It’s okay,a 92-95 Civic VX Hatchback gets better mileage than anything and is about as good looking as someone can have for so cheap so I’d get him that instead.

actually… i read in one of those consumer report magazines that they are one of the top 5 or top 10 (i don’t remember) best fuel economy 2008 cars out there.

Yes, it is very reliable. It is made by Toyota.
Only Honda can beat Toyota in reliability.
But insurance will be very expensive since this is a new car and since it is a 2 door car.
It has 160HP, so it is not that fuel efficient, but it’s okay.

I guess you should also check insurance quotes for Scion before buying one, for example here:
I will be expensive to insure for a first time driver.

Just don’t expect a $40,000 car when you buy a TC. They are a car and that is that. I really enjoy my TC with 38000miles on her it shows. Never had a problem out of her at all…
