...The TRD suspension is a nice compromise between comfort and handling, and it made the xB agile in traffic. The car darted around corners without feeling as if it was riding on tiptoe, yet the ride...

...But this isn't a sports car. It's meant to carry a couple friends or a small family, your workout bag or luggage, groceries or a bike when you fold the second row seats flat. It's a small, low-priced...

...The surprise was the xB, for which Totoya/Scion initially had low expectations -- and why not? It looked like Frankenstein's head on four wheels. But the xB caught on, and not just with tatted-up...

Why is my 2008 Scion xB making a whining noise?

Will adding a supercharger to a 2008 Scion XB use more fuel?
I saw this http://www.trdsparks.com/displayparts.php?Mdl_dtl=570&Part_cat=3&parts_id=2238 and would install it to my 2008 Scion XB if it didn't use to much extra fuel. If I drive moderately will I get the same fuel economy as if I didn't install it?

Why should I also consider these? X

The retro-flavored wagon has been popular since the Chrysler PT Cruiser bowed--and that vehicle is still available, with a choice of four-cylinder and turbo four powertrains, plus a convertible model.

The Chevrolet HHR takes the same formula and gives it nearly identical powertrains, plus a little crisper styling.

The MINI Cooper Clubman's plenty more expensive than the others, but it has a third door on the passenger side and cargo doors to make loading and unloading easier.
