Had a 2016 for a year, when it came out. Its a good little coupe thats not fast and not that quick. Id say itd be a good first car for a high-school or college student. It uses the 4 cylinder engine from the camry back in the day. You have the reliability of a Toyota, but with a bit more flare. Comfortable, affordable, sleek design, fwd (so no sliding around like a brz), ok-ish fuel economy (26 mpg average), and good interior space.Jul 03, 2024

We officially bought the car 2 days ago. The car will be primarily driven by my 16 year old son who is in absolute heaven. The car safety rating is very good and has the excellent reputation of Toyota backing it which makes his parents happy. The car has relatively low miles, only minor body imperfections, and came with some amazing upgrades such as an Airlift, bonus headlight package, remote starter. So far we are very pleased with the cars features. The A/C is VERY cold on these hot days. Works perfectly. I wish it had a backup camera for safety reasons but being a 2016 it does not have one. My husband owned a Toyota Celica in high school and says the Scion TC reminds him of that car. We hope it will be as reliable as the reviews indicate it could be.Jun 27, 2024

Great car with the exception of discontinued cd layer for those still choose to have one. All else is the same from 2014 with slight differences in headlights and fog lights and tail lights. Still a beautiful car to drive Feb 16, 2022
