[WishIHad$$$]

I haven't met anyone who actually likes these things. In fact, everyone I ask hates them. But not everyone hates them, or there wouldn't be brand new ones pimpin' down the street :rolleyes:

Do you know anyone who likes them?

I've seen one of them since they came out over a year ago.

It took everything i had, including a wife pulling me away by my arm to keep me from leaving a note in it's windshield with something like "Did you find this thing in a Cracker Jack box or IS IT the Cracker Jack box?" written on it.

ugly fuc*in $hitboxes. toyota is going down the tubes in terms of ideas. they're getting rid of the celica (my first car) and they have no plans to release ANY sports cars. they seem content to sell ugly econoboxes and cars for middle-aged people. they're starting to be like Honda. and i hate to say it, but Honda has them beat on quite a few things -

Accord Vs. Camry - while the Camry is still a 50-year old man's car, the Accord has been shifting it's focus to younger buyers. by giving it more power, looks, and handling.

RSX vs. Celica - celica is being tanked in this country, and the RSX had it beat in performance anyway.

sports cars - there have been rumors of toyota releasing a new Supra, but toyota has nothing to show for all the rumors swirling. meanwhile, Honda/Acura comes out with a sick NSX concept that outperforms the current one in every way.

toyota's heyday was 1993, when it had a turbocharged celica, MR2, and Supra. now, the Supra's gone, the celica's going, and the MR2 is a pussy-*** convertible. toyota makes me sick.

And thats just their cars. Don't even get me started on the "Gargantuain" Tundra and their "super tough" Tacoma :mad: :rolleyes: :mad: :rolleyes:

i am particularly found of the most recent round of toyota truck commercials. going on and on about being built in america with parts from american suppliers. all well and good, but the profits still belong to a foreign company.

:D he has a camry. and he's starting to rice it out. it's sad.

Just so you know, MR2's are getting killed too.

scion is supposedly coming out with the ccX, an AWD station wagon powered by the 3S-GTE (the god of all 4-cyl Toyota engines, used in the WRC Celicas and in the GT Supras, 2.0L, 250 HP and 250 ft. lbs. torque from the factory). that could be kinda cool, except it's a station wagon.

Its hard to say, I think its ugly, but overall... if I needed an SUV style vehicle and couldn't afford ****, its a good deal. I was looking at one opened up it has ok room.

But the modding them thing is kinda... eh...


Teh TC looks pretty nice though.

The xB is the worst car I have ever seen (besides local rice)... Its comparable to the Honda Element though.

I would never drive either one of those. What are people thinking when they buy it? Do they think its actually good looking???
