Those are just about polar opposites. And I thought the guy who sold his Audi TT for an xB was a change!

Well congrats on the xA, and welcome to ScionLife

It's all good :D

I drive a Benz E320 myself and my wife drives a xB. Just have to face it, these cars are a blast to drive. They may not have as much power as our daily drivers but then again, they don't suck up as much gas either. Plus the fun factor is that they're light, nimble, and the parts to fix 'em up are WAY cheaper than our cars. To tell you the truth, when I'm ready to change my Benz I might actually get another Scion for myself.

She thinks the tC would be safer and more reliable. She's had nothing but trouble with the BMW:
Both back windows broke (quick functioning and would slide down into the door randomly), One still doesn't move.
Front window switches fell into the center console.
Rear door trim fell off.
Rearview mirror fell off.
Tires went flat or had to be replaced on several occasions from hitting bumps.
The car randomly shut off at stop signs a couple times.
The warranty is now expired.
Not to mention the numerous dents and scratches from vandalism and minor accidents.
Oh, and there's a bullet hole in the passenger floor board from when her car was stolen at gun point and left in someone's yard across the river.
After all that, a tC isn't so bad.
