New Car Time

New Car Time

Going this week sometime to look into getting a new car, prob a Scion XA. They only mod will be a TRD Short shifter and maybe a TRD muffler.

If you ask why I am getting a new car already, the corolla is only 4 yrs old and has 107K on it. The reason why is cause my cat convertor needs to be replaced and the wrist pin in the motor is going too.

If I get a new cat. and the car passes emissons in Jan, I will keep the car and put a new motor in it, if not its getting parted out and sold as is. Dunno yet.

u should go for a tC instead man or is it out of budget limits?

Yea its a little out of my budget, I actually like the styling of the XA too.

I prefer 4 doors over 2 anyways

That's cool dude, hope things turn out good man

each to its own taste! good luck! the tc is more of a girls' car imho

I'm not gonna deny that HOWEVER that's when the aftermarket comes in

specially at the shore when is over 100 degrees outside and thier driving around in bikini's.
man i can't wait till i get to the shore again

Congrats on the xA. Now we got another egg in the forum.

^^^^
Didnt get one, I am thinking of it, I just drove a Yaris yesterday and I now have to think about what to get

Yaris isnt that bad either.

i would stick with the xA. it is cheaper and has more to offer. the yaris is 17k for the power windows, abs and all the other normal things the xa comes standard with. if you can hold out another year, wait for the next scion models to come out.

But Yaris is lots lighter than xA. xA is like 2600lbs isn't it?

if i had a pick i would choose the yaris over the xA. Just puting that out there. But either way stick with toyota.

have u seen the video i posted up about a yaris in best motoring? bad ass man

^Was that the Japenese Vitz that had the supercharger in it? That thing was just friggin amazing lol. Lightweight and packed with power.

The Yaris is about 2300 lbs, and not a bad car overall. It may be a "tight" fit if you're a big guy, but otherwise if your budget is under $15,000 (as it sounds) then the Honda Civic base hatchback, Corolla (stripped model) and the xA are all good choices. If budget wasn't the BIG factor for you, then I'd naturally suggest a Tundra or even a base Tacoma. :-D

by the way he takes the twisties i dont think a truck would suit him, lol, he needs a sport compact...for a daily driver that is

id say go for the xA
