Scion's attractive pricing combined with Toyota's reputation for dependable motoring makes the 2012 tC coupe compelling for anyone looking for a fun coupe with fair amenities. The aftermarket on Scion
Depending on your performance expectations when it comes to a coupe, the 2012 Scion tC may leave you as underwhelmed as in past models. For the cost of the Release Series 7.0 Package, many might expec
The driving experience has always been the biggest source of debate over the Scion tC, and the 2012 tC coupe is unlikely to settle any arguments. The clutch in the 6-speed manual transmission, for example, is both light for daily commute convenience and precise for quick shifts. Steering is somewhat anemic, but engine response at low rpm is more fun than expected.

Review this carBy Dank (ND) on Saturday, June 15, 2013
I owned and sold this car
Reason: Performance, noise, product materials - My approximate mileage is 5,500
Pros: "Value"
Cons: "Noise, cheap materials"
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 3
"I owned a Tc up until 3 days ago. I reviewed it here in March, and bought it new in 10/12. I gave up on the Tc after a tough winter. I am a one car person, and I believed that with FWD that I could survive winter, found I could not. Tc did not match the winter performance at all against my old Civic. Besides the winter issue, the Tc is cheaply made. Talk a about noise!, the Tc is terrible with keeping the sound levels to a decent level. Would recommend the Tc as a second car, but not as a daily driver."

"I absolutely love this car, I just bought it and its even better than I imagined. The styling is great inside and out, and the color is such a unique yellow. It rides and handles fantastic and gets surprisingly good gas mileage, about 27 average. The stereo is good even with the base audio and the keyless entry and push button is so nice!"
