Scions arent bad.... But the xD's are the worse ones. Theyre so ugly. :-/
I think its by far the ugliest car on the road.

Probably why Ive only seen about 5 since theyve been out.

i've only seen a couple myself.

i do think the black one he got detracts from the ugliness a bit. it's nice and everything, it's just much more bland than i was expecting (especially the interior).

but at least now my fit doesn't have to rack up as many miles as it has been since he's had to use it ocassionally, his xd can take the beating!!!

SCION is TOYOTA. Scion xD's are nice cars, I was going to get one actually, that is my 2nd choice. The only thing that I did not like that why I did not get an xD because of the folding rear seat. When they are folded, is not as even or smooth as the fit. I was also considering a Yaris hatchback, those are nice with 17"s and lowered.

Well, I just figured that if your present model was making such poor choices, it's obvious you have a defective unit...upon which the warranty comes into effect and you kick it to the curb and replace it with a more "level-headed" model. :D

The xD is a good car. I was very close to getting one over the Fit until I test drove them both. The Fit definitely has better handling and a better interior design, but the xD is no slouch. It's got a hell of a lot more power with only a -1 mpg penalty which is pretty nice! It's not the drivers car the Fit is though and the Fit seems much more well thought out to me. I also could not live with the gigantic C pillar blind spots on the xD!

An xD will stomp you in a stoplight race though, I can tell you that much.

i agree.

the xd also has a digital mpg estimator, with an avaerage mpg read for the lifetime of the car (which i'm kinda jealous of). he's already been averaging 46 mpg, auto using cruise control. my fit's maxxed out at 42!!! :mad:

those estimator are usually off:D ask him to do mileage÷gallons when he fills up, lets see how accurate that is:D

i assumed that it had to be at least a little off, cause if it's THAT good on gas i wonder why no one else was really making a big deal out of it. i told him to do the actual mileage/gallons like i do and he called me a douche :)

Yep, your current model of "boyfriend" is definitely defective. Either put him in the shop for repairs or replace ASAP. Lol :D

My first post here. A little background...
My wife and I just bought a 2008 Storm Silver Fit Sport (5 AT) this past Saturday. We were going to wait for the '09 to come out, but we decided the get rid of the Sentra before something else went wrong. I really like the Fit; too bad I'm not the primary driver.

We test drove the xD, and it's a nice car. Good handling, good pickup, but the xD is certainly a small car. The lack of space killed it when it came time to compare notes. The front end is kind of ugly as well.
