Critics agree...Chicks dig it! I don't mean to sound sexist, but I don't think any self-respecting guy will drive a convertible box.

i would like the convertable if they had chopped the windsheild and laid it back a few more degrees, giving a "true" roadster look to it.....

a good one will be cool, my mom already said she would get one if it ever showed up. she loves convertables, yet has never owned one. and if a scion priced and tC-like designed one shows up she is all over it.

well you know if not a convertable itd be nice just to have something with great performance. i mean ever since the supra was discontinued toyota was left with wimpy 4 bangers like the celica gt i mean sure itll stand up to a mits. eclips or mabe a sentra,(its like they are trying to appeal to an older generation now that the celica is gone thank god for the tc though) but come on nissan has the 350z and is returning to the high performance world with the skyline gtr. suburu has the sti, mitsu. the evo, mazda the rx8, even honda has the acura nsx to fall back on...and since i dont think the tc will ever have a v6 turbocharged option available i think maybe scion will introduce something that will give its name the respect that the supra brought to toyota.

ok so mabe u just dont understand the concept.... Scion- a division of toyota motor corps. founded to gain intrest from a younger generation because of the discontinuation of the celica and the mr2

convertable- an automobile that is able to remove or relocate its roof in order for the occupants to enjoy the experience of their suroundings without the restriction of a roof.

think about it a convertable is a sporty car usually scion is trying to appeal to that.
