funky ... and not necessarily in a good way.

although, I do like the xB and I think this thing would look pretty good in production trim (ditch the asymmetrical crap)

The reminds me a little of the Nissan Cube, that weird asymmetric box-looking car they have in Japan.

Here's some pics

You guys should see the Xb's in Taiwan (at least I think they're Xb's...maybe they're Cubes). People buy these things and mod them out like crazy--body kits, cut springs, huge rims, giant exhausts, tons of stickers (how else are you going to get more HP out of it? :p). Then they drive around the city in little Xb posses--like 5-10 of them, all in a line, screaming with their stupid coffee-can exhausts like it's supposed to be intimidating or something :laugh:

I am conforted by the fact that I am not the only person on the planet who finds the Xb to be by far the ugliest car EVER. Thank you all for your confirmation. It feels good sometimes to run with the herd ....


rbloedow, did you really buy one of these things? Why? What wer you thinking?

I actually like the look of the xB and would purchase one if I could (yes, I also like he Aztec, Matrix, etc). This new model though, looks like shit.

It's a Toyota, Tonnes of interior space, great gas mileage, more options than anything else at it's price point, it's a great value, and it's the perfect pizza mobile :)

It wasn't as ugly in person as on the net - besides, I was able to overlook it's quirky styling once I sat inside :)

Oh I respectfully disagree. I drove by one today and it is every bit as horrific in person.

You seem to cope with ugly things well.
