well if you are trading for a car that doesn't move to a car that does then go for it but a GSX when it's in good condition....I would take anyday.

I think the real question is, would you trade a run down gsx for a run down tc?

I doubt the tc can even come close to the gsx in terms of performance, especially if you have the awd one. The scion tc with the $3000 trd supercharger gives you a total of 200hp. With that, you add a couple of grand more and you are in the stripped down base wrx territory. So it really depends on what you really want. For me, I'm looking for something affordable, decent acceleration, good handling, good lools, and rock solid reliability. The tc fits me.

I am going from a AWD mitsu to an xB, its really about what you want, for the price I would keep the GSX, the only thing about that is the quality of the GSX, I am sure that the tC will be more solidly built, but if your used to the DSM quality now it wont affect you. As in perofrmance like it has been said, the TC with supercharger will get 200 HP, yopu have 210 stock then add your 16G and that can crank out 450 with supporting mods. People go into the 11's with a 16G, I think it will be a long time before you see a tC get to the 11's.
