Scion tC
Until recently, the tC was the star sports car at Scion, but with the arrival of the FR-S, the front wheel-drive coupe has been relegated to more of a bit part. With a 2.5-litre 4-cylinder (from the Camry) paired with a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic, the coupe boasts an updated look for 2016 and a reliable drivetrain.
