@@baronvonslambertthanks for repping the real Saturn story. They were incredible in the early years, the fall from grace only happened when all of their ideas were absorbed or quashed by the rest of GM. Saturn on its own was awesome.
Saturn was a different kind of car company. Their first ad is burned into my brain. Respect for what they did for affordable transportation. I'd rock a wagon for $500 👌
I use to have an 06 Scion TC, with bolt ons, and a big turbo. Pushing 290hp and 240 torque, but see it weighed 2600lbs. It was a blast to drive, made alot of people salty, until someone rear ended it...
i had an 08 5speed with several of the trd interior options and it had like 178k miles and never had a single mechanical issue ever. i put falken azenis rtk615k+ tires on it and just drove the ever loving shit out of it till a guy in a fuckin ford tarus pushed me out of my lane and i rear ended someone and it fucked up the frame. amazing cars i should have bought it from insurance it was still totally driveable but the headlight mount and radiator rail was all fucked up. i miss it so bad
@@OwO---Drunk_Seulgi---OwO It's a special edition model signed by him that comes with a special speaker and subwoofer system. There are only 100 of those so it sells for a premium.
The factory head units do look aftermarket. It's pretty cool, actually. Scion really made a great effort at trying to understand what the younger crowd wanted.
We had the super charger on display the moment the first gen TCs came out and NO ONE bought them. We never put one on in my entire decade of being there.
My rear seats were never up💀 when I bought it and figured out they can do that they IMMEDIATELY AND INDEFINITELY went flat down. Made hauling things a breeze
You can get a car with all glass from windshield to trunk, auto up and down windows, reliable slow motor for 2k and a great nontoxic community with tc's at least 🤷🏻♂️. I feel like only "cool cars" are drift taxed or coomer supras and unobtanium idk I had a RHD turbo sw20 and still went back to the tc1 😂
The Scion tc was what the corolla of the time was supposed to be, the xa is actually pretty cool too, it looks bad ass with the rear doors completely deleted. Makes it a 2 door hatchback like it should’ve been.
My mom had a Scion XD, bought the first year they came out. Put 200k on it with zero problems, it got totalled, she bought another one and has 160k on it, also no issues. Way better commuter cars than they get credit for
I had an 06 scion tc. It was my first brand new car. There is so much glass in the roof that it makes it weigh way more than it should. If they just made it a regular smooth top with the same power figures, it would've been a blast to drive.
As someone who's owned 2 2000-2005 Toyota Celica's, they are the most unreliable engines Toyota has ever stuffed into a car. I'm a fan of Yamaha, but they DID NOT produce great engines for the GT and GTS
That was only for the '07 to '10 tC's and '08 to '12 xB's because toyota decided to change the piston ring manufacturer halfway through production and that's how they got the notorious "oil consumption" issue, which for the vehicles that were affected, toyota replaced the motor for absolutely free
I felt like the Scion TC was suppose to be the next Toyota Celica, but because they were pushing the Scion brand at that time, it was called the Scion TC.
i wish i could add a pic of my 08. the 1st gens if they were in good shape looked pretty solid for what they are. ill stand by these cars for the rest of my life.
When this car first came out, it was one of the best and coolest things. It looked so good even had a double moonroof. It was a very cool car at the time.
I saw these TCs before release at a prelaunch in Summer of 03 around Tampa. These cars were super nice for what they were trying to be at the time. I had a Prelude at the time. These weren't a Prelude, but for the $ they commanded for a new car, it was enticing at the time. These things were everywhere for a time. I rarely see one now. And when I do it's been well ridden. But it still runs. Always liked the brand. Especially the xB and the TC.
Ex-wife had a Scion TC when we were in college. It was actually a pretty cool car back in the day. I wouldn't call it a sports car but it was a sporty 2 door car. It felt surprisingly quick for the hp number but only up to like 50-60mph. I'm assuming the first few gears were lower and closer than your typical 4 door 4 banger and made it feel more peppy than the hp figures and 1/4 mile times suggest. Perfect car for a female college student imo.
05 clean title manual TC with 280K owner here, It's rough. Had someone knock on my door asking if it was for sale? I was confused because there is about 6 other TC's close by and they are not hard to find?
I have a 2nd gen, 2012. No major issues. It's been a great fun car, I plan on doing more performance mods, like a short ram, lowering springs, stuff like that. I've noticed 2nd gens are usually in better condition then the 1st gens.
I always liked how the 2nd gen TC's looked. When I was looking for a reliable car (I have three projects because I'm an idiot) the Release Series 10 was my number one pic. A modern fun, reliable, economical, manual and decent looking daily is harder to find than you think. The RS 10 actually looks pretty sick.
