i know the tc is the best scion out there so far, well thats subjective, but why does everyone say WOW ITS SO GREAT WITH THE SUPERCHARGER, do you guys know it uses the camry engine, and the camry can also have a supercharger, so that makes the camry "GREAT" right? welll wtf, i think thats stupid, and everyone that says "wow lets turbo this thing" why dont u turbocharge a camry? SAME THING better yet you get 2 extra doors, and even more refinement, if you go to jd power and associates website, you'll see that out of the 3 companies toyota owns, lexus is on top, then toyota, then scion, why? because they put crappy workmanship into the scions, i mean you get what you pay for, also to let you guys know, toyota will soon have the lexus brand in japan, seriously.. research on their website and you'll find out

looks are subjective, the car may look ugly to you, but to someone else it can be a work of art

Re: Scions - Ugly?

love Scions...plan on getting an xB for myself....

the tC is really nice...i wouldn't opt for the supercharger...i'd turbo it...but they are nice car for the money

tC starts out around $16k
xB and xA start out around $13k

all of them have some nice options...like 19" rims for ex....they're real quality budget cars...makse sense to me...i love them

If you guys havent driven one you have no reason to say all of this

I think the car is appealing and have a friend who has one and the amount of extras on his car are unbelievable... you should look at one and test drive it before giving it the kick to the curb. good luck to all of you and god bless. All of you with a Scion bless you.

Well, most of you people are only taking opinions based on first views. Scions happen to actually be very good cars, and I personally think they're cool. I don't particularly like the xA and xB but I do like the tC. You have to admit it is a nice looking car. What turns me on, is that it's a good, reliable and nicer Toyota for a good price, and the levels of customization you can do right at the spot of purchase.

THe only thing I don't like is the rear end, I think it needs to be a bit longer.

This is just to let you know, if you own a Scion, I believe they void your warranty if you add any aftermarket modifications because they already have enough customization options there for you.

The xA and xB are pretty damn ugly cars. I've seen a couple xB's on the street so the must be becoming popular, no xA's yet though...

The tC on the other hand is probably the best car in its class. $16,000 for similar numbers to the more expensive Civic Si, RSX (not S), Saturn Ion Redline, and Cooper S. The factory supercharger that puts is up to around 200 bhp puts it about even price with its competitors. IMO, the tC is by far the best car in this class. The xB and xA are just plain wierd and ugly, but the tC is actually a good car.

Re: Scions - Ugly?

I dont think the Scion's are ugly. The Xb looks better, but im a preformance guy, and withough mods, a scion Xa or Xb doesnt really do it for me. The new Tc is a good looking car, and it has some pizaz to back it up.

Re: Scions - Ugly?

People just like to say it's ugly, but without saying how they are ugly, why is it ugly. They don't even bother to compare them with something else...

Ignorance...

Re: Scions - Ugly?

the xb an the xa both use the echo subframe and motor which is the bottom line toyota(108 hp) so they are both shit on the inside no matter what you do to the outside. If you have a 62' bug and put a lambo frame on it, it does not make the car any good, just a fast looking pile of crap. Oh and i already own a toaster why the hell would i want to drive one. The tc is a camary base with 160 hp and plenty of mods to start with so it would be a tempting car for its price and the panoramic sunroof is cool. my civic would still beat it ha ha ha.
