Tc, Scion Options

[urbandork]

Man i c them every where. Every one drives them. They are about as bad as civics. Granted they look way better then n e civic but i feel that the Tc stands for Toyota civic.

agreed and almost did except their lease payment was a little nuts (300/month) compared to the 160/month for my cobalt.

i agree, old ppl are driving them, its spose to be geared towards the younger crowd, wtf happened!

[boosted_K2]

price happened

[Benevolence]

If they were lighter withouth the glass roof and got better mpg I would be drivin one... but yeah I see'm everywhere now with all ages driving them

tC's are badass. My brother has one and my mom is about to buy one too. My mom's the ****. I love the tC. Around here, for the most part, the tC's are driven by real hot chicks with rich parents. thumbs up for that.

Supra and IS300 share the same 2JZ 3.0L engine
Tc, Camry, and Rav4 share the 2AZ 2.4L engine

No, the tC engine is not the same or anywhere near close to the IS300 engine... And yes, it is the 4 cylinder Camry engine. The tC has the 2AZ-FE (2.4L I4), and so does the Camry, Solara, Highlander, and RAV4. 4 cylinder versions, of course. And the 2JZ-GE (3.0L I6) is found in the IS300, GS300, Supra, Crown, Mark II, and Aristo. I'm sure both are in more cars, but those are just some. The engines are VERY different but I can understand the confusion because they almost sound the same. 2AZ, 2JZ... Sound alike but that one letter difference and the fact that the 2JZ has a performance head makes a BIG difference. Lol. Just clearing that up.

[saleeka]

for 17 G they are VERY hard to beat in terms of equippment, performance, and image. I like everything about them, but it dosent drive as sporty as it looks...

[yarik83]

I like how somebody mentioned money. For whatever reason import cars are getting awfully expensive. For example to buy the new fully loaded eclipse with ports package would cost you just under 30K. NOw what the hell is that? A Supra costs that much.. a Supra

I believe if they are making a car geared towards the YOUNG community they need to keep it cheaper. Look at sion... tc is now what.. 15K give or take.. but it is not a sports car.... all it needs is a better engine and a different set of tail lights... I would buy it then.

All I need to know about the tC.

"Speaking of the Lexus IS, the tC is nearly as quick as its 215-hp luxury cousin. The sporty Scion scoots from 0 to 60 in 7.4 seconds and through the quarter-mile in 15.7 seconds at 88 mph, only 0.1 and 0.2 second, respectively, behind the IS." - Car and Driver

Oh and this

"Against its natural rivals, the tC is equally competitive. To 60, it is quicker than the Civic Si (8.0) and the Mini Cooper (8.3). It's even with the Mazda 3 s and just 0.4 slower than the supercharged Cooper S, which is the only one of the group to outgun the tC to the quarter-mile, nipping it by 0.2 second. And remember, the blown Mini starts at $20,449." - Car and Driver
