your thoughts on a Scion tC?

[flynushi]

Hey guys my younger brother is looking to get a tc or a civic, what are your thoughts on those two cars? I've never driven either so I don't know what to tell him. Just want some suggestions or thoughts. Thanks

The tC is a bloated lethargic pile of scrap.

they're both slow as piss :gap:

[Gas-n-Grease]

^ but the Civic handles better and more fun to drive.

[flynushi]

how's it compared to a gt then? I might just give him mine and get a gts.

The Tc head can handle boost really well. Then again civics are notorious for high cheap hp numbers.

It all depends on what he wants.

Civic is a 1.8L
TC is a 2.2L

Apples to oranges. Test drive both and see what he likes more.

Civic up to 2005 < Scion tC < 2006+ Civic
Civic is ultimate ricer car while tC is ultimate chick car (that was a joke).

Test drive them both and see which one you like better.

[GSBoek]

TC is a 2.4LYes.


If it's a current generation Civic I'd take it over a tC.

If his planning on getting a civic, might as well get the new Si. Other than that, I'd go with the TC.

the si is nice, though i dont like either of them that much. one thing i can say for the new model civic is that its safe. my best friend and 4 other friends rolled a coupe and all of them walked away.

[nikmoretto]

what are you talking about the new civics are 2.0L...K20 is the engine.....

[marc]

depends on the Civic

the SI will blow the tC out of the water.

[roaf85]

The residual on a Civic is better for the following reasons:

1. Lower insurance rates vs tC (unless you are getting the Si)
2. Better Fuel Economy (unless you are getting the Si)
3. Better quality.

TC is a 2.2L

Don't forget the 2az-FE is an economy head and will flow like sh!t.

[mad.mdx]

to sum it all up. if its not an si, then get neither of them and give him your gt :P

[flynushi]

haha ok thanks guys

[terrj]

Give him your GT and get a RWD car !

[celica651]

Give him yours and GET a GTS. :gap:

I'd rock a white tC, I think they look really nice

My brother just picked up a 2007 tC in white on Monday. It's the only color I'd buy one in. It's a nice little car...

[Dasher17]

It's a celica that gets worse gas mileage. I would take a gt over one ANYDAY.

[Joeggernaut]

TC = Toyota Civic

[ProjectCelica01]

i choose a tc over a civic a gt over a civic a gts over all of them. i would go with tc. im not a honda fan =D besides, its different. i walk outside and here a fart can right away.
