tarts or not, a Scion tC w/a super charger is a pretty cool car.

It also comes w/an iPod hook up built in from the factory.

i havent really looked into those cars, but my brother works at a Toyota dealership which owns a scion and subaru dealership... and he told me that the xA and xB have something close to 100 hp... the guy in the commercial is naming all these turbo related items in his car, would it even be worth buying all that for that car? i think i need to go read up on those cars and what people are doing to them...

The Scions are actually great little cars for the money; also, all the things they talk about in the commercials are FACTORY options (except a turbo); you can customize the hell out of them right at the dealership. I drove one a while back, and while it was definitely slow, it handled well, had the Toyota attention to detail and was well laid-out inside.

I drove the Scion Tc. I wouldn't be caught dead in the other two.

Yes, those commercials do make Scion owners look like dorks.

my boss asked me about them a while ago and i think i put it very well when i told him.
"its the car you buy your 16 year old if they have an intrest in imports. Its the safe reliable chap car with lots of aftermarket parts that they can have fun with."
as far as the tc i know alot of engineers who drive them just because they are looking for a cheap good looking car that wont cost them an arm and a leg.

The tC is a different story. It comes w/160hp and 163lb ft torque.

With the super charger (dealer addon) its around 200hp
