Scion TC owners bitter? - Page 18 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Everyone i've encountered in a tC has either given me a thumbs up or they'll come up to me and ask me about the car. Haven't had any negative comments.

I find that FR-S owners' heads are full of hot air than anything. I guess they think they are some sort of street legend/god now. I truly do not know. All you have to do is read some of the comments throughout this forum and you will see them. Just my $.02.

there are a-holes driving all kinds of cars. can't say i've noticed it more with just other tC owners or not and i definitely notice other tCs on the road.
I know the few FR-S i have seen just make me smile and if i can get my phone quick enough i want to take a picture.

I also didn't like the way the xD drove, but the instant you change the wheels to 17x7 or 18s, the drive is like night and day. I dunno what brain fart happened, the xA and xB1 didn't drive like it, scion even changed the suspension for '11, i dunno if it helped though.
i have the old 17x7 tC1 stock wheels and TRD springs on my xD, its not bad.

Mine was $25k...

Mine was msrp 24,930

Crzbiohazard · 01-13-2013, 02:17 AM

Lmfao I just find it funny how some tc drivers try to act all badass trying to race a 99 civic si's or integra's that can cost 6-7 grand while they paid 17k for a 160 HP piece of crap xD reminds me of back when I was a kid and everyone rode bikes, I shoved a stick in the front wheel of this douchebag's bike Bcuz h tried so hard to act like he was faster and no one could beat him in a race

I took another look. It's boxy.

frs is the only scion that doesnt look like a giant box w/ wheels.

stanm · 01-13-2013, 08:10 AM

I was interested in getting a tC but that football helmet design or whatever they call it for the roofline looks really stupid. Thank goodness FRS came out a year later

Boxy?

travace · 01-13-2013, 08:45 AM

why is it i find that the prius's are the ones always trying to race me.

fastest cars i see in sothern california in general are...

1. Police vehicles. dont care what kind of emergency i have never seen a cop going with the flow of traffic.
2. Prius's. always in the left lane and doing 80+ if you are going faster they will speed up so you cant get in then slow down.
3. mini vans. if you come up to a light that has cars in each lane ALWAYS pick the minivan. i dont care if its next to a corvette that minivan will beat everyone off that line everytime :P
