trading my yaris - Toyota Yaris Forums

miikeydakiid · 05-29-2011, 08:28 PM

hey guys im think of trading my yaris sedan for a 2011 scion tc. But my gf says that the tc is a "chick car" what ever that means. so i'm just woundering what you guys think about the tc

And she thinks the Yaris is manlier than the TC?

Scion TC is like a fixed up corolla imo, I'd take the Yaris over that.

marcus · 05-29-2011, 09:37 PM

ill take tc anytime over yaris... and last time i check im 101% man..lol

Don't know about the car. But letting your "gf" or others influence a $20,000+ decision based on looks alone will lead to a life of never having what you want. Get what you want while you are single and stop worrying about others opinions.

Amen to that!

do what you want, but i would wait and check out the ft-86, if it ever comes out it will be so much nicer, and rwd.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the FT-86 completely!

Wait on it man.

swidd · 05-30-2011, 02:00 PM

will the ft-86 be in a cheap price range? (<20,000)?

marcus · 05-30-2011, 02:30 PM

ft-86 is starting to look like hyundai genesis to me.. are they related..?

Not bloody likely. I'd peg her at closer to $30k.

27-32kish

It will be the size of a 350z or abit smaller, I know its smaller than an M3 and Mustang, so if you have heavy snow where you live you probably cannot drive it all year around.

marcus · 05-30-2011, 08:16 PM

am i checking a wrong site coz it say ft-86 only had 150 hp

there is a lot of confusion because Toyota has said several different things.

What looks most likely is two cars, 1 an all out sports car in the 30k range that will compete in that range, and another light weight rwd vehicle they can stick in the scion lineup.

Keep the Yaris. If you're anything like me you don't want another car payment. Don't worry about status and having a "better car", it's overrated. In this economy necessity is your best friend (And I say that because I paid mine off ahead of time 2 years ago. Lucky for me I had a high enough paying job at that time to do so. Even more happy now with the car than ever before)

thanks for posting that link.. we can close this topic now with all the "I read this, I read that" bs about the FT. So much misleading info about this car when poeple post about it and nobody puts up a link to where they read thier information from.

I am personally excited about the this car. I think it is a similar look to the Genisus, but its a toyota and going to be better.. lol
