I have to just laugh at your posts, because you really think you car is hot shit, don't you? low 15 second 1/4 mile. lmao. The difference between you and me, is at least I know my car is slow. And I hate putting down gsr's, becuase they are alright cars and I knew a few kids who had them(until they graduated to s2k's, mustangs, ect) and they were cool. They can also be fast when modded. I know if I keep defending my comment, some nice people who own integras will get mad, and I don't want to offend them. I just want them to know I mean no harm and this will be my last post on this topic. I'll let the gsr stunna get the last word. Someone upstairs will pay him back one day with wrong mid sized family sedan driven by a grumpy old guy who feels like racing an integra. |

I kinda like the scion and the 160 hp it makes i'm thinking is naturally aspirated. Anything toyota makes is usually pretty good but they are surely lagging behind in new sport models. Nissan came back with the 350z and mitsubishi and subaru brung back the wrx and evo. I WANT MY SUPRA BACK. |

Re: Funny Scion XB Vs GSR
The tC is a nice looking car, the xB is an icecream truck gone stupid, and the xA is for my lil sister.
IF I ever to ever drive a box, this new prototype scion is actually very cool (to the degree a scion can actually be called cool, that is): http://www.discountpartcenter.com/ph...2B-concept.jpg http://www.discountpartcenter.com/ph...2B-concept.jpg |

theyre a pretty stupid attempt to cash in on the whole "im a street racer" thing. I hate it when maufacturers try to make shit seem good or whatever, whats even worse..75% of the kids that get these scions beleive that shit.

Frankly, I'd take the tC over the Si considering the quality of the interior and the 3k price advantage. And to toss another in the pile, 160 horses comes n/a. I think it's actually quite nice that you can get a dealer installed turbo and not have to void your warrantee.. |

How many kids can afford to buy a brand new Scion? Not many if theyre brought up right and taught to earn their money. This is why a lot of kids have Civics , and unfortunately some just dont have the proper mindset of tuning to use or treat their car correctly. Its really too bad that Civics and Honda in general has gotten this bad name just because their cars sell. I love my Civic. It drives well, sure its got no power, but thats probably a good thing for me right now. I personally feel that it is a good looking car, and I needed a car that was easy to work on so I could learn the basics of maintaining a car. When its time to step up, I'll do it.

The "ricer" parts for the Scion are made by by Toyota - that means Toyota meant for the Scion to be rice. There is no public demand for Toyota Scion parts (except for the "demand" created by Toyota advertising execs). IMO the Scion is not designed to be anything but a marketing gimmick. So I disagree with "Getting a tC would probably make you look less like a ricer than getting a Honda, unfortunately." It's more like "Getting a TC would probably make you look more like a sucker than getting a Honda". |

I hope everyone can stop arguing so much, please everyone tell fact, not hating opionions. and saying no offense usually makes people think you are offending them. but untill I see some change in people over here on Automotive forums, I'm going to be over at JDMuniverse.com having educated conversations (there is my segment of hating)

Re: Funny Scion XB Vs GSR
sorry for the comment, my day wasn't the greatest and seeing people argue just brought everything back up. As for JDMU, it's a good site, and I just havn't witnessed much fighting that didn't have facts to back it. I know I can't make myself seem helpful, because I am barly around my house to get anything on the computer done. sorry for keeping up the old thread

i think the civics si's will keep up with the tc just depending on the driver. the new "06 si" which will be in my driveway in a few short months, will blow it away. o-60 time on the 06 si's is 6.8 sec which is not bad at all for a car to have 197hp and 139 lbs of torque. |
