The car came right out of the show room . from about 3 month there were issues. Transmisson rough shanging , jerking. Now at 70k it uses oil like 3 / qt per oil chaanges.Iam woking w/ deler on a oil consumption test . they tell me that 3 qt between oil changes is normal? One of the mechanics told me they were having lots of problems out this engine which is in the later modles of corolla and camery. Dont buy one.

Less Impressed than I'd Hoped to Be

Bought used in 2011 with just under 50K. I researched this car for about a year before buying, so I knew what I was getting. Been less than impressed during the past year of ownership. I wanted so badly to like this car, but the little things are added up to an unpleasant driving experience. If I could go back and do this all over again, I'd likely have gotten a different car, or an automatic.
Great little, around the town family car

I really love this vehicle. Getting in and out is very comfortable and easy. Especially when you are driving your kids to and from everywhere in town and have a baby car seat and stroller to deal with. The only thing I have noticed, as far a being negative, is the rattling noise the car makes when idiling.
A Shoebox on a Toyota Camry

With the 2.4L engine from the Toyota Camry makes the xB 2.0 a sporty little box that actually turns heads in a positive way. While I wish the automatic had the 5 speed transmission of the Camry, it shifts without a sudden jerk and scream of the revs from the down shift. I love the lounger configuration that allows you, as a passenger, to sit with your feet up from the back seat. Handles like a sports car. I couldn't imagine how it would handle with all of the TRD options: supercharger, racing springs, sway bars, etc. Interior has enough room for my son to sit comfortably behind me (6'3" driver, 6'4" in the back seat. Wish it came with roof rack option. Load cap. 850 lbs., that's four adult males.
