  • Love it! - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I just bought my 2006 Black Cherry Pearl Scion tC about a week and a half ago. I am getting super great gas mileage on my 66 mile round trip each day to work. I love the interior and exterior. The sunroofs are awesome!

    I really like my new scion tC. Its so much fun to drive compared to so many other cars in its price range. Its the best buy on the market for now. Toyota did a good job with this car.

  • Scion iC is sweet - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I love my Scion Tc. ,m getting ready to do a little bit more to mine to make it stand out but it isnt necessary. It handles great, far better than any other car I have ever driven. Its fun to drive with a lot of torque. Take one for a test drive and you will fall in love.

  • Fun little car... - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    Ive had this car for just over three weeks, I bought it at a Toyota dealer with 7,500 on it. I traded in a 02 Pontiac Grand Am GT in on this car, and do not regret it at all. This car picks up as fast if not faster than my old car(which had 175 HP), gets better gas mileage, and handles better. Ive gotten a lot of compliments on the car already-and have taken it on a road trip (the seats were very comfortable for a longer drive). I wanted a car that I would be able to keep for at least 3 years without getting sick of it-I think that I made a great choice.

    I researched several cars prior to getting a 2006 Scion tC. I test drove a 2006 Mustang and found the seats to still be uncomfortable, although an improvement over my 1997 model. I also test drove a 2006 Acura RSX and found that the tC handled better, is quieter, more comfortable to sit in, and cost several thousand less than a comparably equipped model. My only reservation about buying a tC was the age group Toyota targeted - Im old enough to be their father! I bought the tC anyway. Its the Special Edition 2, and it turns heads. The only thing I added is tinted windows. Its fun to drive, hugs the road, handles better on wet roads than my old Mustang did, and I have fewer stops at the gas station.

  • Surprising - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    I love my tC. Its the first car I bought for myself (my dad bought me a Wrangler and an F150 before that). I wanted a car with good gas mileage without looking like a Geo. The tC gives me around 24-28 mpg which is above average, but not the best. What catches you off guard with the tC is the speed. This car likes to go fast, but its engine isnt abnoxiously loud when you hit speeds in excess of 100 mph. Its 0-60 isnt anything to brag about, but Toyota makes a supercharger for the tC if you want to tweak the engine.

    I love this car. I belong to Scikotics your friendly neighborhood Scion club and we all enjoy Scion. I recommend this car for all ages. Many love it for the speed and at all costs try to go faster. I myself am interested in exterior customization and perfection!

  • B-E-A-Utiful Car - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    Ive had my tC for a little over a year, now, and Im still in love with it. I first saw the tC in a commercial and Ive loved it from the very beginning. It has an amazing exterior look and awesome customization features for the exterior and interior. I customized my tC with exactly what I wanted in a car (flint mica color, spoiler, fog lights, all- weather floor mats, interior LED lights, cargo net), not to mention the already standard features (sun/moonroof, great sound system, etc). It drives/handles perfectly and I could not ask for more in a car. I would recommend this car for anyone! Its fun to drive and I give it two thumbs way up!

  • Good Car in the $16,000 - $22,000 Market - 2006 Scion TC
    By -

    The Pros: 1. A great engine, 2.4L with 160hp. It has amazing pickup and good speed. 2. Tons of standard options and a great roof. 3. A great price on a vehicle that doesnt depreciate quickly. 4. Good enough fuel economy for a fast car. Cons: 1. The cars wheels spin during initial start, a better differential is needed. This same issue creates an uncomfortable driving experience in turns and in the rain. 2. There is some noise in the hatchback 3. I wish the steering audio controls were better 4. I am 6 feet 2 inches tall. I wish the seats head rest was better. 5. I really wanted to get a yellow or red color but the best sporty one that I have seen is the white.
