and movin in to a tC. the xA is a awsome little car but its just a lil to small for me bing that im 6'5 and that im gettin merried my girl want something biggier and safer. i sold her on the tC and my inshurance gose down so much that im actully saving a deacent amount of money amonth. those factors have pushed me into sellin my lil car so for all the help if gottin here frm you guys on teh xA fourm, thank you its bhelped me alot in my endevors with my xA. I also ask you one more question do you guys think thatt 12,600 is a fair price for my xA with 18K milles and about 1,300 dollers in dealer options? also any advice for selling my baby would be appreiceated (im kinda hopin to sell before mid feb when my credit unions intrest rates gose up half a percent)

 

Man, hate to see you go, but I can understand the reasons.....

I think that is a very fair price, just be sure to really wax it up before you put it out to pasture...

 

Fair price, I bought mine with 10k for 12,500 and a few dealer accessories and some cheapo rims.

 

ya man it dose suck but i did was her up so nice ive never seen a white car reflect the ground so well. ill miss her for sure and my xA guys ill stick around on the xA fourm and hopefully help the next generation of xA owners with all ive learned here from you guys! thanks so much its been a blast!

 

here is some sales advice.

when or if you go to a dealership, do all that you can to RIP THEM A NEW ONE.

they will make 10k on other people (trust me i used to sell cars)

make sure you pay STICKER price after ALL OTHER OPTIONS INCLUDING FULL WARRANTY, GAP, ETC..

if you can get out the door, after taxes, after gap, after warranty, at sticker price. you got a real good deal, and they made maybe 100 bucks on you. but this is only good on a brand new car.

if your going to buy a used tC, get the price of the trade value they gave the previous owner, then go 100 bucks over that ONLY. Make sure it is his REAL trade in price of the previous owner. ( For example, if the used tC is 15k on the sticker, they probally gave the previous owner 8-10 grand for it. if it is real close to about 3-7 thousand difference, then that is it.)

if they really want business, they'll do it.

just my .02

 

you're getting married right? sooner or later you're gonna have a family... why not stick with something that has four doors? just a thought. and, yeah i think 12,600 is a pretty decent price to sell your xA. well, good luck to you man.

 

Why not wait to see what the new models have to offer?

 

kuz i love the tC just as much as the xA and thanks for the advice guys im workin on the dealer they only were gona give me 11K for the car ive gotton them up to 12100 im hopin to get them up to my askin price than ill be quite happy

 

well i get my tC tomarow morning!!!!!!!!! thanks guys its been fun and i hope that it still stays fun!

 

I looked at the tC when I was itching to get rid of my xA. Not impressed. Too slow and plain for me. I bought a 2002 Maxima with a 6 speed and 255hp. Not slow or plain at all!

But hey, congrats on the new car. Scion is a great car company I'll be back someday....

 

i fore-see you owning a mini-van in your future

 

Is that the Maxima that has the narrow sunroof front to back??

Looks like a Piggy Bank.


gd2, I like your choice.

 

wow u really got a good deal wish i did

 

i got it guys its azure peral and its freakin georgus! i cant belive how mmuch power there is compaired to the xA. i cant wait for the break in to be over im takin it to PIR to race my friends impreza. one thing though im having problems with the clutch any advice i cant seem to find out what it likes to keep shifts smooth

 

I made the same switch. . . it's just getting used to it. The clutch is fairly "grabby," so you'll have to be patient. Plus, being that the car is new adds to the grabbiness. The main thing you will have to get used to is that the revs drop a lot slower. . . but the clutch is perfectly fine and normal.