I got a 2005 tC new, it was one of the first couple thousand built. My, now, wife bought a 2006 because she liked mine so much. I loved mine, it was built really solidly and had zero problems while I had it. Heck, the hatch handle garnish never even broke. I've seen that there are some weak points with them over the years and my wife's car had a few minor issues that mine didn't. Rare for an early build car to be so good. The first gen was much better in my opinion. Toyota somehow managed to cheapen the tC and xB second generations yet also charge more for them. I would absolutely consider buying another one.
coming from someone who used to work at toyota back then trd stuff or trims was kinda rare but nowadays they got a trd for everything except for the rolla and i think either the rav 4 or highlander i remember one of them came into the shop and it was a trd i think it was definitely a newer rav 4 then they also have the trd pro’s
I have a 2006 tc as my daily. Almost 190k miles, 40k of which I put on. Got it from a dealership when my '84 300zx started giving me problems but I still wanted a 2dr manual hatchback. Aside from burning oil, 5th gear crumbling on me and occasionally grinding into 3rd it's been solid for the $3k I spent on it. The z31 has more horsepower though lol
Helped a friend install lambo doors on his turbo'd TC, that thing was nothing but a slow dude magnet. Went to a bunch of Scikotics club car shows, which were always hosted by dealers. I do like that Toyota actually tried to make a tuner/culture community with Scion and supported it.
I had a first gen scion tC as my first car, it was a great little car and was great for learning to drive manaul on, I bought it with a little over 300,000 miles on it, it started out ok but let me tell you she started burning oil like crazy, eventually she would burn half her oil supply in about 2 hours of driving, lol still awesome little cars
I think the supercharged one made 220 with the upgraded pulley. turbo 2az motors made really good power and they’re relatively reliable they’re no k series but they’re decent
I had a 2.5 gen and always got roasted for how aggressive it looked while being mad slow so I'd never drive it and I would opt to drive my first gen instead because the windows were one touch up and down while the one 10 years newer had less features. The one thing I'd like to add to tc's are auto climate control.
I learned to drive stick in a first gen tc and I think they are one of the best first cars to get. Easiest car to learn to drive manual and cheap asf. My tc never burnt oil so maybe I got an anomaly but for 2-3k they are fun. They also have a surprising amount of torque for a 4 cyl. especially from that era.
Posted my stock Yellow 2012 TC in the discord and just got shit on by other people lol, Its true being an RS doesn't make it super rare or more money but its neat that you have # X of Y and as other people state and you guys have said they are good Daily Drivers to get from A to B and for the time back then the option for factory mods out the gate and the tech in the cars were fantastic for being cheap MSRP Cars.
The first car I bought new was the third tC in Atlanta. I get the reputation of these being abused by every weeb in the world but I actually really loved to drive in this car. Had good handling, a good manual to learn on, and I had a lot of trips on backroads just enjoying "sporty" driving.
Yea my buddy got an XD with the pioneer system from factory and they gave him a cd. He rly wasn’t into music. Was kinda a scientist kinda dude who I sold mass amounts of herb to
I've been eyeing my neighbor's mint Xb for the past few years here in Georgia. He thinks I'm joking but that thing would be perfect as a second or third car.
I was a lot boy at Toyota in 03-04 and this kid brought in his new Celica GT-S. Completely painted the huge dash white. The worst thing Ive seen to this day.
I tried to buy two XB's and two TC's over the last 3 months I was car hunting and none of the sellers would even respond. These sellers are ridiculous.
I had an 06 tC. I paid $16,000 for it brand new. It came with a decent fit it’s time 160hp engine, 4 wheel abs, 4 when disc brakes, power windows, power mirrors, dual moon roof, side mirror turn signal, mp3 cd stereo, 17” alloy wheels… Toyota reliability. It never pretended to be a sports car. It was a good commuter car that felt solid. I lost it in 2010 when an illegal alien slammed into it. $16,000 with all the features I mentioned from other manufacturers? Not going to happen. I should say nobody came close to the value that car brought.
I loved my XB...a truly unique and versatile car. But the TC never made much sense to me as it was too heavy...the 2.4 was ok but it was 3k pounds. The XB was only 2400! The rest of the scion models were nothing special at all. Unfortunately, scion tried too hard to distance itself from Toyota...as a salesman told me that most people had no idea who made scions and thus viewed them as a risky buy.
They have good/decent handling, they can really zip through corners and turns on a dime. But to really call it a sports car, I don't think so. I think they were actually called sporty commuter's or a sporty coupe, something like those
I got pulled over in my gfs Tc on a road trip and the cop would have arrested me for speeding but the town was so small they didn't have a jail. 107 in a 35... I had just come off highway into speedtrap.. Epic ticket costed more than the vacation😂😂😂
shit honestly that red tc2 was a good deal, manual too. I drove to Montana years ago to buy one exactly like that and the wop shop that did the ppi didn’t bother to mention 3rd gear was fucked. Longest fucking drive, 20 hours round trip and had to cancel the check and shit
Bullet proof as a certified toyota tech at the height of these never worked on these put trd supercharger on one and a ac blower on 1st gen XB and I’m sorry fellas back in the wekfest and slammed Enuff days I broke necks with my XB! y’all young cats weird but again if hating feels good knock yourself out…least the shit car community and economy happened at the same time made it easy to bow out!!! Love this channel y’all last bastion for us car folks
I lowkey was considering a TC as a daily driver just to drive until something blows kinda glad I moved past that phase. It’s a 2door Camry with less power than the v6. Don’t get me wrong, I’d still rock one, but I’d rather get a Mazda 3 hatch or Honda fit for a daily. If you’re looking at sports car, anything remotely jdm is too expensive. I’ll stick to murican junk for that.
