Mainly I am interested to know if the 07 will have a 5 speed auto like the camry.

Also what are the town/highway milages that owners are currently getting. I was disapointed with the 23/29 for the auto that the official has listed sicen the camry does 24/34 and is like 300+ pounds heavier

 

I doubt it the tC is deisgnd to be cost efficent. The cost of adding a 5 speed auto will jack the price up about another $500-$1000. Plus they have the tuner concpts tCs coming out. I doubt the 07 tC wont have much added since it will be its last year of production.

 

Well since the tc uses basicly the camry engine, and the camry got the 5 speed auto, it might even be more cost efficient to use the same tranny in the tc. The mazda3 updated its tranny from a 4 speed to a 5 speed in 06 with no cost difference.

 

Oh yeah!! I think it would b dope to have a tC Tuner Edition even though it has nothing on it.

 

Where did you hear that the 07 is the last year for tCs?

 

each scion is getting a 3 year prodcution supposdly so going based off that 07 would be the last year for the tC.

 

How long has the xB been in production?

this is the last year of production of the xB. Its been coverd several times already.

 

so the link I added is made up?

 

That is a concept design. And no one is sure if that will be called xB. If you SEARCH! you will find that out enough said!

 

I have been searching online for the Scion production cycles and cant find anything solid. I have read about "shorter" than average production cycles but nothing about 3 years. I dont always believe the material I read on messages boards so I have been SEARCHING on a larger scale.

 

not going through this anymore with ya. its been said before several times if you search the forum there is an even an announcement from scion its self about it. Im not going to go back and forth with someone who only has 3 posts. You believe what you want.

 

I don't think anyone has actually confirmed the 3 yr production cycles. I mean, I think that was the original idea. But no one knows for sure as there really hasn't been confirmation.

As for the transmission.... the reason we get worse mileage is b/c the tC is geared for fun. The Camry is geared for lame.

 

uh oh hope im not in trouble

 

Let's keep this clean...

 

wow dude your a ____in jackass...all of that quoted above ^ u coulda explained what he was askin about....leave it to peeps on here that dont mind helping people out with questions. I may be mistaken but isnt that partly why forums exist....

 

well said

 

If you look he only has 3 posts and never posted again. He was most lilky just someone bored lookin to argue, those people are the ones who ruin forums. Im done with this thread now if you wanna continue to flame me go ahead but i think it needs to be locked.

 

I only have 3 post (now 4) because I just joined the group. I was not arguing, Im a month from getting a new tc. Number of post has nothing to do with it. I have swapped in JDM engines to american versions for years. I had to join sometime, Im sure there was a time when you only had 3 posts too. You are the type of person that ruins these communities for others.

 

Yeah, sometimes the "Use the search" thing is a tad rude and with new members, we should give them all breaks - they're here to be one of us!
BUT - had to be one, right? There are some just plain lazy folks out there, so there's a balance somewhere to be had.
Let's all be nice to one another - except when a tool starts a flame war, then it's gloves-off!
