I dunno about that:

The first generation of the Cube (designated Z10) was introduced in 1998.

The xB was one of two models in the lineup of Toyota's US-exclusive Scion division present at the brand's 2004 launch, the other being the xA, based on the Toyota ist.

The Honda Element is a compact crossover SUV based on a modified CR-V platform, manufactured in East Liberty, Ohio and marketed in the United States and Canada since 2003.

personally, i don't think it looks good. the design is a bit whacky.

I don't like em from the outside, but from what I have seen of the interior, kinda cool.

WOW this statement is painful to even type, the cube is kinda cool. But if I had to take a vehicle of that type, for some reason unknown to me I actually kinda like the Kia Soul. Flame suit on

The Scion xB is a Toyota bB and the first concept was in 1996. It was modified and released in late 1999 to the Japanese public.

No worries. They are both Boxes from two of the biggest Japanese automakers that came out in roughly the same time.

Either way they're both toasters.
