2011 Scion tC

[obstacle]

Anyone seen the recent pics of the new 2011 scion tC?? i saw an ad for it by my local highway and seemed like it was gunna be a hot car...

after browsing through some full shot pics...now, i might have to retract my initial feelings.









pros..
1 edit: it comes as a 6-speed MT (not V6 as i stated previously)
2 wheels are a good update

cons...
1 looks too hatchback-ish
2 still lags around that rear antenna
3 rear lights...ehhh
4 hood is still booooring
5 grill is decent, but ehhh
6 again looks too boxy

as a former would-be scion buyer, i am disappointed.

Down with Fulham! Go Man Utd!!

And yes, it's fugly.Everything after the door is...blech.

[Otto.]

The front is very nice. Everything after the A-pillar is strange looking.

[Jesda]

Looks like an early 2000s Elantra. Blahhhhh.

[alms24sebring]

its absolutely gross. I'm ganna say that I think the 1st gen TC's actually look good, but I still wouldnt buy one. Thats one car I do not wanna see on the road

[dusred]

Looks like they had a machine mis-function and not cut out the back doors.

[mmkeller]

you're kidding, yuuuck, yes I said yuck. I bet you would see better lines at an Omish strip club.

[MellowZ32]

I'd buy one if it looked more like the Fuse.

[Dittoz7]

Looks a bit more grown up. But most grown up are boring so u guess it fits. Hopefully they keep them rwd so we can still drift them.

<_<

[poems2beats]

The rear end its ugly but the rest of the car is ok I guess... I wouldn't buy one.

[dasoupdude]

Reminds me of a forte koup..


That being said, i kind of like it.

pros..
1 it comes with V6 now!

no?

[AZ89two4Tsx]

The Forte looks 100000000x better. It's a great looking car for the class/price.

I agree the front end of that Scion looks great, but past the doors, it looks like it's has a birth defect a.k.a. Chrysler Sebring syndrome.

you mean manUre? the only player i admire is valencia, for obvious cultural reasons. chelsea might take it all again this season...watch out for them

pros..
1 it comes with V6 now!

no?

i stand corrected...i meant 6-speed, as opposed to their previous generation's 5-speed.

other features include:
2.5L 180 hp
premiered at NY auto show...anyone see it there? i couldnt go this year
18" wheels...interesting
optional led driving lights
optional all weather mats

<---would rather buy a Civic Si.

wait, I did!

[Dattebayo]

And yet, the OP drives an Altima. Hmm.

oh the irony!

[driverdriver]

I see a bit of first generation Tiburon in the profile.

are you implying my taste in my car selection is subpar? or that a tC is of equal caliber to that of an altima? hey, its my money i spent, not yours...

[AppleBonker]

Don't worry about it. The Altima Coupe gets a lot of crap in gen chat. Just bedazzle it and play along!

[s0m3th1ngAZ]

It doesn't help that it has THE cheapest interior I've ever been in. Brand new car and it rattled like a b****.

[Mr1der]

you're spoiled by Mazda.

The new Toyotas suck a** too.....my friend's Camry has s*** falling apart that shouldn't be on a 2005 car.

The only things that have fallen off my Civic were a result of something hitting it.

so i've noticed. In lieu of a more verbose manuscript, i'll be happy to play along.

[Mr1der]

get crackin'

[Bmore-coupe]

Vajazzling?

[Mr1der]

something tells me I'd mangle my pen15 if I slipped....

<_<

Sarcasm? The first one was decidedly FWD. And way overweight.

Most of the tC's I've seen on the road have had overweight female drivers. I think this will sell to them.

[krimsonviper]

Makes my 3 look beautiful!

[IBCoupe]

If they had spent as much money into squeezing a V6 in there as they did into redesigning the exterior, I'd be tempted.

[Bubba1]

Yeah, her saying the word "gesundheit", could be painful ...

As far as the new Scions tyling: eh. okay. Not repulsive, not bad. Then again, who's expecting Pininfarina styling on an $17K econobox?
