Does it look chunky to you guys? If those are 19" they look kind of small. . .

it doesn't look that big in person, it does have large wheel wells though.

I wouldn't go that far, after 20k I'd go with the v6 accord coupe or rsxS. Pics give it a larger than life appearance, does look like an econobx on the streets which is fine for its starting price/equipment.

and
RSX-S is $24k also.
and
Scion starts at $16,500

Well lets be realistic, the accord lx can be had for 20.5k and the rsxs for 22k, neither of which have options for their model, so yea after 20k I would go with them instead of a supercharged version of the scion. Scion uses a pricing system like saturn, what you see on the sticker is the lowest price, except in the case of their options which is where Toyota rakes in the money.
I like the equipment and features of the interior, but something just doesn't look right about the exterior on the Tc.

I didn't really like the Scion site when I went to build em.

That site could be much better if they really want to emphasize the "personalize you car" theme.
