x D is a laughing out loud face and was used by dominos pizza as a company car.. it is also great for delivery because the seats go forward.. don't underestimate this great hatchback..
great little money maker. for a plain gas car, its also excellent on gas.. I agree though its not the car for rough terrain but given the type of driver you are Id say its still a good little money maker..
4 speeds are reliable, and keep cost of the car down.In this segment, good reliability and low purchase cost is more important than performance or fuel economy.
Are you talking about 4 speed automatic or a 5 speed stick? (there is no 4 speed stick these days). Toyota makes great transmissions regardless of stick or auto.
Hey don't worry we'll still have the venerable 4 speed for years to come, the new Corolla comes with the 4 speed for the basic models, you have to pony up for the top of the line to get a CVT, not much better IMHO
What type of cars similar to the xD would you recommend, given the xD's old age and mediocre handling? I currently own an '08 xD and am looking for a small, yet fuel efficient car for I work in the city.

Why do you find it so bad? I guess I would get a Yaris iA, but it won't likely be as reliable as a fun blown Toyota like your XD since it is Mazda at Heart.
