  • Solid tC - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    The 2006 Scion tC comes with great standard features and is fun to drive. Ive had mine for just over four months and I cant imagine having bought any other car. I couldnt be more satisfied with my decision.

  • Love It - 2006 Scion TC

    The Scion tC is by far the best car Ive owned. If you havent seen one, go check it out. Every corner is a neat feature you rarely find in other hatchbacks. Plus it is really roomy!

    Seeking an affordable, sleek, enjoyable and smooth ride? Look to the Scion tC as one of your "must see" cars. This car has been, so far, a great purchase. It has great pick-up and handles well in rough weather and on different road surfaces.

  • 10,000 Miles, 6 Month Review - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I just hit 10,000 miles after six months of driving everyday. The tC is a great car, fun to drive, averaging 27-28 miles per gallon, or 350 miles per tank. Did I mention that it is fun to drive? It offers more room than most two door sport cars. My biggest complaint is that it rattles. First the radio (dealer fixed it) now behind my head in the head liner area. It is going to the shop this week. The iPod radio is great. I have no regrets.

  • Supercharged - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    3 and half years and 41,000 miles later the car still runs like the day I drove it off the lot. Since I just recently paid it off, I decided to buy and install the TRD Supercharger to renew my overall interest in the car. This upgrade brings my performance rating from a 7.0 to a 9.5 (rounded to 10). The charger is smooth and quiet and makes 2nd through 5th gear a blast. The manual gearbox is fun once you become acquainted with the clutch. The car just looks gorgeous with ground effects and spoiler. I loved my tC before the forced induction but now were on a whole new level.

  • Years of Homework Pay Off - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    When looking for a new car, I had a little list of things that I was looking for 1) Looks 2) Reliability 3) Good gas mileage 4) Fun to drive. The car that always seemed to stand out was the Scion tC. What put the tC over the top for me was the Release Series 2.0. The color is awesome and the alcantara seats are just as great. Mechanically, the car is solid. Its definitely not a sports car, but drives extremely smoothly and quiet. Its handling is OK, but accurate. There is a lot more room on the inside than it looks. The back seats have tons of leg and hip room, but the head room is a little lacking. This is a great daily driver that gives you what you need and some stuff you want without costing a ton. If you see many tCs on the road, its for a reason.

  • Best Small Car Bargain - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    This car has shined and l dont mean just the paint. This is the best car l have owned since and l have owned 2 American cars and trucks, a German car, and an Audi A4. It reminds me a lot of that car but for thousands of dollars less.

  • My Scion - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    It is different. I like the size, its not too small, just right. I love the panoramic sunroof. It gets attention everywhere I go. Fixing it up is lots of fun. The radio is cool too.

  • I Love my Scion - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I wouldve easily paid A LOT more. I am still amazed they are priced so low ...and the extras that are included ...wow! I traded in a 3 year old $50,000+ vehicle for the scion and dont regret it.

  • I love my Scion! - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I just got my 06 Scion tC a few days ago. Ive wanted this car for over a year, and because of my stupidity I bought an 06 Mazda3 not really wanting to buy it. Lets just say I felt extremely pressured...but oh well that is in the past! I am extremely happy with my tC and I absolutly love it! Now my boyfriend wants one too! Ive made him jelous! This car is awesome to drive and you get soo much car for your money! I love it!
