  • Youll Love It!!! - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I traded in my 03 Hyundai Tiburon for a black tC and I couldnt be happier. I drive a lot of different late model cars and pickups at my job, but this tC is the perfect balance in my eyes of performance (160 horses is plenty if youre not planning on racing anybody), looks (I get plenty of double-takes at stoplights), and most importantly, VALUE. The features that come for the $18,000 or so you pay are EXCEPTIONAL.

  • Good little car - 2006 Scion TC

    I have had this car now for about 8 months, and it was a change going from a Camry to the tC. The car has good take off, and I have had no problem with the handling. It is a fun little car to drive.

  • Would be a perfect car for a teenager - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I bought my 2006 tc brand new. At first I loved it because of all the options. You really cant get as many for the price. The dual sunroof was really neat, steering wheel controls were nice. Good price and good deal, but too much plastic everywhere. Car is very cookie cutter. The weird cover over the radio always seemed annoying. I got plenty of looks and comments, but all from 16 year old kids when getting my car washed. Had to get rid of it and get an "adult" car. Nice, quick, but VERY TINY little car. Dont expect anyone to get in the back seat. Perfect for a teen, which is what Scion targets anyway...my bad...

  • Worth More Than It Costs - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I had a 95 Chevy Camaro that had become very problematic and so I purchased a tC to replace it. The tC had the sporty look I wanted without a high price. The car rides very well and accelerates quickly. It was also nice to be able to customize it to make it personal and also to ensure that the additions would fit properly. The car blocks out a lot of outside noise. When I pull into my garage the sound of my dogs barking are now only a muffle. To top it off, Scion cars have been noted to be very reliable so its great to know that this car can get me around safely. I definitely recommend this car to anyone who wants a lot of features and reliability without having to pay a fortune.

  • Dream Machine - 2006 Scion TC

    Absolute dream to drive. Interior is roomy, comfortable. No road noise. handles on the road like a charm. Sporty, yet practical. Would recommend it to anyone who likes a comfortable yet exciting ride. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

  • More for the Money - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    Like the title says, the Scion tC offers a lot for the money. I have owned my car for about a year and a half now and I couldnt ask for more. The Scion community is amazing and the products and support they offer as upgrades are top of the line. The ease and ability to customize the tC has to be my favorite selling point. I have since added an xB to the family as well as quite a few modifications. Please take the time to test drive this model, you wont regret it.

  • Drove It And Gifted It - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    June 22, 2008 Let me preface my remarks by clearly indicating that I am very high on Toyota and at my age cannot remember how many Corollas and Camrys I have owned and enjoyed as being totally reliable and satisfying in every aspect of design and and engineering. The chronicle of events with my Scion purchase I think was unique to say the least. I really only had one solitary reason for giving it away after about 1 year of driving it and I am suggesting that the logic was personal and not applicable to all Scion drivers I never sat in the car before purchase. I am a man who is 190 lbs and wears a 44 Suit. Nobody has ever suggested a need for weight loss.That means I need a lot of room. jayadler1

  • LOVIN IT !!!!!!! - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    Love my car so much! Really easy and fun to drive! My friends were all like "Why dont get a truck?" When I told them I was getting a scion, but now they think my car is hot!I think so too. I get people asking questions about the car all the time,and people wanting to drive it. Pictures dont do the car justice, it is really cute and sporty. I got the rear pedestal spoiler and it really nails the look!

  • My Baby! - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    Before I got my 2006 Scion tC i drove a 96 Cavalier! What a huge difference difference! I love how smooth it drives and its so quiet! It is my first new car, and my first purchase. Im only 18, and Im nervous about the payments for the next 6 years - but I know Toyotas warranty will take care of me!
