TORRANCE, Calif., March 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Scion, of Toyota Motor Sales,
U.S.A., Inc., announced today that the second limited-production Scion for
2006, the tC Release Series 2.0 (tC R.S. 2.0), hits dealer showrooms beginning
in mid-April.
The 2006 tC Release Series 2.0 will come in a brilliant Blue Blitz Mica.
This limited edition tC features a stainless steel mesh upper and lower front
grille and 17-inch alloy wheels that come with a satin metallic finish. The
tC's only factory option, front seat-mounted side airbags and front and rear
side curtain airbags, is standard equipment on the R.S. 2.0.
Inside, the tC's front and rear seats are trimmed with black Alcantara(R),
a suede-like material that provides passengers better friction grip and is
more commonly found in luxury or performance vehicles and on aftermarket
racing seats. The tC R.S. 2.0 comes standard with a Pioneer Premium AM/FM/CD
audio system with iPod connectivity and color-changing LED display.
A Pioneer six-inch subwoofer with 35-watt maximum power complements the
upgraded head unit and is tuned specifically for the tC. This compact
subwoofer is mounted in the under-floor storage area, keeping it out of sight
and leaving the cargo floor clear. This tC also is equipped with XM Satellite
Radio and comes with a paid three-month subscription, wherever XM service is
available. An individually numbered brushed stainless steel badge completes
the uniqueness of this vehicle.
Only 2,600 units of the tC Release Series 2.0 will be built. The tC
Release Series 2.0 model will carry a manufacturer's suggested retail price
(MSRP) of $1,960 over the base price of the tC. The base MSRP for the tC
starts at $16,300.
A 2006 tC Release Series 2.0 will be on display in the Scion booth at the
New York International Auto Show.

In general, the whole thing seems pretty weak. My girlfriend just picked up her xB RS3 last night (badge number 1346 if anybody cares), and all the extras on hers makes the tC RS2 look absolutely tame by comparison. Just my .02.
