My family has had good luck with Hondas....cough cough..... 
This includes my parents' 02 minivan and the 92 Accord that has 160K+ miles that I want to rice out and sell LOL....
Plus the 1984 Accord they sold with 220K miles to a neighbor who still drives it, my 1984 Civic Wagon (kinda like the box) that I sold with 160K, and my 1983 Prelude that my mom wrecked....she spun through the woods and bent every body panel on the car, some pretty bad, and that little thing still ran and drove.
The box is my first Toyota project to own, but I expect it to give many many miles, as I've said before.
But on the style issue....The xB is a true classic already. Especially as it's about to be replaced by that "thing". It is simple and clean. And it is a view into the future of autos, IMHO.
Not a view our domestic makers are seeing yet tho....

I plan on keeping mine! I've never wanted a car this bad!! Plus maybe if I keep mine, it will eventually be rare! lol People will say "You still drive one of those I didnt even think any were around anymore!" lol
I had it serviced last week and it had 33,032 miles already and the service manager said "Thats a lot of miles in sixteen months!! Good news is you have about six good years left in it!!" That made me feel GREAT!!!
I love my xB!!!!
BTW Im now at 33354!!! And I haven't even gone anywhere!!! lol
