You can take it as a compliment, but it wasn't meant as one.

The Scion xB's depreciation is incredible compared to most other cars, so common opinion goes against yours... Oh, that wasn't meant as a compliment btw

What common opinion? I doubt the xB's resale value is due to its looks. A box on wheels is a box on wheels.

Then what would you attribute the resale value to? Looks aren't everything, but if the car doesn't look nice, nobody's going to buy it. And personally, I like the boxy looks of the car. It's unique and incredibly practical. And like I said, common opinion (meaning people that actually buy the cars) dictate the resale values. This isn't conjecture, the link I provided is hard evidence.

The fit looks just like the yaris. If the yaris wasn't so well built and a toyota I'd have bought a fit. But Toyota in my opinion still makes a better built vehicle. As a mechanic friend said to me. Toyota puts more metal into what they build and their tolerances are more refined.

As gas milage goes. I still get 40+ with both my yaris's.
