  • Sweet Bang for Buyers of ALL KINDS Bucks - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    The Scion tC comes from the highly reputable Lexus and Toyota Family, which makes it the entry level line for the newer aggressive driving generation that expects butt loads of goodies for as little money as possible. How can you go wrong with Scions new approach of pure pricing and no corners cut with butt loads of standard features. The car is absoultely amazing on the road and screams to be taken to the race track. 15.8 on regular octance is pretty damn sweet for a four banger that comes from the company that makes the cars your parents and grandparents drive. For the quality and reliablity you purchase the tC is hands down the best buy of the Year.

    Very fun car to drive. The power is good. This car is way way way better then my nissan sentra 1992. The space inside the car is HUGE. The inside is well designed. I got a different shift knob and silver pedals and the sub. i plan to get tinted windows and black rims.

    I really love my car. I have purchased a different spoiler because I wanted a larger one that what scion offered. the experience has been way worth the money.

  • Not all that - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    I was expecting a lot from the Scion tC because everyone told me "best bang for your buck" but to me it didnt deliver. You can tell Toyota really cut corners when building this car, and thats why they offer it for so cheap. The interior would constantly rattle to the point I hated driving it. My radio cover would squeak and the hatch would always rattle. The sunroof covers started to sag after 12,000 miles. Gas mileage is pathetic considering Toyota makes 270 hp V6 with the same MPG. After a year and a half of owning I traded it in.

  • Finally a car worth every penny and more - 2005 Scion TC

    I went from a 95 BMW 325IS to this Scion and I have not looked back. The build quality and the value of this car cannot be beaten. Not only is it a blast to drive but the standard features make it in a class of its own. I would tell anyone in the market for a new car to really take a hard look at this car.

  • Awesome Vehicle - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    I have driven many vehiclies in my short time driving. However this is the most fun to drive and has so many amazing features for the price. No hassle at the dealership, and great buying experience. I will be looking into adding the optional super-charger later.

  • unbeatable for the price - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    I was drawn to this car since the first time I saw it. The level of standard features offered is unmatched in the price/class segment. It provides the perfect balance of performance/economical value. Was considering a Mazda 3, but to obtain the same level of features would have had to spend $2000 grand more.

  • MY TC - 2005 Scion TC

    I love this car. It drives like a high performance luxury car. Very affordable. Fuel efficient with plenty of power.

  • SWEET - 2005 Scion TC
    By -

    My husband and I looked at 12 different cars before deciding on 3 for my daughter to choose from. She picked the Scion with no reservations. And we bought it feeling good about her choice. This car has nearly every safety feature a parent could want. It is incredibly easy to drive, daughter just got in and took off. For a first time driver this is a great car. The value and quality for the price was wonderful! We purchased a car with practically every option available and still were well under 25K. Highly recomend car and dealer. Great car, great people.
