"Whats the point (is it worth) of the $1200 extended warranty on a Brand new car."
 
Because in a few years, with a few thousand miles, the car won't be new anymore, and you will be out of standard warranty.

New tC vs Used? Any Deals? Buying advice? by jano1

Hey guys,
I want to buy a TC, is there anyone that would like to share their experience and give me some advice on the process...
 
Anyone successfully bought it for less then advertised?
Any deals? As of now I only know that there is the $400 rebate.
 
How about certified pre-owned (6-year warranty?)
 
How about getting a used one? - prices are not much lower
but the miles are sure more than 0
 
Cheers,
Jano
 
I can shop in PA and MA.

Romano Scion Toyota experience by eddp

Hello,
I purchased a new tC from Romano Toyota Scion in Syracuse NY.
There were no discounts and the price was sticker price. I probably could have done a bit better on the tradein by selling outright, but the trade was a POS and I really didn't want to deal with it.
The sales team at Romano was excellent. And Roland Sanchez was easy going, no pressure, happy to take the time for a long test drive. Paper work issues on my tradein pushed the deal out a couple of days and they were more sympathetic than worried about closing the deal.
The only issue that I had was the shop installed the mudflaps without my authorization, I would have done it myself instead of pay for such a simple job, but the salesman knocked the install fees off the bill. So not much other than list price, but a little bit that was appreciated.
I'd been shopping for a few months and chose the Scion over the four cylinder model Mitsu Eclipse and Hyunda Tiburon as the Scion was quieter and seemed solider than those two.
I've had the ride for about 2000 miles now and absolutely nothing has gone wrong. The car gets funner to drive every day. The only down side is the seat, while supportive, is uncomfortable on long highway trips. (Keeping my Impala for highway cruising.)
I definitely recommend Romano Scion and the tC.

I'm thinking about leasing a manual tc, no options added. What am I looking at in terms of monthly payments with roughly $2,000 down? Credit score 710.

You do not need to wear a wire.....If you bought a used car they should have made you a sign a paper saying that the vehicle had been previously titled. There are also numerous places throughout the paperwork where the saleman has to check off whether the car is new or used.You must have signed all of those papers- check through them and then go make your point. A demo is considered a new car because it has never been titled. Double check before you go!

Auto Door Locking system by jampanis

Hi all,
 
I got my new Scion TC last month and I love it as much as you all do. I was talking to my Dealer(Service tech) today about this auto doorlocking system which is the most common feature even in the basic cars and which is not in Scion TC. I mean when we shift the gear, the doors should get locked automatically right!!! which does not happen with TC which I am not able to digest. Is it really true or do we need to do something to get it activated?
Thanks.

The only other "No dicker" nameplate (Saturn) had that go out the window years ago. Rebates etc... How long or if Scion can hold this up (they are old hat now) is open to question. I have seen them advertised under list already. In any event one would want list with a minimum (zero) of documentation and ad fees. Many dealers may have more flexiblilty in add ons. So a list deal with about 1000-2000 (list price installed) of dealer add ons (flaps,floor mats,lights spoilers etc) thrown in would be very good as the Scion (18800 for a top line auto?) is overpriced.
