Not for long rides
Got the car brand new in '04 and used it mostly around town with the occasional 200 mile weekend trip. Great value for the money in terms of low purchase price and low operating cost. Power is what one might expect from a 108-hp motor but the 5-spd manual trans made the driving experience a bit more interesting. A 6th gear would be perfect for speeds over 70mph. Ride quality is bouncy on the interstate because of the short wheelbase and firm suspension but it's a blast around corners and when zipping around city traffic. 5 yrs and 50K miles later, I can say it was an overall positive experience. Would I buy a Scion again? Not likely. Just traded it in for a sporty euro sedan last week.
I Love Love Love my Scion xa
From the moment I got behind the wheel of my Scion I have had nothing less then a blast. I was amazed at how easy it was to drive and the get up and go in it was amazing. I can park it anywhere and not worry about weither it will be a tight fit or not. It's got personality not just another set of wheels on the road.

I love my Scion Xa
I purchased a "black cherry" 2005 Scion Xa in January, and I love it. It's more roomy inside than many larger vehicles, the gas mileage is fantastic, and it handles well and is easy to drive. It's a cute little car and turns heads; strangers often approach me in parking lots and say they like my car and ask questions about it. I have often sat in restaurants and seen people out the window looking at it in the parking lot. The all-wheel drive makes it easy to handle in snow, and the rear defroster and wiper make it a good vehicle to have in bad weather. In these times of high gas prices, I have never spent more than $17 to fill it (even when the gage said it was almost empty).
Excellent!
I love this car, I've had Toyota's in the past, this car exceeds them all, fun to drive, great looking small car, comfortable interior, great gas mileage. Would recomend it to anyone!
Grandma's car
Fun to drive, just the right size for a single grandma and her dog. Back folds down for hauling plants. Now if I can just stop backing into my golf cart.
