yeah the tc is a nice car... test drove it and for its value its a really nice car. would get it over a rsx any day but thats just my opinion. my gf is thinking about getting it and i dont mind. just because xa and xb are really ugly doesnt mean that the tc is ugly as well. the build on the xa and xb are really nice imo. you cant judge until uve actually sat in it and drove it for yourself. (thats a fun hobby... going around driving alot of cars for the heck of it)

wtf? rsx is not a notch up in my opinion. a notch up is a s2k or an rx8 ^_^ and HONDA wont be updating the rsx anytime soon or at least the look of it. they didnt make any drastic changes to the integra for like 10 yrs. and they wont do it again. i mean the type R just came out like last year. the new integra is only like 3 years old. plus... i would think they would change the s2k first... and that wont be for a long time probably

 

The Tc is the perfect girlfriend/wife car. Its inexpensive, reliable, and very comfortable to ride in (a plus for me) and is still fun to drive when you get the chance. This is definately a prospect on my girlfriends new car list along with the new legacy turbo. 200hp supercharged in a fwd car is plenty fast for getting the groceries. Fast cars are great but the sobering reality of owning one is that unless you are a fan of speeding tickets you will not be able to unleash the true potential of your car in most city driving situations. I like cars that I can floor at every stoplight and drive near their limits without killing myself.

 

There going to be one in Dallas in a couple of weeks, I plan to be there an go for a test drive to see how it feels behind the wheel!



I still think the tC's exterior design could of/should of been more aerodynamic/sleek and sportier (even the Hyundai Tiburon has a sleeker and sportier "look") – I guess I'll see if I change my feelings after I see it in person and drive one.

But from what I've seen on their web site and in magazine pictures, I'll give points to the tC's center console. It's looks almost as nice as the new Volvo S40.

:D

 

I read the specs on the Scion tC. Nice car, especially for the price. Is it a performance car? Can be. It's got the suspension to move and shake. Will it waste my RX-8? Nah. But, kudos to Toyota for being successful at marketing their autos under the guise of a synonym for the word 'offspring.'

 

So the TC in the flesh today and for 17K that car is going to be flying out the door. I bet they will be charging over list because they could easily get another 2-3 grand for it. Awesome little car

 

coming from australia i haven't seen the scion's or those other little ugly cars...

do people buy them? some of todays cars are beginning to look too outrageous in an off-putting way

anybody agree?

 

i really like the looks of the tc, imvho it's what the impreza should have looked like =) if you could the sti motor in there, i'd be all over that. it's fwd though right? hmm tempting, but i think i'd opt for a mazda3 5-door
