I enjoy driving my Scion xA a lot, and I do drive a lot, which is why I bought it. I have had maintenance issues with the car, having to replace the whole air conditioning unit (warranty), brake problems (corrected by dealer), and a worn out serpentine belt already (changed ourselves), all with less than 45,000 miles. I have noticed some shift troubles with the car, most noticibly when it is cold of course, but at other times as well, revving the engine to over 4,000 rpm's in 3rd. Other then that (lol) I love it!

just totalled mine on hwy 5. driving the speed limit, averted another driver's sudden brake slam, lost control and eventually flipped. pulled myself and my 90 lb dog through the passenger window. he's fine. i walked away with only a bruise on my knee. airbags didn't deploy but the car crushed around us like a cocoon, upside down. not even considering another car. soon as i can, it's right back to the scion dealer. though i really do wish the car had u.s crash ratings/tests available...

I am a student who needed a practical, reliable, and economical car to drive. I also wanted something that was fun to drive. Not many cars can encompass all these characteristics effectively. The Scion xA does a great job for being an economy car. It at has been very reliable so far with no major mechanical problems, and I get at least 30 MPG regularly, with the best so far being 35 MPG. It is also very fun to drive, especially witht the five speed. I am a beginner stick shift driver and this car is not only very easy to learn on but also very forgiving. It offers a ton of cargo space if you are willing to fold the rear seats down. It's a Toyota so you can't go wrong with that.

I love my little car. We bought it right off the show room floor. It is the best car I have ever had. I would never give it up.
