Default Longo Scion TC in July 4th

After months and months of looking at the pictures and going to the dealer day in and

day out, finally they had the demo car to view. The car is waaaaaaaaaaaaay better

than what you see in the pictures. Car had a drop of 3 inches. They cut off the

springs and it looked tight. Im pretty sure the ride would be crappy. Could not test

drive the car but by just looking I was pleased. The said the car would be ready after

the 4th of July, some said on the 2nd or 3rd week of July. Did not know who to

believe.There are pictures posted already in the forums. Tried taking some myself

but damn security was on me like a vulture. Sorry!!! But the car is tight as hell.

Looks like the IS 300 from the front and an Audi A4 from the back. It was not a nice

black as I thought it would be but it was still cool. Im going for the flint mica. The

inside was niiiiiiiiice. Very roomy in the front as well as for the back. The mats for

the car at $145 are not worth it. As for head room it was ok as long as you tilt back.

If straight up it will be a problem. Im pretty short and 5-10 and headroom was ok

unless tilting. Overall this car is awesome.

Went to Longo Last Saturday, and the sales people were "too cool" to pay me any attention. So I didn't bother Test Driving the tC because they didn't even bother to say hi or anything. I think their Hawaiian Shirts were on too Tight and Sh*t haha So took my business elsewhere. But yah, just wanted to share my experience with Longo. Also, the salesperson was a Fellow Pinoy! Dayam You Filipinos! hahaha jk

Here's the breakdown of my price.

$17625 - Car (Total Stock and Auto Transmission)
$45 - Document Fee
$1341.53 - State Tax
$165 - State DMV Fee
$5 - State Tire Fee

Grand Total = $18821

That really blows man. I was there last week when Kim first emailed that the tC was available for test drive. I was there after work (drove from Brea) and Verone and someone else was there.

Verone was with a guest sealing a deal and I waited for around 15 minutes for a test drive. It was worth it.

I came in the next day and wanted to place a deposit but there was only one Scion rep available and he was with another guest sealing another deal. I waited for 20 minutes. A Toyota manager noticed I was waiting and had a Toyota rep take my deposit for a tC, Auto, Flint, with Scion Security.

After reading how good Scion Security is, I had that option removed. I'm considering the Strut Bars and the CAI, now.
