i would go honda civic ex....sedan...who wants a two door....its hard to get anyone or anything in that backseat...go sit in one of each....you have to find the car that fits you..scion's eh i dont know much about them..but i know about hondas...we just bought a fit and a civic...its our third civic..and the resell value is high...and unless you plan to drive that car for the next ten to fifteen years....i would go with a honda...
