please scion tc owners, stop the madness !!! we all love scions here! and the scion tc is an awsome car ! (love it) but be advised , your tc is not going to out run ... : corvette , bmw, subaru wrx, mazda rx8, porsche, neon srt , neon 4 door, etc... etc..
the tc is an awsome car and i like it alot , but is 4 of 4 things great looking (inside and out) , affordable ( great value for the dollar all the way around ), reliable (this aint no yugo), and has a very average power plant ( if not lesser than for it's size) so ... if you guys are bent on racing thing go after the following: schoolbus, xb, xa, escort, pt cruiser, people walking , rollerbladers,
or just continue to live your fantasy...BOSS THE TC JUST BEAT THE PLANE!!!

I have to admit, the number of tC vs. ________ topics is retarded.

jmiller20874

He said Neon 4-door.

Dude, I hate the Vs. threads as much as the next guy but I don't think anyone has mentioned beating any of the cars above. And for God's sake if it can't beat a non-SRT Neon, then I'm trading mine in.

Switch to decaf and chill. Was this really necessary? After all, no one told you to read them.

Car and Driver: 0-60 in 5.6 seconds, top speed 153 mph

Sport Compact Car: 0-60 in 5.8 seconds, quarter mile 14.2 seconds.

can your tc do this ???

daewonder

WORD.

professor

and actually ( sorry you said non- srt , some of the earlier neons would give the tc a good run in stock form)

jmiller20874

That's why I said NON-SRT Neon, Hooked on Phonics worked for me.

And I just came from a '95 Neon and no it wouldn't keep up. It only has 135 crank hp.

There is not way a tc can beat a dodge neon srt-4 I test drove it and got the stats/ 0-60 in 5 secs. That car can easily tie if not beat a v8 mustang and camaro. There is no possible way a tc can beat that neon unless you swap out an engine.

professor

a non srt neon and a tc are a close race i have seen it myself (seen just as many non-srt neon's (actually more) beat tc's than i have seen tc.s beat neons), so trade it in tomorrow or ...throw in the FAST AND FURIOUS dvd again...

jmiller20874

This thread is going about as well as a Vs. thread. Congrats you just created a tC v. Neon thread.

TimmyT

hehe. These "Please stop the tC VS. ____) Threads are getting just as old as the "tC VS. Threads" themselves.

professor

"dude i smoked a wrx with my tc and we gave eachother the thumbs up.....", dude i raced a gto tonight and we gave eachother the thumbs up....." OMG... THAT WAS HIS MIDDLE FINGER NOT HIS THUMB!!!
the truth is , they didnt race anybody , they beat the hell out of there scion tc chasing sombodys grandfather who didnt even know they were there( or racing) until theTC Driver raced to the redlight to show there looser thumbs up ... gimme a break or a gun at this point !

professor

picture this , you have plenty of money and you want to take your high performace car out for a cruise, and then you see wally the zit faced teen trying to race you with his tc ? what do you do ...

mikochu

Let's start the tC vs. tC threads so we can make talk poop about the lousy drivers! :D

chris0

what's funny is that this almost turned into a tC vs. neon thread.

tell him i'll give him a 10 second head start and just watch him peel out and drive wrecklessly and hope a cop is around.

TurboMe

dude chill out in ur box. lmao I dont blame the guys running a m3/GTO etc etc... should it be posted? i dont know. But how boring it would be if we told stories about smoking civic's, neons, sunfires, focuses 24/7? People are just trying to mix it up a little and I like that. JMO

TheScionicMan

I totally smoked this Corvette the other night, especially in the corners. Granted, the guy was trying to reposition his oxygen tube in his nose at the time, but hey, ya snooze, ya looze...

I would've caught this Honda, if it wasn't for the aerodynamics of his bodykit. Just saw this on my way to work the other day...

professor

just tired of hearing the dumb and stupid crap... about a TC owner who cut off and beat a corvett through the drive though at McDonalds (and then gave the thumbs up) uggg... , lets be real STOP IT !!! my gosh !!!

squareone

The TC is becoming the next civic. Its a shame. I liked that car too...
