a guy in the Houston area got one with a blown motor for $5k.
a 93 also in Houston with 90k miles just sold $13k
one of my customer's son got one that was just traded in at CarMax with 100k miles for $11k.
a few years back when i was looking into one (91-94 around 80k-100k) they were going for $14k-$22k.

but thanks for sharing

A few years ago sure, they are on their way up in price. That fact has been reported countless times

I think once the 86 program ends, Toyota might bring back the RWD/4WD Celica. Their 3 sports car family should be Celica/Supra/MR2 imo and the hybrid sports car is the next phase for this decade.

Recently Toyota sports car have about a 8-10 year or so life cycle.

Currently what is being reported is Toyota and BMW are working on a new modular platform that will underpin all future sports car for both companies.

of course low miles and garage kept NSX will have a higher value; this goes for any car.

I'm not buying this for a long list of reasons. Primarily if they drop down to one model for 2nd gen, its going to be sold as a Toyota and that means bye bye Scion. Also the BMW-Toyota rumor is geared toward BMW helping Toyota a high-performance sports car which, I would gather, would be some where in the Nissan GT-R category (read Supra). In return Toyota would be helping BMW in hybrid tech.

why couldn't it continue being sold as a Scion in North America?

Might be selfish, but sounds good to me.

I have mine already, and it would make it feel that much more special.

One of the few cars I've seen get discontinued after four years (99-2002) was the second gen G20. So it's not unheard of to have a life cycle less than 5 years.

I see a lot of people over at TTAC wanting to see the Scion brand die off and go back to being Toyota badged.

Can we just start deleting these threads and give probation or something to the idiots that post them?

Davey · 06-23-2014, 06:41 PM

I heard they're going to bring it back as an uglier 4-door with AWD and a turbo.

srizzors25 · 06-23-2014, 07:01 PM

No thats the WRX, but they've already done that twice

i just think Scion needs to go back to its root if you.

the xB and tC have gotten ugly and pricier.

the FRS could be sold as a Toyota. i dont really mind either way.
