I've owned over 20 vehicles, and I've had maybe one other vehicle that was as bad as this one. I've owned one other scion and much like this one, a 2009 XA, it too was garbage. This car has needed constant repairs. The door locks stopped working at 40K miles. Bulbs out at 60K. High pitched squealing when the AC is turned on. For a small 4cyc, terrible gas mileage. No where near the rated mileage.

My wife and I just purchased a new '06 Scion xA in Silver. This is a great little car for the money. The car comes with many more standard features than its competitors including ABS, Automatic, a great stereo, lots of leg room, etc.. This car also gets great gas mileage...38MPG! Here's the only problem with Scion. Their website makes it seem like you can build it online, and just pop into a local dealer and within about a week, you get your car the way you want it. Well it doesn't work like that. These cars are so hard to find, that you basically have to take whatever is on the lot. Also, why doesn't the xA comes with a remote door unlock thing?

As my first new car in 15 years, the Scion xA is impressive in many ways for a compact. Its handling is very nice, its ride is comfortable, and its controls are easy to use. One feature that takes getting used to is the pod of gauges. It is distracting at first, and takes your eyes off the road. The stereo is exceptional for a compact, and it is ready for the MP3s. Its noise level is good below 60 mph; above that slightly annoying. The styling attracts attention, in a positive way; it is reminiscent of the Mini Cooper. Its pricing is also a strong selling point. There is no haggling, very little in add on charges, and options can be added later. Cruise control, e.g., is $350 if added later; $425 if financed.
I LOVE My xA

I admit, when I was looking around I didn't think I would like this car this much, but it is fabulous. Maybe it was just my 19 year old Honda Civic, but this car is great. And don't listen to complaints about the ride, it is just fine. Its road feel is great. My only complaint is that the factory tires are kind of lousy, but other than that, I am in love.
I Like My Scion XA!

This is a stylish inexpensive car made in Japan and with high quality parts, good gas mileage, and a fun interior, especially at night when it goes NEON colors!
