Man this car is smooth. Looks awesome, has good gas mileage, has Toyota reliability, and plenty of standard equipment :D So who here is looking into it?

I originally was planning on trading my 1999 A4 + cash for a BMW M Coupe but screw it. I don't want a car that makes me worry about future every frickin day.

I am gonna graduate from college in 1 year and till that date, this car's reliability (we all know it probably will be great anyways) will be proven and I can probably afford it without any financing :)

So who else is interested in it?

For those of you with no clue, here.

It looks like such an awsome car, excellent price, unique and a great stockness.

Those 17inch rims are real nice.

They havent let you really customize it yet. I'm hoping for more of the customizing options they promissed like different rims and semi custom paint jobs and some of the performance stuff.

Turning down an M for a Scion?....not sure if I should laugh or cry. Or just scratch my balls in confusion.

Well the M had 40,000 miles and would still be $5,000 more expensive than a brand new Scion with 3 years warranty. Also I figured a rear wheel drive won't fit Virginia weather.

One looks like ass, the other is a 1977 Corvette.

Truth be told, I haven't seen an attractive <$20K sedan/hatchback on the road.

How much markup is expected on this model? And I know there's a long list of people wanting one. Hell, I was swayed from a Mazda3 to a tC. Maybe in a couple years when I finish school first I can get in a shorter line for one of these babies. :)

NFS4, I am glad we can agree on a car :D

I love this car. I hope it looks as good in person :) When are they hitting dealers? I want to test drive one as soon as possible :D

i would rather buy i Tiburon, better styling and good price.

toyota cannot possible compete against the koreans with this kind of crap.

too much of american styling for a japanese car

the front looks like a mercury sable and rear like saturn echo

Looks like a saturn. Lots of cars out there with better looks, style and reasons to buy.

I still hate that hoodline. If I bought one I'd have to install an aftermarket hood+grille integrated into one piece.
