Why do car makers seem to think that young ppl are a bunch of morons, and that we would actually want to shell out money on fugly sh!tboxes like the xB, honda element, pontiac aztec, and now I hear nissan is bringing their cube into the US. Since when did driving an ugly car become the cool thing to do? Oh wait, maybe it's because the older people are buying ther ugly boxes (aka SUV's) by the dozen? I would much rather have a sporty car, even a used one. I've got a 97 Integra (bought used), and I would never trade it up for any of those retarded-looking cars, no matter what kind of bling-bling crap ithey come with.

My $0.02

The Element and Aztek never hit their correct demographics, but Scion is a hit with younger people, they're snapping them up.

Leave me the fvck out of your sh!tty-car demographic, Toyota. Quit being bitches and bring back the MkIV Supra and we'll talk.

god all you people do is bitch, granted the xB might not be the best looking car in the world, however it works and its cheap, and thats all thats truly important, gets you from point a to point b, and does not force you to sell your kidneys to buy one

all of you that are in your "20s" and want the cars out of your demographic complain more then fvcking 3 year olds do

It's not really a brand, it's just a way for Toyota to seperate those products from themselves in case the idea backfired.

Friend has an xB, it looks like sh!t from the outside but the inside is suprisingly roomy. They should rename it to the hobo mobile, because only hobos go around in boxes.

yea its true. i've seen almost as many geezers in xB's as young people. i don't think i've ever seen an xa....seemed like the only reason for the xA's existence was to cover their asses anyways though
