I think you'd have a hard time getting into an Evo for $17,000.

Personally I'm not a fan of either car, but the tC is the nicer of the two IMO.

A big NO to both... Buy a used S4.

S4's in your area...

i'd buy the scion. Wife has one... 40K miles and only 1 prob which was covered under warrant. Since scion's are fixed price you can get it from pretty much any toyota dealer.

I would go with the new car because you will have A) Warranty and B) knowledge that the car is new and no prior abuse.

because it's what pretty much replaced the Celica (also a chick car). and most of the people i see driving the tC ARE female. but i would choose the tC over the accord just for potential and looks. reliability, they're pretty much the same. But if you're lookin for somethin else in the same price range, i'd consider the new civic si too. k20r i-vtec 197hp with lsd? for 21k? i think thats value