"these cars are never gonna become collectable" "man i miss scion" i can smell it coming
the first xb has potential
Toyota boys will be loving these cars for a good long time
@@DrRyan82994the 1st gen supercharged trd tCs will be too no doubt and you already know frs in good condition are gonna be the next 240
Collectible? Nah, but a first gen XB is a car you never get rid of, kinda like my 1st gen RAV4, worthless to others but the best car you own

Yea my buddy got an XD with the pioneer system from factory and they gave him a cd. He rly wasn’t into music. Was kinda a scientist kinda dude who I sold mass amounts of herb to
We really need a documentary style video on that MR2.
Do one on the acura tsx
I've been eyeing my neighbor's mint Xb for the past few years here in Georgia. He thinks I'm joking but that thing would be perfect as a second or third car.
18:31 Missed the "Powered by B*tchdust" sticker in the Disney font. Really ties it all together
I was a lot boy at Toyota in 03-04 and this kid brought in his new Celica GT-S. Completely painted the huge dash white. The worst thing Ive seen to this day.
I tried to buy two XB's and two TC's over the last 3 months I was car hunting and none of the sellers would even respond.
These sellers are ridiculous.
I test drove a TC and was very surprised at how much NVH they had.
I had an 06 tC. I paid $16,000 for it brand new. It came with a decent fit it’s time 160hp engine, 4 wheel abs, 4 when disc brakes, power windows, power mirrors, dual moon roof, side mirror turn signal, mp3 cd stereo, 17” alloy wheels… Toyota reliability.
It never pretended to be a sports car. It was a good commuter car that felt solid.
I lost it in 2010 when an illegal alien slammed into it.
$16,000 with all the features I mentioned from other manufacturers? Not going to happen. I should say nobody came close to the value that car brought.
I never saw the hype behind TCs
I loved my XB...a truly unique and versatile car. But the TC never made much sense to me as it was too heavy...the 2.4 was ok but it was 3k pounds. The XB was only 2400! The rest of the scion models were nothing special at all. Unfortunately, scion tried too hard to distance itself from Toyota...as a salesman told me that most people had no idea who made scions and thus viewed them as a risky buy.
So the 2.4-liter engine, WITH a supercharger, makes similar power to my naturally aspirated 1.8-liter engine? And it's considered a "sports" car?
They have good/decent handling, they can really zip through corners and turns on a dime. But to really call it a sports car, I don't think so. I think they were actually called sporty commuter's or a sporty coupe, something like those
And am one of the few mechanics who owns an 07 Tc with an extra engine I'm going to rebuild then rebuild the engine that's coming out lol
I remember seeing my first Scion commercial. I knew it was a big mistake.
I got pulled over in my gfs Tc on a road trip and the cop would have arrested me for speeding but the town was so small they didn't have a jail. 107 in a 35... I had just come off highway into speedtrap.. Epic ticket costed more than the vacation😂😂😂
Tc mentioned🤝 preciate it boys
I have most of the demo CDs from Volume 1 - Volume 30.
Scion xb’s next??
shit honestly that red tc2 was a good deal, manual too. I drove to Montana years ago to buy one exactly like that and the wop shop that did the ppi didn’t bother to mention 3rd gear was fucked. Longest fucking drive, 20 hours round trip and had to cancel the check and shit
Love how all the TC's they are calling trash have about 150K less miles than mine!
I have a 2006 TC that’s my daily and I do enjoy mine.
Bullet proof as a certified toyota tech at the height of these never worked on these put trd supercharger on one and a ac blower on 1st gen XB and I’m sorry fellas back in the wekfest and slammed Enuff days I broke necks with my XB! y’all young cats weird but again if hating feels good knock yourself out…least the shit car community and economy happened at the same time made it easy to bow out!!! Love this channel y’all last bastion for us car folks
I lowkey was considering a TC as a daily driver just to drive until something blows kinda glad I moved past that phase. It’s a 2door Camry with less power than the v6.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d still rock one, but I’d rather get a Mazda 3 hatch or Honda fit for a daily. If you’re looking at sports car, anything remotely jdm is too expensive. I’ll stick to murican junk for that.
loved my 2.3 mazda3, same platform as the ford focus
I love the 2011 scion tc, It’s probably gonna be my first car and the first car I modify :)
I really liked my 05 tc and would buy another one ..... But man was it expensive. Hidden insurance and maintenance... Ridiculous priced tires
