  • Love It - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    After I purchased the Scion TC I have had no complaints. Living in North East Pennsylvania my main concern was how it would handle in the snow. I have to say it handles great.

  • bang for the buck - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    I drove over 10 different cars before buying the scion. The power, styling and reliability of this car far outdo its competitors like the rsx, vw 1.8t, tiburon, neon, etc... Not to mention the price, at anywhere from 1K to 6K cheaper it is an awsome sport compact. There is also the TRD performance options that are available. Overall I have to give this car a 10.

  • Great car for the money - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    I drive a ton for work and have always been a fan of the tC for the long drives. The car is a bit noisy (I think it is just the Potenza tires) and does have more squeaks and rattles then I would have hoped for after 50,000 miles, but the drivtrain and looks of the car are worth the money.

    This car is definately the best value on the market. Not only is it affordable, it gives you everything a more expensive car would and more.

  • tC gets lots of looks - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    Well worth the six weeks I waited to get my tC. Parked along a curb on a Saturday night by a club in front of a new Benz SL 500. I saw no less than ten people stop and stare at the tC. They also looked at the logo to try and figure out what it was. Mine is Black with tinted windows and looks great. It swallows all of my music equipment, amps, guitars, keyboards, etc. with the back seats folded down. Drives like it is on rails. LOVE IT.

  • My little hot pocket - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    I waited for this car to come out since January 2004. When it did come out in /04. I was so excited. I bought the car one week while on the market. I waited for 3 weeks to have it shipped in and when I got it, it was more than what I expected. This is the best little sports car I have owned. It has an beauitful exterior and interior, a very peppy motor, shifts great, and overall fun to drive. This car was my first 5 speed ever, but the car was very easy to learn on. My fiance is going to trade in his car this December for the 200hp supercharged version that is supposed to arrive late 2004. For the price this car is perfect!!! I love it.

  • smooth ride - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    overall the vehicle is great. mileage is average. this car needs about another 60 horsepower and road noise needs to be reduced. it has a beautiful, smooth body style. an little more than average interior. it should have more after market style. it is difficult to get any after market accessories. for example air intake; turbo; exterior lights.
