did every one of you guys realy pay the exact sticker price? no negotiation at all?
if so why not buy a corolla or a mazda 3 (what do you think about this car? ) and negotiate the price to lower than the scion ??
i personaly have a hard time buying the no negotiation scam.

you can get a corolla ce for 13k, but it doesn't come with power windows and locks. in order to get that package, you need to get the S and with power package that woould cost 16.3k, the most i can get it down to 15.7k. mazda 3 is around the same price range if i want to get a/c + power windows. so xA is about 1.5k less and have everything that i want.
that's all about personal preference. i found the corolla's interial looks old for me, and mazda looks ugly. if i must choose between corolla and mazda 3, i will go for the corolla just because it get better resell value and last much longer than mazda. there is no hype about toyota quality, they do get the best worker and management in north America(I was told by one of my friends who is a plant manager in GM now).
again, it's all up to what you want and what you need. for me, i need a car like xA, cheap and use less gas. but i want a tC just because it get a much better ride(wider, quiter, and smooth) and looks more like a 30k+ car. since i can afford tC, so i go for tC.
