Up for sale my girlfriend's 2008 Scion tC RS 4.0


We originally bought the car with 76,000 miles on it a little over a year ago in Long Island, NY and brought it back to Maine. We absolutely fell in love with Scion brand and now currently own two of them (2012 Scion tC). We were hoping to keep the car for a few years but due to excessive travel to work (80 miles a day, five times per week!), we have put on more then 20,000 miles in less then a year. This is the only reason why we are now selling our baby.

As of April 19, 2013, this is the only RS 4.0 for sale on eBay! This is #1559 of 2300 ever built. To my knowledge, there has been only two cars (of non-luxury brands) to feature all-Alcantara interior upholstery ever made - 2007 Scion tC RS 3.0 and 2008 Scion tC RS 4.0. The other features of RS 4.0 include:
  • Exclusive Galactic Flint Mica exterior paint
  • DAMD full body kit with exclusive badging on both sides of the car (see picture below)
  • Exclusive upper grill made only for RS 4.0
  • Exclusive black leather and dark wood RAZO shift knob
  • Individually numbered badge in the middle of the dashboard "SCION tC / Release Series 4.0 / 1559 of 2300" (see picture below) 

The car is perfect. We are the second owners and have been servicing the car in Scion dealership ever since we bought it in Long Island. All of 98,000 miles are highway miles and only slightly noticeable on the car. Beautiful, one of a kind Flint Mica paint is in perfect condition with minor scratches, which are normal for a 5 year old car. Mechanically the car is absolutely perfect. It has brand new high performance Kumho Ecsta tires, which make the car ride soft and quiet. It has been religiously serviced in local Scion dealership every 5,000k. All the paperwork will be provided upon the purchase. The car has been professionally tinted with 35% tint all around and has lifetime warranty with all provided paperwork. It also has some additional minor exterior enhancements like shorty Honda antenna, Scion fuel door vinyl decal, Bosch windshield wipers, and Scion real carbon fiber bi-pillar appliqu'e. Everything else is stock and has never been modded.   

As for the features, car has:
  • Full-glass panoramic roof with slide/open sun roof options
  • Pioneer in-dash Scion stereo with 6 speakers features more than 160 watt of powerful sound
  • Power locks and mirrors, power one-click windows, keyless entry
  • Cruise control, digital A/C with outside temperature view option (for some reason not available on 2011 and up models)
  • iPod plug-in with cable and controls via head unit
  • FWD, four-cylinder DOHC engine, 161 hp @ 6000rpm; 162 ft-lbs. @ 4000rpm; automatic 4-speed transmission  

The car is in exceptional condition and will be a great buy for people who love Scion brand like we do, or for someone who wants a fun little hatchback that gets great mpg (up to 30MPG on highway).

This is the third car I am selling on eBay and I encourage you to look up my previous listings to see how satisfied my previous buyers were. This is an auction based listing with "Buy it Now" option. I do have a reserve set, so if you would like to make private sale please contact me to make arrangements.

If you have any questions about the car please contact me via eBay and I will be happy to respond to you in a timely manner. 
PLEASE NOTE: the car is a daily driver so the actual mileage may differ from the mileage listed.

Scion iM spied testing in US in more production-ready guise

Sat, Nov 29 2014

Following the niche-oriented iQ and FR-S, Scion is preparing its first new model with mass-market appeal in quite some time with the iM. Just unveiled at the recent Los Angeles Auto Show in concept form, our spies recently shot some photos of a slightly camouflaged production iM doing some testing in Southern California. Judging by these spy shots, the production iM is taking many more styling cues from the European-market Toyota Auris that it's based on, than the much more aggressive concept on display in LA. The body kit with a low front bumper, flared fenders, side skirts and rear spoiler are all gone in favor of a much more mainstream design (we aren't surprised). The model's name comes from the first letters of 'individuality' and 'modern,' according to Scion, but if these shots are any indication, it looks like it'll pretty easily just blend into the crowd. Scion didn't reveal anything about that the US-market powertrain for the production version in LA but promised the details would be released sometime in 2015. The company did hint at a starting price under $20,000, though. It's too early to make any real styling judgments about the iM before the final version is ready, but until then see what you think of these spy shots of the upcoming hatchback.

Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.

2014 Scion tC with updated styling priced from $19,210*

Wed, 08 May 2013

Scion has released pricing information for a number of models, the most important of which being the updated 2014 tC that debuted at the New York Auto Show in March. The cost of entry for the tweaked coupe is now $19,210 with the standard manual transmission, or $20,210 if you'd rather the car did the shift-work for you (*both prices exclude the $755 destination charge). These numbers represent an increase of $485 versus the 2013 model with either transmission.
We have yet to drive the refreshed tC, but Scion says it ought to provide a much more engaging experience from behind the wheel. Automatic-equipped models now enjoy faster shift times with dynamic rev matching, and regardless of transmission, the tC is said to have improved handling dynamics thanks to reworked shock absorbers, stabilizer bar hardware modifications and retuned electric power steering.
In addition to the obvious re-schnozzing of the tC, other updates for the 2014 model year include a new standard auto display, featuring a 6.1-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth, HD radio and steering wheel-mounted controls.
