2005 Scion xA - Never want a different car

I have had absolutely no problems with my 2005 Scion xA. I purchased it new and followed the dealer suggested maintenance program until I hit 100,000 miles. Other than routine replacement of items such as tires, brakes, etc., the car has had no work done. It now has 200,000 miles on it, mostly highway. The car is still driving well, looks years younger than it is and has held up remarkably on the interior as well. I fully intend to drive this car until it is unable to start and I don't anticipate that happening for another few years.

Story

On the roof, we even transport our three person canoe with no issues thanks to the built in hitch on the front left of the car. I am sure some people laugh at this tiny car hauling such a huge item.

Pros

I love the compactness of the car and the fact that despite that, it can still haul many large items, including my two large hound dogs! It is great on gas and can handle highway or city driving with ease. I feel safe in my car as well. In 2005, I financed about 16,000 for this car and it has certainly been a wonderful investment. When my car does finally breakdown, I plan on buying another Scion because I am so pleased with this car experience.

Cons

The acceleration of the Scion xA was never one of its highlights, and it has worsened a bit with age. I do not speed, so I am fine with its slower speed, however. Obviously, I feel the pros well outweigh the overwhelming pros.

2005 Scion xA - I am happy with this car.

What I liked about the Scion XA is that it is very low on gas. I like the safety features it has like multiple air bags. I also loved the sound system that was installed. It is very good quality. It still works great years later.

Story

When I first got it, we took it to Myrtle Beach for the first time. I really enjoyed how it did on the road.

Pros

I really enjoy the radio sound system. It has very good quality, even 12 years later. I love the fact that I don't have to spend so much in gas. I love my floor and cup holder lights. It is very cool to look at. My sound system is loud, just the way I like it. I like the fact that it has many air bags.

Cons

The top negative thing about this car is that it is so low to the ground. It is hard to get around in snow. You have to change the battery so often. Most of the time, I have to take it to the dealership to have it repaired. That can get expensive to do so.
