answer: way...way... way too damn much.

Probably at least a Corvette's worth. Think about the mods you could do on a tC with that much money.

Anyone who knows anything about cars can't hate the tC. It's impossible. You might not like the way it looks... fine. But in my opinion, whoever got the xA based upon looks is a mental case. And the xB is an acquired taste for sure. So in terms of looks... I can relate to anyone who doesn't like the tC. But if they hate the "car" itself, they are just jealous or hating or mad or something. I've never seen a non-scion owner bash the tC. 99.9 percent of the people who do are xA or xB owners... makes you go hmmmm....


I love how tC owners love to talk "smack."



Both Cybergypsy and I own xAs. We were willing to trade in our xAs for tCs. But after checking them out, we found it wasn't worth it. I'd probably still get excited to see the tC on the road, but I wouldn't buy one...
Ditto miko....not in my dreams....

Didn't I read somewhere that "T.C." stood for "Too Conservative"? Or, maybe it was "Awe, I coulda had TWO xB's"..

Just kiddin. The xB folk pick on the xA folk, the xA folk.. well they got noone to pick on, do they?

So I don't understand why everyone that doesn't own a TC gets in here and "talks smack" about it. Is it an ego thing? In my experience in the forums I have been in specific to something, only the people that are interested in that thing read and post. Maybe the people getting on here to bit#@ and complain about the TC should waste there time in their own forum.

All the Scion cars are great in their own right. Personally I love the tC for its sporty look. But I have test driven the other two and thought they were pretty cool. The xB was much better than I thought though both could use a little "supercharger". To me, the xB is a little SUV w/o the 4 wheel drive. The roominess is unbelievable. But I wanted something sporty, good price, and good looking and the tC met all the criteria. Have had it for over a week and still loving it......

PS. Most people still don't know what Scion is or even how to pronounce it. So let's keep them in the dark and ride our Scions with a great big smile

Well, that is cool and all but what I find annoying is the amount of negativity brought when comments are made. Constructive criticism is one thing but half the time I see a comment from Cyber, it is usually on the level like "oh man, the car isn't worth it" or "[insert_car] is would be a much better purchase then the tC". It is like you are ignoring all the merits of the car because it just wasn't your style...

I wouldn't buy the xA or xB...the styling is a little too extroverted for my liking but fun at the same time and the performance from both is just too low. However, I still would call them good cars and I wouldn't troll their forums looking to denigrate the cars every time I see a thread about a small problem...I think that all the regulars on this forum would just like the same consideration.

Ever since Cybergypsy was asked to stop with her comments (over a week ago), the moderators haven't really noticed any questionable activity... Seems like you guys are still bent about it...

I did notice that the comments weren't coming as badly as they were before but I just had to get that out of my system. Sorry if I am being redudant, I had no idea that moderators had already handled the situation...and yes, I am still a little bent about some of the comments made :oops: .

HOLY CRAP, somebody get this man a genious trophy. I woulda never thought people like cars. You'd think Toyota woulda known that back in the 30s when they started the company.

JESUS CHRIST, now that Toyota has just realised this, they might take control of the car market...the one people like.
hmmm... i've always thought the xa and xb were cars... i guess not. i guess the xa and xb is just an egg and a box....

That is the most retarded statement i've ever heard. However, with your ability to spell and form sentences, retardation is not completely out of the question. How can you compare one car model, to an entire line of cars? Also, a tC is nothing like any Lexus, therefore you can't compare the two. The IS300 is nice, I was going to get one before I decided on the tC instead. However, they are two entirely different cars.

See, this is a typical tC owner comment.

I, too, say that the tC is like a poor man's Lexus. The tC _was_ designed by a Lexus designer. When I took it for a test drive, it felt like a skimped out Lexus. I'll have to look at it again, though.
