Kelly blue book says a new 2008 scion tc goes for 15,900. ummmm I dont know about everyone else but I paid like 2 or 3 more than that! Someone make me feel better and tell me that i am looking at this wrong!

thats the SPEC tC

 

umm .. thats for a spec edition.. not a regular base model.

 

that is probably correct........that also does not include price for add ons.....as you get no credit for them..........if you have a 08 drive it and enjoy it........as the car business is not there to make us money........only them........sadly enough.

I have $6000+ into my car in 9 months and I bet I wold be lucky to get my $20000 I paid for it back.........

 

ahha the dealership tried to show me a super white tc. and i was like wtf are those camry hubcaps doing on it? then i found out it was a spec tc. and it doesnt come with alot of features. soo i dont see why people just dont spen the extra money.

 

I thought something was wrong! Thanks guys i was going to be mad if i paid 20,000 after everything and now they sell it for like 3,000 less. Thanks for clearing everything up!

 

It's not a house, it's a car. No matter what kind of car you get, they depreciate. No matter how many mods you make, it depreciates. They get driven so they lose value. It's not your fault, these things happen.

 

yeah, seriously dude, your car depreciates about 2 thousand dollars as soon as you drive it off the lot. chill out.

and yeah, spec edition, unless you got a tc spec, that model is worth less than a regular tc.

 

hmm in that case i should've driven my tc on and off the lot a few times to depreciate its value some

 

I dont understand half the responses in this thread about depreciation and cars dont gain value.

Actually go to the link and you will see he is talking about a BRAND NEW car. Its the KBB MSRP calculator. Cars dont depreciate brand new before being sold.

Actually any Scion goes for exactly what scion.com says it goes for. except for the added fees that the dealers charge
