the whole "selling point" of scions are that there are tons of after-market shit to do to them, so the scion car looks pretty generic... but for the same price you can buy a better looking car, like an eclipse, altima coupe, cobalt SS, etc.
I'm looking for a new car right now too... and I thought about the scion car, but it looks really generic, so you have to be able to afford the car then all the body kits, etc for them.
personally I would buy a car that looks better in the same price range... unless, of course, you have the money for the body kit and shit... and in that case I'd look for a car that's more expensive.
I didn't blaze, but I've had a few xannie footballs, so I figure that's just about even

Well, i've been in one and even driven it once... but it would help to know what your looking for in a car? It seemed practical enough, small and maneuverable, without being too cramped inside. Decent gas mileage too, although you could do better. And reasonably quick for it's size. They were comfortable enough but I didn't drive it long enough to really notice details. Except maybe for not having quite as much visibility as I would have liked, but i'm sure you get used to it.
I don't think i'd buy one, but it's just not my type of car. Has a more new age techno feel to it somehow, i don't know. The whole after market parts thing is pointless too... unless that's what your going for... but i've never seen anyone rice out a Scion, even though it would probably be really good for that.
Oh, and one little afterthought about it looking generic... that's open to interpretation and personal taste. But if you ask me, blending in with other traffic is a good thing. The car probably is a cop magnet, depending on how you drive of course. Something else to consider if you like to keep a low profile.

dude go for the altima coupe...everybody and their mom has a tc. I know there is not as much after market as the tc but I think it looks better/rarer...it has some understear but that can be fixed if you're gonna tune it. plus we all know how powerful a nissan can get. if you wanna spend a lil' more...eclipse, civic, or sentra se-r spec-v
