Yeah, and I get banned for calling one of them a noob.... Meanwhile someone else called another user a moron and a dipsh!t and nothing happened...

Oh well, I'm not banned currently, but it's annoying with the constant noob repost.

They aren't all bad. Also its a great site for information on the car and they know things before the public knows.

indeed i love how these guys talk and dont know squat about scions. also and when they say dealers are going to mark the price of the scion up and their argument is "well my dad works at a kia dealership so i see it happen" it's like "no MFer we are not talkin about kia or hyundai or ford or chevy or honda. we said they wont mark up a scion so take your effin argument away"

Oh man, the amount of "it don't have a push button" complaints were a little overbearing.

My 350z didn't have a push button start, I mean come on..really.

I wouldn't be surprised if they do since I was told by my dealer last thursday that TMC increased the tC2 tag up to 20k for auto. The salesguy who told me; was scion owner and is now waiting to get FRS. Then we explained what were the prices back in '06. I paid 14,500 for the xA and 17,740 for the tC: times have changed.

they CANT do this. you make me want to smash you with a ban hammer. dealers can not mark up a tc. if they do you call toyota and that dealer loses the rights to sell scions. the only thing a dealer can do is install a bunch of options and mark those up. but they can not mark up a scion without that loop hole.

^ that and the auto tC2 wasn't far from 20k to begin with at launch and the MSRP has gone up a bit every year for every model so far, it wasn't a matter of if a tC2 could MSRP for that high, it was WHEN.

So people can fit in the back, depending on driver height of course. That cancels my only concern with the car.

lol. there is that one picture of the BRZ and there is like 2 inches between the seats.
either way, the back seats look like they only JUST qualify as an actual seat. more like a bench you can squat into

I bet a car seat fits back there just nice. Until they get big enough to kick that back of the seat.

You are incorrect.

Go read the policy on Scion's own website:
http://www.scion.com/#/pure-price

I've also read another portion of the policy that clearly states that dealers are free to set their own prices, as long as it is clearly listed in their menus in the showroom.

Here is an example of that line of text:
http://www.atlantascion.com/scion-pure-pricing.aspx

How about another random dealer(Houston) with the exact same text?:
http://smccallscion.com/PurePrice.as...tion=TrimPrice

Or one from Los Angeles? Again, exact same text:
http://www.longoscion.com/pure-price.htm


"Scion's "Pure Price" purchase experience means no haggle, no hassle. The price you pay for all products and services offered equals the dealership's posted and advertised price. Price menus are clearly posted in the dealership showroom for all products and services. Dealers are free to set their own prices."

So, do you smash yourself now? ;)
