Default My scion tc is gone.

Sorry guys, another tC owner is leaving. I traded in my 2006 Scion tC with Acura RSX Type S. The offer was so good that I couldn't resist. I was supposed to buy a 2007 Civic Si but I can't get off my eyes on the RSX when I saw it in the lot and I got a better deal with the RSX. It is in excellent condition, low miles and super clean. I just love the screaming sound of the VTEC. =)

true, but for different reasons that i'm sure your aware of. scion doesn't want to keep the same models around for decades to come. they want to keep the line up fresh by changing them every couple of years to keep our attention.

the tc will be discontinued. but i'm sure it will be replaced by another sexy hatchback coupe. maybe it will be tf, or xf or cf or ct or some other combination of two letters

oh wait, i know, the tc will be replaced by something that looks more like the fuse concept.

the rsx however is just completely gone, as in not even succeed by some other front wheel drive two door hatch. i guess they wanted to make acura more classy than honda by setting the entry level car a bit higher.

2004 RSX type S. Original price was $17500 with 9500miles. I was able to negotiate it down to $16K with extended warranty and GAP. They valued my car for $15K (with 18" enkei emx and lip spoiler) with almost 18K miles. Btw, this wasn't possible without the man who took care of me, a fellow filipino. I am really happy with my purchase because there was no hassle, pressure and I was very comfortable.

Don't worry guys I'm not going to be one of those ricers. hehe!


** They valued my car for $15,500 but this damn polish salesguy noticed the rock chip on my windshield so they lowered it to $15K.

Oh!
Sige Na padre.
Enjoy mo ang bagong kotse.

I should come over there on the northside suburbs and have you break in that RSX against my tC. I know. I'll lose.

you dont have to apologise! RSX-S is a step up and you got a good deal so I'm happy that youre happy and youre most definately going to enjoy it.
