Many people here are the same way with Scion products -the first time I saw a xB I threw up a little in my mouth but tons of people loved those shoeboxes (until the Kia Soul buried it with the LEDs in the speakers and hamster ads).
To each his own!

I always liked the TC. If you want something a little bit sporty for the street with no intention of hitting the track I would consider a manual TC or a manual Mazda 3 2.5L. At least until next year when the Civic Touring 1.5L coupe comes out with a 6 speed manual.
I agree that stock GTIs look kinda boring. But lower it and get some dark tints and it looks sweet. And it's sporty enough for street and track.
But Scion XB and iQ make me wanna puke too. IMO I don't think there's any amount of mods that can make those look good.
