why do you care that it's ugly?
find me a car that is $14,500 off the lot, gets 35mpg, has a stock MP3 player by pioneer, and can haul an entire drum set(or in my case, 2 basses, a 4x10, and a 1x15, and a 4 space rack) AND is backed by a company that has built some of the most reliable automobiles in HISTORY

ugliness? whatever. i didn't buy it because i thought it looked cool. i bought the damn thing because it was cheap and practical.

edit:
2,300lbs and 108hp... it's no ferarri but it's still decently quick.

Toyota didn't build "some of the most reliable automobiles in HISTORY"

Mercedes did.

For the price, the 2006 eclipse is awesome.

You could be driving a sexy galant with that beasty speed and look instead of that ****** up scion that you bought.

I bet people throw $h1t at you when you drive down the highway.

Screw the "haters." If YOU like it, that's all that matters.

But I must agree that you need a better camera and/or more practice taking pictures.

From what I can see, it looks like you did a good job waxing it.

And why don't you respect Honda and Subaru? They are extremely reliable.

Mitsubishi has all ****** cars that are unreliable except the EVO. Not sure why you would respect that. Their warranty is also BS.

or a fvking scion?

Why would I spend $11k on a POS like a galant hen I can get This. I feel bad for you if you have a galant.

Notice how anyone can find a different car, and use the same argument. You are just a hater and need to have your head checked out. Just because you din't like the xB doesn't mean itis bad for everyone, just for you. When you understand that, come back with a valid argument not more stupidity.

look, mitsibushi makes OK cars at best, but saying that the galant's are more reliable on a small toyota is ridiculous. the scion gets 31/34 mpg. can hold more luggage, and will probably resell for more than the galant, which has a crappy resale value, and is borderline reliable at best.

and as for galant being a "sexy beast", the 2003 isn't even that good looking.

and for the record, you don't even know if you can transfer mp3's out and onto a damn mp3 player. so why bother comment on cars?

as for the scion, it's an ok car. personally i would have gotten a corolla/matrix but i guess for the money you can't beat xB's cargo space.

Why do I care? Well, because I have to not throw up when I see one...

Seriously, I don't give two shits. If it works for you then :thumbsup: just try not to call it "decently quick" because its not. The reviews show a 0-60 time in the range of upper 9's. I think I might be able to walk after than that after eating a turkey dinner...
