Let me start out by saying I like the Gen2 xB. More power, I also like the "chop-top" style.... But to me it's not an xB. What made the xB an xB was it's...

I agree, the Gen2 just blends in with every other car. I have seen the Nissan Cube and will definitely consider buying one when they come out. It is a...
I think if they didn't blow the rear bumper and the wheel wells out so much it would have passed for a gen 1 with a few more rounded surfaces. Do those bulges...
Readers: I concur that the new X Box is a sad excuse for the original. It reminds me of the VW Beetle farrago; the new one Is Not the Old One. Next a...
When the xB first came out I thought it was just ugly. Then a couple of years ago, for some reason, all of a sudden I had to have one! I sold my F-150...
On my 04 Gen 1 I have added lowering springs, 205/50/R16 tires and 16" wheels. I have added a cold air induction kit which really seemed to make a difference...
I've modded mine up a little. 215/35/18 fronts,225/35/18 in the rear staggered.Had to cut out the fender wells some. 32 off set in the rear. 2.5 inch drop...
Mr. Godsey, Im with you, I am a hot rodder too. Young though. Im 24 and I have a fully customized 1961 tbird that I am building, a 1969 mustang, and built a...
Andy, do you like the Panorama roof? Did it increase wind noise? I would love to put one in my 04, but I don't want to sacrifice extra noise, etc. On Mar 4,...
My 06 xB has just about reached 50,000 miles. I carry pretty heavy loads of building materials in the xB from time to time and have replaced the tires about...
Hi Jerry, The roof does have considerable wind noise, I just turn up my stereo and it dissapers!LOL After 56,000 miles it does rattle a little bit more. Since...
I'm in California, too. I am down in Imperial Valley on the Mexico and Arizona borders.I drive my 04 to San Diego all the time, so a lot more wind noise would...
I'm in Mission vijo Jerry. I'm an hour north of san diego and a hour south of LA. About 6 miles from the beach. You should try and make a scion show this...
I hope you are running higher than the door sticker recommended air pressure in your tires. I met a computer networking and phone guy with an 06xB and he was...
Thanks for the information Jan. At 40049 miles I had the tires replaced on my xB, which I don't think, is too bad. With the first set of tires, I religiously ...
The factory tires have 44psi max pressure so those are a bit lower. I run about 40 PSI in mine all the time - much better gas mileage as a result and a bit...
you all can say what you want about the gen2 xb but i still love my car. it dosn't blend in as much as you think couse i turn heads every day. im not saying...
I'm a first gen driver, but i have nothing bad to say about the 2nd gen. I've test drove it on the track twice and had all the alarms going off and it totally...
OOPS! I trashed my XA's front bumper cover in a parking lot. Any of you customizers/tuners in the Chicago area have a take-off bumper in good or excellent...
I tried searching, but there are soooo many messages in this group. I just got an 05 xB. The dome light is pushed back because of the sunroof. I need a dome...
... I have an 06 with the panoramic roof. i stuck 3 LED push it lights across the bar in the sunroof and have a map light for the cigerette lighter. I'm hoping...
I just posted a couple of photos of a dome light that was added to an xb. The pics are waiting to be approved. The file is called: "dome light" clever huh?...
List: I would ask the Readers: at what general mileage do you change the brake pads on these beasts? I get some rear brake growling in the morning, firstthing...
