xB is NOWHERE near the size of the one in that thing, and the engine compartments have roughly the same usable volume.

Most people do.

no sh!t? i believe my question was WHY...

if he's happy, why the hell can't people let him be happy?

 

[Layzee]

I like the different look... two people I know own a Scion xB.. one is the green and the other is the blue... I wouldn't really say they look like mini-vans.. more like boxy cars.. but then again, if you wanted a more aerodynamic car, you could get a Civic or Corolla like everyone else... BTW, like others have said, get rims.. they look much better with some nice rims...

Its like a mini van on steroids. Post pics with the new rims when you get them. How about some 20" spinners!

What is with all the minivan comments? I think some people are grossly overestimating the size of this vehicle.

Thanks, Elfenix for posting the size dimensions.

 

[kenshorin]

...at least it's not orange...

 

[Toasthead]

As long as you like it then who cares what everyone else thinks...thats what I say...congrats!

 

[Stifko]

Thats a hot car, I want one too. The color is nice, did it come with clear corners or you modded already? How much was it ? Whats your monthly payment and how much down please ?

anyway, what plate did you decide to go with?

WEll, I haven't submitted my application yet - I haven't decided. I was originally going to go with the winner of my contest "OMGHI2U" but I don't know The winners still got their money, though it's in transit now

Whoa. I won your contest? I had no idea
edit: n/m i guess someone submitted it before i did. dammit.

 

[CChaos]

Congrats! I like the first set of wheels you posted, but I think because of the unorthodox styling, you can get away with pretty much anything. Enjoy!

Oh, and my condolences to anyone who really cares what other people think of your car.

Be careful not to drive over it with the F-150
