I need a car and no dealer will finance me for a used Camaro or Firebird so I talked to a Scion dealer about the first time buyers program and get said he could get me in a $20,000 car with a trade worth little as $1000... which I have. The Scion TC im looking at is a 5 speed only $17,655. Its like a flint mica color but at night it shifts color from green to blue at different angle. Its REALLY nice. Anyone have any thoughts about these cars? I know someone bought one on here, just forgot his name.

I'm pretty sure the guy you are thinking of is trunks.
I know he is pretty happy with the car. But he'd be the one to talk to if you want any info.
I'm sure there are message boards out there on them too.1997 Cayenne Red Metallic Camaro<br />3.8 V6 M5<br />SLP Cold Air Intake<br />Ceramic Coated Pacesetter Headers <br />Flowmaster American Thunder Catback<br />Full 3.42 & Disc Break Rear End Swap

Don't do it... get a Neon SRT-4.
You will have a hell of a better time in a this car... For a slightly used SRT-4 with very very low miles, you're looking at about $18,000. For a new one its about $23,000
Just think about it?
Chirp, weeeeeeeee, Woooooooosh!, Chirp weeeeeeeeee, Woooooooosh, brrrrrrrraaahhhhhhhhhhhh, Wooooooosh.
And its fast
With the Scion TC all you got is...
Chirp, braaaaaahhhhh, and thats it with 163 @ 4000 rpm
Not very fun at all.

SRT-4 might be faster... but payments on a used car are usually higher, interest rates on used cars are terrible.
I would still get a brand new Scion versus a used, turbocharged Dodge. When you rebuild the SRT-4 for the 2nd time that scion will still be begging for more miles...<b><a href=\"http://members.cox.net/95batmobile/d86f.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Sinister Six©</b></a><br /><a href=\"http://www.sounddomain.com/id/95batmobile\" target=\"_blank\">My \'95 Bird</a><br />I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.

Who said anything about getting a used SRT-4? He said his price range is around $20k, that's about what a brand new SRT-4 costs. I would get the Dodge any day. That's BS that it won't last as long as the damn Toyota. Maybe if you were comparing the Dodge to a Honda I'd buy that.....-Eric<br />2002 Navy Blue Camaro...Striped and Stalled. 35th Anniversary SS wheels <br />Best ET: 15.384 @ 88.32 on street tires<br />Project Whitney: Goal, 14.0 1/4 by summer 2008.

You are sick in the head if you think a Dodge will live as long as a Toyota.

last weekend at the cleveland auto show the scion said that the super charged verison is coming out in "a couple of weeks". I'm not buying a new car until december when I "upgrade" to a better winter beater so i have lots of time to think about itBen<br /><br />1995 White/Black 3.4L<br />As far away from stock as possible<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=288292\" target=\"_blank\">My Site!!!</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.redlinevsix.com\" target=\"_blank\">RedLineV6</a><br />Rebuild and 3.4 T70 Turbo is complete<br />Details to come....
