The RS Limited TC will be RED. Not sure if it's gonna be exactly the same as the XA or a different shade, but it will be RED. Release date will be right around June-August

errrrrrr, you will have to spend at least 4 grand to get a paint job that comes close to factory quality,,
may I suggest you just go buy a red car you like.

donate the saved money to a lovely charity.

I need to wait till my tax return comes before I get my tC, so waiting till next June is not much longer, but I like Flint Mica. But this is the Special Edition, not just the 2006 model, right? Anyone know what else is gonna be special about this edition?

No other details were released about the car as far as packages go. It will be a 2006 model and it will be a special edition car The yellow XB will be out a month or 2 before the release of the TC.

We're talking about the Release Series 1.0 (R.S) tC. Not the "special edition" crap thats going around trying to pull the wool over customers' eyes. The R.S include the Hot Lava xB and the Absolute Red xA.

That's SET's Special Edition tC. It comes in any color the tC is available in. We have a Flint Mica Special Edition sitting in the showroom. There are only 500 total and only in the Southeast.

ROFL...the paint job on these cars is worse then Maaco ....spending 30 bucks gets you a better paint job on our cars. My car before my tC never had little rock chips, or scuffs or anything, and that was a ford. The paint on the tC seems to come off if you sneeze to hard

I know. Rock chips in my hood are making me all mad and junk. Oh well, I'll get over it like the little rattles as well.

Special edition might actually make me trade mine in for a new one. Not sure though cuz I got to see the red. I refuse to buy a bright red car again. To eye catching for the popo.

Default be wary of much more stringent EPA regulations on paint

you will NOT get a better job in 2005 than a 2005 oem factory paint,

blame it on the EPA ,,,,, Gore is happy ,,, your paint is crappy


ahhhh and yes it will be crappier aftermarket, ,

PLEASE do research on this if u dont believe me but its true so there.
aaaaaaah
