Default Goodbye Scion...Hello HONDA!

Wassup everyone...its time for me to part with my tC...

I loved it in the beginning..but now its just like the NEW CIVIC...to the point where EVERYONE has one now...im sick of it...i mostly see gurls driving this car...not hatin on the car just hate that everyone has one, but then again GREAT CAR for a GREAT PRICE!..no doubt about..I LOVE TOYOTAS ALL THE WAY...but no REAL PERFORMANCE CARS...which is a damn shame...sigh..

So I am getting rid of my tC...anyways, im getting a Honda S2000 instead...my freaking dream car....much faster..hehe...I should got this from the start but whatever....

anyone disagree...agree?!?!...I love speed and the fact that the S2K is rare[BLUE]...YUMMY!!!!

Since this will turn into ANOTHER Honda discussion...

Moved.

And I'd just like to add that the tC and the S2000 are not even CLOSE in comparison by class.

yah i hear you, this friday i saw the most tc around my area in a day that i have ever seen. The only way to change things is getting a body kit (kimaniri <spell check) since not that many people have em in my area. and installing a karputer in the car etc etc.

but given the gas prices i'm happy with it and enjoy your new car its definately hot except for the digital guage

Wow, do you guys REALLY see it everywhere? I see a tC once a week, if I'm lucky. And the S2k is an awesome car. Just don't get yellow, cause everyone has that color for that car.

I'm seeing tCs everywhere now... at least one a day, sometimes 2 or 3. Different ones too. Most ppl don't have any sort of spoiler, which IMO makes the car look funny. To date I've only seen one with the pedestal spoiler (and that looked the best).

But anyway, sorry to hear you are leaving the scion crew. I wanted a tC at some point too, but now that everyone and their girlfriends have one, i'm a little less enthused...

I was kinda expecting you to say you were getting the new civic (to date i've also seen one a day, but its the same one everyday).

I suspect if you were trading a tC for the civic you'd get a lot more haters lol.

I suspect you'll regret the S2k when you want to bring home that nice computer.

Actually! It'll be that much better! That'd be the perfect excuse to run four or five trips in the S2k..

Envy.

Congrats on the new purchase! Realize that the only rare cars are the ultra expensive ones, ie. Bently, High end Porsches, Masaretis, etc...

I'm gonna assume you mean no REAL PERFORMANCE CARS in current production. I think the Supra was a REAL PERFORMANCE CAR but I could be wrong, it might have just been a gas guzziling pig. I'm gonna go with my assumption that you are talking about current production. Good luck with the S2000 they are really nice cars.
P.S. Watch out for tC owners trying to jack your antenna.

Grats on getting an s2k, I hear they have a lot of mechanical problems though, dunno. I have only seen about 5 other tc's in the 3 months I have had my car so far, but seeing a lot of them doesn't seem like a valid reason to get rid of the car to me, sounds like an excuse;) Good luck with it though.

Some of you said you see them everywhere but then mention you see them once or twice a day. This is "seeing them everywhere" to you? I see more new BMW 5 series everyday than I do a tC. I DEFINETELY see more Hondas.

The S2000 is a sweet car, but not something I'd want everyday. Convertibles are so noisy... I'm done wtih them as a primary car, especially being in an accident in one that was totaled out.

To this day, I can drive over a week without seeing a tc. I rarely see any Xa's and probably most often see the xb's, which isnt too often anyway.

I know in some parts of the country they are very popular, but here in western mass, they arent yet.
