Scion VS. Cube

Which one do you think is Uglier? We were looking at Nissan's today and sat in a Cube. It seems to be a good inexpensive Knock Around kind of ride. We're going to look at a Scion also. Any owners out there.

I would whole heartedly say Toyota/Scion quality would be the best bet! Scion XB is also larger inside. I may be wrong, but I think ABDSSR has the Scion.

I think if I parked a Cube or a Scion in my driveway, then my SSR would run away from home.

I hear the Cube and the Scion are popular with the young people.

I guess it's time to update that old saying, and re-make it as, "Never trust anyone under thirty."

I love the concept of these small vans. I also like the Kia Soul which is a little sportier than the Scion or Cube. But then, everyone knows I'm a little strange that way........

I drive an 08 XB and LOVE it! Get 32 or so on the highway, has a lot of standard safety options on it, rides great, no issues, very peppy engine, a ton of inside room, etc...... I hate the look of the original Xb but the new one caught my eye and I am glad I bought it. Depending on what new toy I get I may keep or sell it but it won't be sold due to any dislikes though. Scion must have done something right, everyone is copying the look although I am not sure about the other vehicles and build quality or bang for the buck.

Good luck in the decision, PM me if you want any specifics

Is the Kia Soul the one with cute commercial, featuring the rodents? Of course, I admit that I first thought it was an ad for a car stereo system.

I guess if I ever find myself driving one of those, then I'd have to put one of those Go Go Pets hamsters on the dashboard.

Cute commercial is the Kia Soul...

Someone at work just got a new Kia Soul, its not bad looking. The Scion doesn't look as top-heavy anymore as the Cube. I'm not fond of Nissan products but do like the asymetrical look of the Cube's window.

My favorite is the Scion Hako concept vehicle for "gamers"...I'd put one of those in the driveway, but I'm weird that way.
