I went to the track on tuesday night and you can tune the radio to listen to what the anouncer is saying about your car. So i'm expecting something like look at the sky-on or the box or somethin ya know? this is how the convo between the anouncers went

Anouncer 1: well looks like we have ski-uhn pullin up to the line to do battle with a gt mustang.

Anouncer 2: Wait that looks like a volkswagon mini van!!

Anouncer 1: Yeah, it's one of those terrorist wagons!
next run

Anouncer 1: Well here's the terrorist van again, no doubt equipped with the .50 calliber machine guns mounted on the sides.

well at this point i had plenty enough of them makin fun of my car so i proceeded to roll my window down in the water box and flip them off. when i got done with my run the guy told me if i did it again i'd be kicked out. oh wells.

When I first got my box back home, I was picking up this one girl for a date. She says, "What is that, like a Mercedes?" This was the one time I didn't tell a person that it was a Scion.

London Cab!
My dad even asked at his golfclub if they'd let it on the course as a golf cart

Getting out of my car one day a drop-dead gorgeous gal walks by and says, "Hey, good lookin', is that ugly thing yours?"

She was talking to my xB.

i was parked at the curb of a toyoya dealer and a guy was trying to sell a family on a corolla S and they asked about my car as they pointed. He told them its a new concept line and that they slow but gas efficient cars. So i took it upon myself to roast the tires down the road. I can stand when a dealer makes fun of their own car models

I love the jokes made for the solar yellow xBs.

Bumble Box
Short bus /special ed bus
Sponge Bob Square Pants

One guy from Nigeria bought one because it looks like the taxis from Nigeria. He's dressing it up like the taxis - stickers, etc so when friends from Nigeria come to visit, they will feel at home.

I've had a number of people ask me if I imported my xB from Europe...
Seems odd that it strikes people that way.

And K9, I have Official Word that the yellow ones are "Sponge Bob Square Cars." (This from a 7 year old - she appeared very serious about it - she even wanted to know why mine wasn't yellow...)

My name is JOhn, and one of my female friends calls me "Sponge John Square car".
I've also have the comment, "Does that thing convert the sun to energy?"

My wife's uncle stared, looked underneath, walked around it and shook his head. Then he said, "where's the blade? It's a lawnmower right?"

One of the clueless old ladies I work with asked me "What is that supposed to be, a cheap Hummer or something?"

Then she proceeds to get into her Geo Tracker
