    This vehicle is awesome! The look, the drive, the feel- everything is great. The design is nearly flawless and I have had absolutely NO problems with it. I would definately recommend this car!

    Best overall fun car to drive! Didnt like the revvy,low torque engine of Toyota Matrix XR, XRS, but it had great cargo space & was comfortable. Mazda 3s sedan and Hatch lost acceleration feeling after a certain RPM compared to tc, & Mazda has poor resale value w/ questionable engine quality. So, I purchased the tc. Love the "oomph", smooth acceleration sensation matching a V6 engine. Great ride & handling, nice looks!

  • Awsome car for the price. - 2005 Scion TC

    I have now had my tC for about a month and I love everything about it. I am beyond happy with my purchase. The car is nice to look at, quality is excellent, and it is comfortable. Recently took a 2000 miles roadtrip and I was happy with the comfort, and I am tall at 64" and have no issues. Performance is excellent with this car, it is quick, handles well, and has a nice ride. It could stand to be lowered, and that will be one of the first things I do. Feature wise, it is awsome, it has everything I could want, and I love the roof, I have it open all the time almost. As for accessories, I got none, their all too expensive, I mean come on $700 for a XM sat tuner?

    Spent 5 months looking for a car. Wanted a sporty car under $25,000. Narrowed down to Mazda 3, RSX, and the tC. Not only was the tC the least expensive but it has great power, good looks, and a very nice stock stereo system. The glass roof if pretty awesome also. No haggle pricing also made it nice to deal with the dealer.

    This car has exceeded my expectations in every way. Performance, mileage, quality and fun-to-drive. Still believe, that all things considered, there is not a vehicle in this class that can beat the tCs value. Took some getting used to living in a coupe again, but was ready for a change of pace and have no regrets. Considering my utter satisfaction with the tC, the badge on the grill might as well say "Lexus".

    As quick as it looks and comfortable too, thats the 06 tC. With a smooth shifting 5 speed and that 2.4 liter 4, it gets up and goes. If you dont mind the inevitable question "what kind of car is that"? or "Is that the new BMW"? you wont mind driving the tC.

  • GREAT LITTLE CAR - 2005 Scion TC

    I have had my tc for 9 months now and it is probably the best car I have ever owned when it comes to quality and driving fun. Ive read alot of people on here talking smack about how crappy these cars are but there is nothing wrong with them. I believe most of the negative comments are from those who just watched the fast and furious movie and expect their cars to fly or whatever other kind of stupid crap they see in the movie. WELL IT WONT!

  • Great value but needs some tweaking - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    Was having my 1985 toyota corolla SR5 serviced at 180k and saw the silver tc. Love at first sight. Purchased immediately with all the bells and whistles. A beautiful little jewel, quick as mercury and has got the look. People are still trying to figure out what make/model it is. Had passerbys ask if it was European. Ha! Its a Toyota, baby...eat my dust.

  • Best Value and Fun for Money - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    After reading information, I bought the car without even driving it. According to the dealer, I bought the first 5- Speed in Broward County. I flat out love my car. Sometimes Ill just walk around the car and admire its looks. The interior is equally as impressive as the exterior. Lexus build quality at a reasonable price. When I drive the car, I feel like a million bucks.
