Hmmm

So Im tired of the Civic. It annoys me everyday. Slow as crap. P.O.S. Im thinking of a Scion. tC or xB or a Toyota Corolla XRS....which one you guys think?

Are there any sites for these cars? Kinda like a 7thgen but for Scions and Corollas? Thanks.

Get the tc It's tunerfriendly, and has that nice "european bland" styling.
As for the corolla, I wouldn't get a sedan unless I suddenly had the need to occupy the back seats with passengers (ie - work commuting, children, etc)


On a side note, you should be annoyed at yourself for choosing your car; don't take it out on the car. It's like beating up your dog for taking a crap in the house, when you're the one who doesn't walk it.

the tC light? no way, that thing is heavy! 2905 lbs.

you're tired of your slow civic, but you'd consider getting an xB?

out of those car choices i'd stay with the civic.

yeh kinda ironic that you are bitching about how slow your car is but you consider xB as one of your choices? wtf?

speedwise:
xrs(170)>tc(160)>xB(slow) LOL.

Don't ever get a Corolla, people hate Corollas even more than Civics.

I agree, the tC is just a slighty faster Civic, you need to move up a class where cars are actually called a sports coupe/sedan.

So I drove a tC and saw it had good pick up but not as much as I wanted.

Drove a Corolla XRS and WOW! Lots of power and lots of room. I traded in the Civic and got me a Black 2005 XRS. The carseat is A LOT easier now with 4 doors, and who woulda thought that my insurace would have gone down so much. I used to pay 2205 for 6 months, it went down to 1449 for 6 months. Just awesome. I love it. Im happy with it and I....I just didnt even look at my Civic when I was leaving the dealer.

off topic, but there is a theme park called silverwood about 45 miles from where i live, and every july they have 'toyota tuesday', where toyota drivers get in for free (40 dollar value). anyways, last year i drove one of my parents toyotas up there (they have 3), and they had a bunch of salesman there demoing cars, and the xrs had just come out, and the guy was talking to me about it and called it an "rsx" by accident lol
