Used 2005 Scion xA Consumer Reviews
123,000 miles later
I have 123,000 miles and the only problem I had was both front wheel bearing needed replacing. The interior still looks like new. Car rides too harsh and could be quieter. I am confident it will run past the 200,000 mile mark.
Bought this at a salvage auction
I bought this car from progressive with a little damage. Only had 58k miles and paid 1400 bucks. I replaced both rear wheel bearings (a common problem). This car drives amazing. Its a cheap commuter for me, since I drive over 80 miles each day its perfect. $15 and its full. Car comes standard with power options and its a toyota, so you know you won't have any problems. Almost put 10k miles in a matter of 2 months and its been nothing but great. Do yourself a favor and buy one of these now that gas prices are down and the car has depreciated.

Saved my life!
I was involved in a rear end collision that rolled my car multiple times. The roof was dented and scratched but did not crush. This car saved my life.

My most valued possession.
I was waiting for years to find a car that had artistic looks and excellent mileage that parks easily in my congested city center. I was getting close to buying an Echo as a serious comprimise when I saw the Scion xA was an option. I feel like they put a luxurious feel into the interior that I never expected. I love the handling. Like the Echo, I get blown around a bit on the highway, but that's the price I pay for the satisfaction I get when surrounded by "Stunningly Useless Vehicles" getting gouged at the gas pump. Usually the factory stereo is the thing you take out when installing a real one but the Pioneer is still earning its keep. I have had my car two years now and I love it more everyday.
LOVE
I traded in my 04 VW beetle for this car because I needed a small 4 door car. I've owned Ebony for almost a year now and I love her! So far I've needed 1 new tire, battery and ABS assembly in addition to the regular maintenance. The fuel economy is AMAZING! I love the way she handles, her roomy back door, how easy it is to park and so much more! I only have three complaints 1.No armrest 2.No cruise control 3. She has a weak A/C (in comparison to my beetle), which is hard with the FL summer heat.
