i was thinkin that since scion sponsors mtv's pimp my ride they should do a special and pimp out a tc before its released. scion would be able to get the word out that the tc is commin. i think it would reach a lot more young people cause its mtv. if more people know about the tc it would do good for scion sales. but really tho i just want to see a pimped out scion before it came out.

Yeah Pimp my Ride is more or less a self mockery of itself... they've got some good creative ideas and interesting a/v stuff but they're just rediculous with excess...

But what do you expect, it's MTV.

all of the cars on pimp my ride are pieces of SH*T...why would they pimp out a brand new '05 car in perfect condition? i think its pretty pimp already :D

thats not the theme at the show at all to mod new cars, its to fix up beaters. i doubt that would go well. but u could try

Chrome... Thats all I gotta say..

A small quote from the show...

"Here in Cali, you GOTTA have the chrome..."

:roll: <--- thats as best as I can defend against that statement...

I rather have a rock thrown at all my windows than some chrome rims...

I swear I'm gonna send a email bomb to MTV if they start putting spinners on cars... They're probably too cheap to do it, but the day that they do... I'm gonna email them about the total lack of taste that show presents....

im just sayin that they should do a tc to get the word out on the street since scion is sponsering the show. instead of chrome they should throw on some racing harts or some shumachers. drop the sucker and trick it out with a/v stuff. it would be good publicity for scion and the tC. thats what i ment.

HA! West Coast Customs and MTV NOT do chrome? Thats just silly.

I personally love the fact that not very many peole know about the tC. I dont want it to become super popular like the camry did or the hondas. Basically, I dont want everyone and their mothers driving the same car I am. that My opinion.

West Coast Customs does great work. That show is just about excess. They would never have a car like that come out of their shop. Have you guys been there? For television, its just about excess......yes, I agree some of the cars on the show look goofy, but it gets a good laugh, and probably getting some good ratings.

Okay, we all know from our own research that the TC will be one hell of a ride. I think it might be the next civic or integra or 2 door accord. Every single person I've shown pictures of it to think its a $25,000 car. When they find out this beast can be had for only $16,000 or $17,000 the line for the TC might equal the line for the Prius. I'm worried that its such a great car everyone will want one and they'll become overplayed.

I'm just excited for the first time I roll down the cruising strip we have up here and all the people at the beach or in the outdoor bars say "what in the world is that?"

Ahhhhh only 2 more months.

the kind of mod-ing you're wanting would best be done by Hi-Rev tuners on speedvision. I've seen a few compacts on two guys garage as well. I emailed them a few weeks ago about putting the tC (preferably mine when it comes out :D) on the show to showcase the new car. Still haven't received a response yet =\

Weeerd! That xB they had at SEMA was unreal!

Still haven't seen the show (one of these days I'm going to get TV, I swear), but it sounds pretty funny.

Xzibit's got screens in the headrests in the very backseat of his H2... which no one in the car would be able to see.

This is apparently so the people driving behind him can watch what he's watching. :x

Thats very old and played out tho.. He's probably the 230948234th person to do that... Now the first one to start putting screens UNDER their car so the people they run over with their Hummers can start watching....

I'd give them props to that....

The thing I don't like about Pimp My Ride is that they steal ideas, they say there ideas are all original (I'm refurring to the second escort they made look like a BMW) but they stole that from the Escort guys (I used to be one of em) he said on the show its never been done, several people have done it...its just the little things that bother me...not to mention X has this fetish with flames...could he be a flamer?...you be the judge...
