I have no idea what the weight is on that car, but my Accord is rated at 24/34 for auto and 26/35ish for a stick. 160hp/161lbs/ft. It seems rather ridiculous a bigger car that more than likely weighs more gets better gas mileage.

Scion tC: 23/30

Sentra SE-R: 23/28
"that's rather lousy for a car that size"
lol, you are talking about the car size, not the engine size.... The engine is 160 hp 160 torque, as NFS4 pointed out, cars with similar sized engines (at least the Mazda 3s) gets similiar mileage.. (though ~10% better), or worse in the Sentra instance.

Also, I don't like the naming scheme either. And, no, it's NOT like BMW. Yes, you have different series of cars, but then you have the second ABC part which makes for a common thread through both. So what's next? tD? xD? What? It's the second part of the name that makes no sense.

LOL, I don't think it will do THAT well, but it looks better than bitch-ass Civic coupes. Don't get me wrong, I like my GF's '04 Civic EX but it is hardly impressive. It has the 127HP engine, but it's not all that fast and the interior is actually becoming more of a disppointment the more I look at it...
Even though the styling of the interior in my Camry is straight out of the 1990's, the interior quality/execution seems much better. There is flash all over the plastic parts around the transmission tunnel and the along the door seams and grab handles. The plastic around the gear shift housing is a cheesy silver-colored variety and the black plastic with sparkles in it around the HVAC controls is a touch crappy.
Considering that the tC and a Civic EX coupe will be around the same price, I don't see why anyone with go with the Hon-duh

BTW its milage isn't great, but it's bigger than it looks - at least in weight. It weights nearly 3000 lbs which is up in the range of an altima more than something like a sentra.

I believe in years time, the tC will outsell the Civic once Scion becomes more and more familiar with people. This thing is such a beast in terms of quality and price!

The tC will never outsell the Civic if the Corolla still exists. the tC is a niche car - the Corolla appeals to the average consumer looking for an econo car. Even Brandon can agree with that
But I agree - the Civic is pretty outdated now - there's little to be impressed with. (His gf's I mean)

I could see it maybe coming CLOSE to sales of the Civic Coupe, but it would never surpass total Civic sales.

Do you really think there's enough room in the market for both the Corolla and the tC to co-exist and not dip into each other's sales? Do you have the current sales numbers for the Civic/Corolla? I just don't see the tC coming close to the Civic's numbers without eating away at the Corolla, knocking it off the top spot and defaulting the Civic to the number 1 econo car. I don't know how many Civics are sold yearly but I'm willing to bet it's close to around 150,000, which is an extremely large number for a niche car like the tC to achieve.
Yes, that does suck, especially in the summer. Really undermines the A/C.Originally posted by: ElFenix

Skylar: Maybe we could go out for coffee sometime?
Will: Great, or maybe we could go somewhere and just eat a bunch of caramels.
Skylar: What?
Will: When you think about it, it's just as arbitrary as drinking coffee.
