Poor Replacement for the Celica

I went to the dealership ready to trade in my '92 Celica (one of the greatest toyotas ever made). The Celica I thought had made me a Toyota driver for life. I just couldn't do it. I saw the tC and sat in it and I loved it. Then I drove it. It was not teribly powerful, kind of peppy but not very and it handeled like I'd expect a large sedan not a small coupe. It weighs at least 500 lbs. more than it should with most of the weight up front. This car plows like no other car I've driven (plowing is not a good thing).
Mixed feelings on my tC

I purchased my Scion tC to replace my 98 Nissan 200sx-ser which was a fabulous car. I love the exterior styling, handling, comfort, and overall feel of the car. My biggest dissapointment is in the build quality. I've owned many Japanese cars over the years from Honda, Mazda, and Nissan without any problems; this is my first new Toyota purchase and I fully expected legendary Toyota quality on this car. I haven't gotten it. The paint is very delicate, scratching very easily. Interior quality is fair at best, my driver's seat is showing a lot of wear, and the interior panels get scratched very easily. I'm not rough on cars at all and this one is holding up badly at only 18 months old.

the 2006 Scion tC has excellent handling, performance, and styling. I hadn't driven a stick shift for more than 25 years...so I was a little apprehensive about not getting the automatic. I am glad I did now...it is very quick and smooth now that I am back in the groove. I love the tried and true 4-cyl. engine. I have no mechanical complaints so far. I am getting 25.5 MPG with 90% city driving.
Love It

I love my Scion tC. I would definitely buy one again. It is the most fun that you can get for your money. No car is more fun driving around town. Its low end torque is amazing. The tires want to chirp. The stereo wants to blast. This car is a blast, and it's comfortable. It is great on the highway, too.
Lovin' it at age 40

Who says this is for the young generation? I'm having fun driving this thing. I'm usually the SUV type a guy but ever since the gas price started going up, I will be driving this baby spring thru fall! I feel like I'm driving in a sports car. I get an avg of 25 mpg in mixed highway / city driving. Although, once broken in...it will be better on gas. I think this car will bring out the midlife crisis in me. I'm already thinking of modifying it...uh oh! This car has a lot of torque. It will take time getting use to the 1st gear. It has a lot of wheel spin, but definitely stick with the manual tranny.
