tha people in tha usa are stupid! if they think tha box is a benz. they need to watch more commie tv! only 1 peeep has asked me if it was a hybrid.i have had peeps ask me if it was an element. 1` tell them yes and i hate it. most everybody is whinin about 108 hp., you bought an econo car, you can put all tha mods you want on it and you will still have an underpowered econo car. if you drive straight line alot like freeways,what is tha big deal with all all tha mods and tha big wheels. maybe you just like spending daddy and mommies money. get on my ___! an old fart that dont care what you kiddies think!

ga.

 

that's ironic. . . most of the people on here that I've seen, and in fact most owners, are over 20, work, and have paid for the cars themselves. . . funny

 

Sounds like bondobob needs more fiber in his diet :twisted:

 

Here's my Mercedes xB

 

this girl's kinda hot. looks like she's one of the very few good models to be found in the import scene that's not fat, ugly, or both.

 

be careful man.. crack kills. lay off it

 

Somebody get that poor girl a cheeseburger.

 

So Bondo you are wrong. We like the "big wheels" dont know about you but the marketing is for the "kiddies". Im one of the "kiddies" and im not spending my daddys or mommys money sorry. Im sorry if I like mods on an underpowered econo car....I dont know anymore people on this site that put mods on their "underpowered econo car"

 

No thanks.

Yeah we were having our roof worked on a few weeks back.... and my father was up on the roof inspecting the work..... when here a come roaring up the driveway w/ the system goin....

The worker looks up and from what my dad said was... "damn!"

As i get out and work my way into the house, my father stops me and asks for me to come up on the roof to check something out..., so as i climb up the worker says "I gotta ask, where the F*** do you work? How someone at your age affording a MERCEDES?"

So i told him... "Drug money... lots and lots of drug money" haha that even turned my fathers head there for a second!

I'm now wondering.... would i betrading my kind by badging it w/ the mercedes emblem? haha j/k

 

I have a Mercedes Benz hood ornament and trunk star on my debadged xB. A couple of weeks ago on a beautiful night. Everyone was driving with windows open. I'm in the right lane heading south on Broad St., Philadelphia, and this white car in the left lane is matching my speed. We get to a stop light that turns green. I have a car stopped in front of me so I can't go yet. The white car with two bros. in it doesn't go either, but there's no one in front of them. I say to my passenger: "I wonder why they're stopping for a green light.
The next block they slow down and pull behind me. Then they pull up next to me and slightly ahead; then right next to me. They ask me what kind of car it is. I tell them it's a Scion xB. They ask me if Mercedes makes it, because their friend got one, but they didn't know it was a Benz.
I told them that I was just having fun. I said: "This is my $15,000 Benz."
They liked this and said it was a cool idea. They were going to tell their friend he should do this.
About this time the people trapped behind us as we were driving and having a conversation started honking.
That was the first time I've had a pleasant conversation with another driver while moving down Broad St.

 

I live in Memphis (moved here, not raised here), one of the most backward and undereducated cities in the country---------so one day I'm just out for an evening drive down the main drag (poplar ave) and here I am sitting at a stoplight listening to a mix by Donald Glaude, when I hear.........

"Yo"
I turn off the radio so I can hear him, "What's up?"
"Hey man, Is that one of thos Skee-kons things?"
"Na man, Its a Mazda"
(Insert stupid befuddled look here) "oh yeah, thats right, cool man"

keep in mind I was driving my MP5 which looks nothing like any of the scions





as you can see the resemblance is just not there[/img]

 

IT happened to me.i went to a hot rod show. and some biker chik asked me if it was a MErcedes..since this was the first time and didnt know that a merceded resembled the xb i said " i wish it was"..biker chik liked it then she took off with her biker friends..it felt good to own a mercedes for that night.

 

It will be a sad day when you get carjacked for your Mercedez xB!!!

Won't be a very thrilling car chase either. But there will be some hella ____ed theives inside!

 

Funny but sad...
i guess the thieves will be dissappointed at the chop shop.

 

i even had people curse me out and say my car is the ugliest thing on earth in front of my face with my friends around. that sort of got me but then i looked @ the car she was driving and i wasn't impressed either. early 90's Golf.

i've been asked if it was a nissan, a skee-on, a small element, a hybrid, "that thing must get horrible gas mileage" , then i tell them what it cost with the options i got in it and where to get them and they shut up. but i don't think that the people i talked too were the least bit intristed in buying a square toyota. it was either this or stick with nothing so i wen't with a trend setter scion corp. xB model in Black Cherry Pearl with a five speed manual gear box

nuff said

 

werd.

i still get my 15 min of fame with the wondering faces :D
thats wut i live for.

 

never got mistaken for a mercedes but get asked "that thing gets good mpg right?" "hybird?" "That boxcar is pimpin!" So many things I dont even remember. The best is the people that when you pull up the mouths drop. Love it unless im rushing!!!
