the xB and xD we saw in Miami looked a lot better, but thats because they had body kits and wheels. Just like our 1st gen xB and xA, they didnt look that great stock either, so once you start modding these ones they should look rather tight...

...im still up in the air as to do I wanna trade in my RS 2.0 xB for the new one???

"Gone are the moronic center-mounted gauges"
I guess C&D didn't like the original dash. That's a shame.

i cant wait for some interior shots..

i was gonna trade in my tC for the xD, but after seeing how ugly it is, and how it has that ____ty motor in it, im turned off.

but this xB doesnt look too bad, and plus, if it weighs anywhere close to what hte old xB did, this thing will be fast, im lookin forward to test drivin it.

the automatic even gets paddle shifters...nice

Thinking its a nice change, some really good additions, but the original is classic, feel like it lost some of that unique-ness that i am so attached to.

Car & Driver also said they got rid of the center gauges, which im puzzled about because the xB in Miami had center gauges but the xD had regular gauges...
