Replying to: sawyerml (Sep 13, 2004 10:54 am) I don't own either, but have researched both fairly extensively.   The xA certainly comes with more std features, but it gives up some fuel economy. If you're trying to compare the xA to a 4 door automatic ECHO the price difference is substantial.

Replying to: sawyerml (Sep 13, 2004 10:54 am) I bought an xA 2 weeks ago and I love it. My experience with an Echo is limited to a rental car I drove around Minneapolis for a week. I really like the hatchback configuration because I can put very large things back there that would never fit in a car with a trunk (even with a pass-through). Also: very nice seats with side bolstering; very good handling for an inexpensive car; excellent sound system. The gas mileage difference is negligible: use synthetic oil, put a few extra lbs. of air in the tires and drive carefully and you will make up the difference. I don't see anything about the Echo that makes it more practical. With the xA you get more useable space, better handling, better looks (in my opinion) and a whole lot of extra equipment for a lot LESS money. Can you say "NO BRAINER" ???

I purchased 2005 Certified Used Scion. 7/31/05. from dealer in Ocala Florida. Confident I could trust and rely on Scion's slogan "TRUE PRICING - NO NEGOTIATION". Scion N.A. regional office said indiviaully owned dealers can charge whatever they want. I learned a hard lesson - paid $1,000.00 above 2006 new Scion because I believed what was written.   Have no recourse - am stuck. I love the car but sure hope KARMA gets sales group big time. Would like to know if anyone else got taken besides me. Replies to this message: mikefm58 (Aug 13, 2005 2:50 pm) scootertrash (Sep 23, 2005 10:06 am) lalagimp (Sep 24, 2005 11:38 am)

Replying to: jmascaro (Aug 09, 2005 2:05 pm) "TRUE PRICING - NO NEGOTIATION".   You bought a used Scion. I believe the true pricing only applies to new Scions.

Replying to: jmascaro (Aug 09, 2005 2:05 pm) You bought a used car without first turning your head to look at the window sticker of a new one parked a few feet away?   Don't blame them. Replies to this message: lalagimp (Sep 24, 2005 11:38 am)

Replying to: scootertrash (Sep 23, 2005 10:06 am) Exactly. Why wouldn't you do the research before dropping over $10k on something? The used ones everywhere right now price the same as the retail ones.   I bought mine for $15k in April new on the lot, had priced them both... even went to carmax first to see what I could get for my Honda instead of using it as a trade because dealerships always lowball your trade value.   This was totally your own(original used car poster) oversight.

I got a price for an 2006 xA with XM radio, cargo mats, cargo tote, armrest, carpet mats, Indigo Blue with manual trans for out the door (includes 7.75 sales tax and all license fees) of $15, 255.

Replying to: tonytony (Mar 06, 2006 10:52 am) I recently went to a Toyota dealership and test-drove the new 2006 Scion xA, AUTO. Without any extra options which I believe there are enough standard options to satisfy, the price turned out to be around 15,000 plus taxes and such. I was very surprised to find out that the scion's slogan is No Negotiations () . Hope this is a general price for other Toyota/Scion dealerships around.
