I paid about $24,000 for mine. It's an 08 automatic and I opted for the fog lights, spoiler and navagation. I was going to purchase an 07 leftover, but the salesman told me it mad more sense to buy a brand new one.

Sorry I also got the TRD exhaust. When I built it online it was the same price. The car started @18, then I added all of my extra stuff. The navagation was 2 grand, the fog lights were @ $350, the spoiler was @ $325 and the TRD exhaust was @ $525. Then I put nothing done and rolled 2 grand over from what I owed on my trade in. I know how salesman are with women, that's why I didn't go alone!!

24 grand is a little much for a tC. but how is the scion nav system? that's a pretty pricey system in itself (+2 grand right?) but is it worth it?

the 07 was still new correct? i dunno what i would've gone with, but i definitely wouldn't have paid more than 20 for either one with those options.

sorry

ok that makes a little more sense... but how is that navi system?

and salesmen are terrible with women. but it isn't just the salesmen. they just feed on women's emotions. women lead with feelings (many times) and they can be easily manipulated. (been with the wife for 11 years so i know a little bit - a little bit - about women!) good for you for not going alone!

I love the navagation system. I wanted to get the wheel package that was $1500, but I was later talked into the nav. I already had wheels from my celica (traded-in). The nav works great, haven't got lost yet and I am horrible w/ directions. Last week I just tried the DVD player. The picture is kinda small, but the sound was incredible w/ all the explosions. I do have to run a toggle switch so that I can play it w/o the e-brake up. I have a picture of it up on my profile.

I actually got mine as a gift. Heck i'm only 15 and the cars paid off already. Paid 20K, Carbon Fiber dash, and Pedestal Spoler. Bought it last year in September and paid it off by April 10th. It's a manual i love it But i had to go throught the process of Drivers Ed, Learning to shift and waiting 6 months for my provisional. Now i can drive freely.

true.. better to get exactly what u want than to settle and be disappointed later. still a lot for a tC tho. but with the economy today, not surprising
