I just purchased an '08 Civic Si coupe.
I DIDN'T purchase a Tc because i'm not a chick, and i didn't purchase an overpriced Type-S (even though i tested it) becuase it is now an antique
. There is one reason for it's extinction, it's called the Civic Si. Checkmate
.

brilliant. NO man can deny that the scion is a total chick car. (and a horrendously common one at that.)

Let's just talk about the cars themselves and stop the sweeping generalizations about who drives them.

Sorry, but I find it hard to believe that ALL Honda customer service is handing all of their issues. As a matter of fact, I have a hard time thinking that any car company does. My experience with my TC has been nothing but superb. At around 40k miles, I have only had a loose side mirror occur. This mirror was replaced by Toyota service with no gripes, grumbles, or glitches. I paid NOTHING. So that ruins your "all Toyota locatins/service areas are thieves and trying to charge for repairs" rant.
Facts are:
Both cars are reliable.
Both cars have good fuel economy (Civic is better).
Scion TC insurance is cheaper.
Scion TC maintenance is cheaper.
Both cars come from strong backgrounds. (Honda/Toyota)
I was on the fence with TC or Civic. I chose TC after going to check out the civics. Both companies are highly recommended car manufacturers. What put the TC over the Civic was it's "bang for the buck". All I wanted was a small, reliable car with a little bit of "umph". Both cars have it, depending on transmission. BOTH cars are good choices. I really don't think you could go wrong with either. And neither far surpasses the other in any situation.
