It's time for a new car....

and the Scion xB is the one I'm leaning mostly towards getting. Took one for a test drive today and love it. I also tried the Scion xD, which I originally had more interest in, but it just doesn't hold a candle to the xB. I did a lot of research online for the past several months of the Scions, Toyota Matrix, Nissan Versa, Mazda 3, but usually had more of an interest in the xD and just started looking at the xB a few weeks ago. All the user reviews claim they absolutely love it, many stating they had no interest until they took a test drive they said it beat everything else they looked at. I wanted good cargo flexibility and a low price and this one only runs about $17-18K and cargo area and visibility of an SUV.

The dealership here only had the white and silver color (pretty much the same color as mom's van), but the colors i'm most interested in are the Teal or Stingray (Bluish Silver). Leaning mostly for the Teal since it's a little darker. Anyone else have any thoughts?

A friend of mine has one of these and loves it. Hers is about a year old.

Certainly looks a lot nicer than the original boxy version.

Do you have to have pink hair? If so, I'm not so sure this is the car for you.

Nice ... if the silvery blue one shown here is true to color, I think I like it best.
My verification word: surtive ... or is that really a word?
