Possible new Scion owner

Just wanted to get some feedback from some xB owners. I am not getting rid of my car but possibly looking for a second car. I want to know some cons of owning the xB? I have a supercharged 5 speed V6 Camry, leather, etc, etc and want a auto xB (not comfortable driving the manual xB). I am checking out one on ebay that I might pick up but truthfully I just wanted a plain one and wanted to try leasing a car for the first time. Here is the link. If it doesn't sell on ebay I might try to offer him 11k for it which would be an awesome deal. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2005-...QQcmdZViewItem

Are they noisy, do they ride comfortably, are the engines too buzzy? Thanks Jon.

noisy? kinda, but not much.
ride comfortably? not really, the suspension is stiff, you would like it in a twisties.
engine too buzzy? i think so. i dont really care...

i say you go to a dealers and test drive one first. everybody has different opinions on it...

I recommend the xB HIGHLY

Great ride, fun drive and TONS of room for the money. Mine's a year old and has really surprised me. When I bought it (I sell them) I figured I'd drive it a year and sell it off. No way! I'm gonna keep this one around for a while.

If you have any questions about them feel free to contact me.

Above all, the xB is a practical vehicle. I think it's fun to drive, and I think it looks great, too. However, I bought the car because it was a good price, fuel efficant an practial. All things my 1998 Honda Prelude SH weren't. I love my xB.
