2006 Scion tC review from North America
"You get a lot for the money, but it is still an economy car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Annoying small rattles and squeaks in the interior that come and go in different places. The dealer fixed some of them, but they came back after a few weeks.
Some interior surfaces (dash, doors), though they do not look especially cheap, are delicate and too easy to permanently scratch or scuff.
General comments?
Nice looks.
Quiet interior (except for rattles sometimes).
Hatchback is practical.
Good value for the money.
Toyota reliability.
Decent mileage (I am averaging 29 MPG).
I hate the low-profile wheels - they look good, but it is too easy to damage tires or wheels on curbs.
