The sunroof is one of my favorite features.

Crap, how did I forget that?! Good call.

Go with the tC. More bang for your buck.

xA sounds like a fun ride (xB also for that matter)... at first I was like "woah... wth are those? " I mean... the xB looked like a mini-astro van to me... but the style is really growing on me... it really speaks on behalf of your individual character (just as toyota markets them)...

Yea I got a tC... the reasons are superficial... but now that I've gotten to know the xA and xB, I'm proud my tC is a SCION, along with the xA and xB

I've only had my tC for about 48 hours(almost 200 miles).

The rear seats recline.
It has a awsome moonroof.
Cruise conrtol is standard.
17's are standard.

Of coarse the power, price, styling, & interior.

I think xAs are hot. Love my tC but I like the matrix and to me the xA is a mini matrix wich makes it even hotter than an xA

I didn't like the gauge in the center of the dash though. I heard with a little bit of fabrication and cutting of the frame you can drop a xrs engine in the lil xA.. Then it really turns into a mini matrix, and one fast ride. 170 bhp in the light weight xA with the vvt"L"-i engine. Drop it, put some nice wheels on, and u definitly got yerself a head turner.

Whatever you choose remember:

The more features a car has, the more chance of something breaking and causing you headaches.

I chose the xA because I'm a cheap bastard and I wanted less gas usage and cheaper insurance rates. Plus nothing looks hotter than an xA thats lowered, tinted and with 17+ inch rims

I say, go drive them both. Park them both next to eachother and stand back and take it all in. Go with what is gonna fit your needs the best. I don't need 4 doors, and wanted a sporty car, so I got the tC. It fits what I wanted and needed.

I got my tC because it's so much car for the price. I also considered the xB. To get alloys, a sunroof and keyless entry on an xA you're approaching the base price of the tC with 55 more horsepower(!). I also really like to throw my bike in the back and the tC has enough length there to do it without removing the front wheel.
