Im not very happy with the car and i was wondering how much i could get for it before deciding to sell it. its 3 month old just hit my 5k miles. any sugestions on how much it could sell for?.

by the way im a long time reader of scionlife but i didnt join till now. because of this site i find out about the tc rs. I would show pics but its a stock model, nothing new to see.

 

What are you dissapointed with?
A good bet would be ebay. First of all, it is an RS. 1.0 limited model, and people might pay more just for that. I would say roughly 16-17 thousand.

 

it is a RS. 1.0 limited model, Im not dissapointed, i just want something with more luxury like an acura tsx or a bmw 325. plus i need a four door car now.

 

Why did you get a tC if you could afford a Acura or BMW? You must have money to waste/burn!! Nice problem to have.

I could easily afford a BMW, but like a Civic there are TONS of them everywhere! I got a TC because it was a coupe, pretty quick, quiet on the road, and handles amazing with a few cheap mods. The only car I had to seriously think about was a G35 Coupe, but thought since I put so many miles on my car I would be loosing WAY more money on an expensive car then a cheaper one.

On topic. An RS1 should fetch 15,500-16,500 from a dealer. Easily that much from a Private Party.

 

i feel you. i'm at the same point. i've had my tc for a month and it looks wow and acts good, but isnt great.

 

i see more tc on the street right now, more than any other car. everywhere i go i see one. just in my Neighborhood i seen 5 already.

true. i know what u saying.

 

lol i got an RS1.0 in April, and three months later got a TSX. TSX is a great luxury car, but it's the 1st four door I've ever owned. I think it's big and bulky and I still have gotten used to driving such a big car.

 

lemme get ur grill!

 

I was looking at a 3 series also. In a lot of aspects, I wish I would have gotten it, but hey... my next car will be back up in the more luxury market.

I went from the turbo IS300 to the tC, and there are some things the tC just can't deliver.

 

Ummm then it wouldn't be an RS1.0.

 

i bet you you could get it for 17K, and he'd probably throw in the rest of the car!

 

Something about the way the 3's feel on the highway.... its so smooth & pimp.

 

My wife got a 2005 325 Xi. The inside is pretty small though. I rather sit in the back of a Tc than a 325. If I was going to spend 40k+ on a car, I would buy infinity for sure M35! or M45

 

I was looking at the 06 325, everything I wanted for about 34k sirius, nav, xenon, 6 speed, aluminum interior, power seats and the fake leather crap.. Should ahve done it!!! Too bad 10+ week wait. Can't take the bus yo!

 

sorry but if im selling it, i will sell the whole car, not just part of it.

 

hope not. im not willing to wait the long. but i will find out friday since i schedule a test drive.

I think this is about where I am with the tc as well. HOWEver, If u could afford a nicer car, why did u get the cheaper car, only to sell/trade it a year later. While u say u wanted it because theres so many civics and Bimmers around, it seems like u bought the tc just because it was a new car/popular fad and it looked good. IMO thats indiscriminant spending, u must be a millionaire's kid...and u hopped right on the scion bandwagon to try to be cool and now that u haven't gotten the "recognition" you were hoping for u need to trade in a good car for something "luxurious" so u can feel superior and special. No offense, but I hate owners like u. That'd be like me buying a hybrid and running around tellin people what great mileage I get, then after a year trading up for an STI. You contradict your own statements. If u could afford a bimmer in the first place, then you're not a target scion demographic, and we don't need ya. Have fun trying to be cool in your luxury car, my tc will get me where I want to go just as quickly and safely.
