Something to keep in mind - on the listing you have there, major structural damage and 3 owners have been reported. 3 owners in 5 years is never a good sign, but these cars are fast and fun, and last forever. Get it inspected for sure!

A Scion is mechanically a Toyota. Scotty has customers who have Scion TCs and they are happy with them. The only reason the Scion brand disappeared was simply because it was a marketing failure.

They are independent cars. I don't think they have any serious issues.

It is still a Toyota product and 2015 MY is 4 years into that generation (2011-2016) so most bugs/issues will have been resolved by then.  The 2.5L I4 is the true and tried engine also used in the Camry, RAV4, and Lexus ES350.  

2015 MY also had the fewest issues of that generation:
