Default RS 2.0/TCM Photoshoot for GRM (56k OK)

Hi all, just thought I'd share some quick pix with ya. My good friend JG, an editor @ Grassroots Motorsports, is putting a story together about Scions and the community surrounding them, so we took a few shots for the article. The RS2.0 is the Scion press car that GRM has for a few days... we should have a different one to take down to the Scion Dynasty meet in Orlando on the 23rd, along with my TCM. Anyhoo, enjoy.

Nice photo shoot, the pics look good as do the cars! Nice grill on the TCM by the way!

Is your box lowered? If so, how much?
Looks really good with the black wheels and red calipers.

About 2 inches lower on Tein S-techs. You can definitely see it in the head-on pic with the RS2 (bone stock.)

Yeah and they were around a quarter of the price

What wheels did you get for the RS2?

a few more...







Driving the RS2 back i had some thoughts...

Perfect shade of yellow, very crisp and clean... for our 2nd xB it'll be hard to decide between it and the Salsa Red (if there's any RS2's left to choose from...)

I'm SO glad I didn't get an automatic on mine. The exhaust on the RS2 only seems to punctuate the fact that you're not in the gear you want to be (at least above 40mph...)

The rubber gasket on the side skirts is white, not colormatched as on other xB's. Wonder why...

Definitely attracts more attention than a TCM Which can be a good or bad thing I imagine...

Sad to see it go.
