The Scion xB, the car shaped like a breadbox on wheels, may have had a slow start, but it has proven that today's youth are open to a number of new automotive ideas, not all revolving around speed. The xB's two-box configuration (one for passengers, one for the engine) provides maximum usable space at a rock-bottom price. A comparably equipped compact SUV costs thousands more, but the xB owner can pocket the difference or use it to purchase any number of upgrades from an aftermarket that is supplying a huge assortment of parts and accessories, allowing an unprecedented level of individualization. Toyota's legendary quality, reliability and strong resale only serve to sweeten the deal.
