So, i went to the Toyota dealer yesterday to buy a Camry. My wife an i went on our test drive, but i felt something missing. We were on our way in to start paperwork when she pointed out the iM. I was hesitant at first until i sat in the driver seat. The seats are unbelievably comfortable. I then see the Pioneer "infotainment" center, and i knew i was going to like it. We took it out and i was incredibly surprised at how it drove and handled. I haven't had a small car in a long time, and have never really been the Scion enthusiast. The fact that it gets great gas mileage and looks great are two of the biggest selling points for me. I would recommend this car to just about anyone. Glad i took the leap. hope to talk to you all soon. Thanks.

Congrats! It is a beautiful car!

That's quite the transition, since i'd expect someone with Camry money to be more pulled towards the camry, but I know for sure those who like the Corolla will be more likely to convert over to the iM

The Camry felt...monotone. I knew heading into the dealership after driving the Camry i wasn't fully sold. I felt like something wasn't right. The iM reminds me of the Volvo c30, which has always had a soft spot in my heart. to be honest I've always been a hatch guy, ever since i got my GTI, i was hooked. it did get me into tons of trouble but i loved it. I know the iM isn't a v6 GTI but it's still fun as **** to drive. Every time i walk past it, i look and can't look away.

The Toyota Camry has a lot of the same characteristics as it's predecessors so that may be why it felt a bit monotone.
Congratulations on your new iM! A few pictures would be great too. We love pictures.

Glad to hear you like it. With the single trim thing, is there anything that you feel is missing from the car?

@Nick_J: Welcome to the forum! The Scion iM is much nicer in person, especially the low roof line that gives the hatch a sporty stance. =)
