I usually wash mine about once/week but this sure got off topic!

 

with my civic, i washed every week and waxed every 2 weeks. with my tc, ive waxed it once since i've had it, and washed it probably once every 3 weeks.

 

- How easy it is to DENT the fenders!..I dented my Front passenger fender w/ my Knee!!(twice)...Doh!...
- The A-Pillars should have "wide-load" labeled on them...
- How some of the plastic interior pieces Don't line up right!

Thats All I can think of for now!...
I LOVE my tC!!!!...

 

I'll say everything I found out post-purchase has been covered here, good and bad.

Wish I coulda' driven an MT before I bought one. I also wish the free Russian mailorder bride that came with it was screened for disease. I'm pretty resistant to little squeaks and stuff in the car, but you can't expect TOO solid a car for the price under these circumstances.

I like the tC a lot... just need to get the grindy gearbox fixed and a cure for these crabs.

 

?

 

-How horrible the clutch feels compared to every other car I've driven (I can't decide if there's something wrong with it, or if they're just all like this, but I noticed other people reported this too)

- The annoying dead spot on the gas pedal

- How much body roll there is (I have no idea how I didn't notice this when I test drove)

- How the stereo cover flap thing never gets closed any more, it's 100% useless - all it does is produce an annoying squeaking noise over bumpy road

- That the drivers seat needs to go about 2-3 inches lower.

 

that after looking at all these i really really really want a car

 

after you turn-off the car the little green lights for the
up/down button for the windows stay lit!

 

If you have the Auto Dimmer Rear View mirror..

the Shift Light can be changed from Amber to Blue to White..

haha weird.. didn't notice that until a week ago..

had the car since jan 2005

lates.

 

what do u mean shift light? as in the racing shift lights when your bout to redline? i didnt know it had those

 

yea he lost me there too. lol

 

1. The ride is smooth and i love it

2. Its much easier to shift then most manuals i have driven.

3. Traction isnt the greatest in snow...

 

found out that 85% of tC owners DONT READ lol

I havent taken mine apart yet, i will one day when i finish the easy visual upgrades im to scared to pull on anything....just got it 12 days ago.

 

The auxilary port plays my ipod just as the 260$ additional option radio would have. Not sure why Scion did not mention this to their buyers, but I'm glad I didn't waste the extra money.

 

cause the 260 ipod jack allows u to controll the ipod via the head unit and steering wheel, not the ipod itself.

 

lol

 

That's a huge waste of money when it's just as easy to control it from the IPOD. I guess they'll take you for anything you got. It would have been nice of them to explain that though. Seems like they just wanted to sell the more expensive radio and not let you know the difference.

 

Hmmm, the iPod radio came with my car, so I'm not hatin' on the price differences...... but I did find out a couple of things about the car after I had it for a while.

1) The SSP button with the xA/xB/tC setup.
2) Change the text on the HU
3) The glove compartment locks
4) The hatch/truck area is smaller than the last car I had, so every time I have to haul around my cello (yes, I rock), I have to put down one of the back seats.
5) You can turn the seat belt beeping off
6) Mode button on steering wheel can turn off the HU
7) Trip A andddd B. How awesome.
Auto windows for passenger/drivers up
9) I couldn't get OEM fogs for my RS if I wanted to keep my grille.

Hmm, that's about it.

 

i learned that this car will cost me WAAAYYYY more than 18K in the long run.
