i like to complain..
why is the tc heavier than the xb? somethings don't make sense.
The old rav 4 is even lighter than the tc. AND even taking out the spare tire, it still is heavier than the other cars. argh

You do know that the xB is a box, right? It's basically a large space enclosed by thin metal sheets.

Yeah, but it would only weigh 3.5 pounds (minus the driver).

Not to mention I'm not a big fan of the MF drivetrain layout.

First of all our roofs are made of glass. This is very heavy compared to a regular sheet metal roof. To give you an idea when Toyota made the Formula Atlantic Pace Car (which was a Scion tC) they replaced the roof with carbon fiber. The car overall was a little over 100 lbs lighter and this car had the supercharger added and a roll cage. Most of the stock car was still in place. Also our car is BIGGER then the xB, has a bigger engine then the xB, more options, bigger wheels, ect ect ect. We are still lighter then any 4 wheel drive on the market right now and the civic SI is right there in weight (and probably would weigh the same as a tC with a carbon fiber roof). You just have to realize what a car of a similar size weighs.
