The best car I've ever owned!!
We bought my Scion with 31k miles in 2013. In 10 years it's at 131k miles and we haven't had any serious issues. We've done basic maintenance like tires, brake pads, oil changes, 3 batteries, and 1 alternator (I have a loud sound system!). In a few days we're leaving it to have the wheel bearings done (possibly). Other than basic stuff and the tire issue we're currently dealing with we've had no problems out of the Scion. I absolutely love it.

Former BMW Owner
We just traded in our 2005 BMW X3 on a 2010 XB. The XB is almost the same size inside and actually fits a booster seat for our 3 year old daughter better in the back. The BMW was a terrible fit for car seats and the the booster seats. Nothing would fit in between the seatbelts. This car fits much better, but still not perfect. It's nowhere near as quiet inside, but hopefully it will not have the problems. We were getting ready to spend over 3k in repairs as our BMW has many issues including bad all wheel drive motor (1.8k to fix), A/C wasn't working, passenger seat wasn't working, and bluetooth stopped working.

Puts a smile on my face when I drive it!
Most fun car I have had in years. Had many Camry's with more creature comforts but I added MANY options so it is now very comfortable. The Camry motor in the xB makes a huge difference in performance. It could use a 5th gear but does well with a 4- speed auto. Back seats fold flat and their is an incredible amount of space. Put after-market alloys on mine and get many compliments. My fiance' loves to drive it so getting driving time is getting more challenging. Sound system is awesome. Even if they were options, needs telescoping steering wheel, heated mirrors, power driver's seat,5- speed auto, and a few other things. Otherwise, love the car.
The most fun for your money
The xB is fun to look at and fun to drive. Some don't like the styling (Hi mom!), but I smile every time I look at it! It has plenty of power and while it's no sports car, it handles well enough for everyday driving. The ride can get jittery over rough roads, but overall the ride is good. It's also very quiet inside, with less wind noise than you'd expect from such a boxy car. People are always amazed at how spacious the car is inside. Massive amounts of head room and leg room, especially in the back. I love the audio system--it has so many features and it sounds terrific. I call this car my giant iPod accessory! Mileage is good, not great. I get about 25mpg in about 75% city driving.
a looker for less
Bought this car as a trade for cash for clunkers. So far, the car has exhibited great handling, so so gas mileage and a good ride if you have less than 2 people in it. Things like programmable wipers, lighted ignition light and auto headlight shutoff are some of the options I miss that were in my clunker, that was in pretty great condition. I know this is the car that was built to be rebuilt, but after adding a couple of options you are spending much as a well equipped Honda accord ex. I truly don't see the great bargain for the new Young generation. I only see a great marketing idea on behalf of Toyota. I think that Toyota should squeeze a bit more value out of there option closet.
