Remember how we were all disappointed when scion released the crappy axle back exhaust for over 500 bucks, well now on build your own tC, there is a borla CAT BACK exhaust option for only 499. I am stoked.

Same thing. The trd exhaust for the camry was also a borla exhaust.

errr... when'd this come about?

yeah, where did u see that?

yeah, where did u see that?

I also saw that the other day while playing around with the configurator...I thought other people knew here about the Borla cat-back exhaust. It will be one of the few parts I do get with the car...

yeah, where did u see that?
Scion.com, build tC, exterior, there you go. I am so happy because the cops down here are REALLY cracking down, people are getting tickets left and right for exhaust noise so this is very good news to me. I really wanted an aftermarket pipe and now i have it under warranty.

on "build your Scion" it only says "Exhaust system." it does not specify it's a Borla system. and from the animation, it looks like a axle-back. and the list price is $525. I really don't know where u get this info. My zip is 61801. what's your zip? maybe that has something to do with it.

where did u see crappy axle back for over 500?
:?:

Try Zip = 33620 to see the Borla Exhaust, but it doesn't really 'show' it, but it does have it on the side list for $499, but that seems a little cheap dont you think? :roll:

So much for Scion standardization. Not only do people in "less hip" areas of the country get the cars later, they don't even get the same equipment. :roll:

Yeah, I do find it strange that Scion would offer differ options depending on your state/area. But then Mazda does the same thing. Guess all the car companies do this?

Kevin

Guess all the car companies do this?
Nope. I've never heard of it from other brands.

wow, this is amazing, I used 33620 instead of 61801, a different set of options appear in the "build your scion"!!!!

I did see the Borla cat-back using 33620. however, using that zip I don't see the subwoofer, the sport pedal, the interior light, and the shift knob....

I also see the document fee of $299 using 33620. for those people in FL who needs to pay that fee, I feel sorry... I think that's just a totally BS fee...

my guess would be that dealers have access to the build your scion function. and they can modify the options appearing on the screen.. what do u all think?

so whats up with the pure pricing policy? :roll:

Really? What does Mazda offer that's different, anway?

Also, another person in 61801 area code... cool.

anyways....when i first got mine back in last june, i paid everything the most expensive price because of the stupid pure pricing policy.....later they drop all the prices for accessories...

John_Keats, are you from Urbana?

Document fee thread (recomended reading, lots of good info): http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12773

The reason there is a price difference and different packages is because many of the southern states are operated by private distributors (GST and SET) . These two distributors supply the vehicels to the dealers and can set their pricing and accessories independent of Scion corporate. Pure Price is still alive and well.

Not exactly like Scion but the local Mazda dealers were not going to get any NAV systems. I would have had to special order or go to Northern VA/DC. Also the same on some of the color schemes on the Mazda 3.

Kevin

so it would seem that everyone has the tC exhauts blues. Not to worry, Precisionmuffler.com is on the job and is awaiting for our tC to come in for our latest axle back. Any volunteers :twisted:

I got the 34695 area code. Yeah, i posted a thread a little bit ago that corrected my error cause i talked to a person from scion who said that the borla cat back is not a factory option, however the dealer in my area may be offering it.

TRD exhausts (axle backs) have always been built by borla. ie Camry/Solara, Tundra, MR2, and so on. But Borla makes a decent exhaust. I'm probably going to try and get JP Performance to build an exhaust for mine. Headers and all.

I have a pretty simple question. Are there a lot of brand name exhaust systems (greddy, apexi, etc) that are legal in all fifty states, or at least Florida? cause a lot of people around here are getting tickets for having a loud exhaust.

not the trd muffler for the xA and xB, this time magna flow took the rings on this one and made the trd muffler for the xA and xB. Hopefully I will join in and get to greatness like TRD. :lol:

Cops and courts can pretty much do anything they want to. If they don't like ya or just feel like f***'n with ya they can write a fix it ticket. Ya can fight it tho. Find people who have and ask for help. Be warned, you don't always win. :wink:

In a few minutes I'm going to look at my camo xB which came in last night. I'm in the Southeast so the options list may be a little different as already described.I ordered the cold air intake and the borla catback exhaust. The only other option I got was the shade thing that covers packages.

I was very clear to my sales lady that I DID NOT want a loud high pitched exhaust. She assured me that that she had heard this setup and that it was neither loud nor high pitched. She said there was a little bit of a throatier sound. Those two options added about $1,000 to my car's price so I hope I get what I asked for. I'll know soon enough.

Wish we had the option available already. . . Oh well, future modding.

I also see the document fee of $299 using 33620. for those people in FL who needs to pay that fee, I feel sorry... I think that's just a totally BS fee...

99336 = "Del, Proc & Handling $515" :cry:

99336 = "Del, Proc & Handling $515" :cry:

Delivery, Proc & Handling is different then the Document fee. The price you should pay is: $15,950 + Del, Proc & Handling + Document fee + Options + Tax, Tag & Title

What does this have to do about the exhaust systems for the tC?? :?

ditto. thats what im wondering also.

Nothing, just an off topic question and answer. It is not the first thread to get off topic you know. :roll: :)

the other question is why is there different accessories available for different area codes and can we get them here in michigan. I have one of my customers who saw the borla exhaust and wanted to get that in thier tC here in michigan. What can i do?

Yeah so sad but true. So, back on exhaust, I think we need a dual set-up!!! :D Anyone else!!??

not exactly practical (at least a true dual) on a inline 4 banger, leave it for the v6s.

if the dual exhaust is done with one muffler and two outlets it can be done. There is pleny of room and make the car sound nice!! :D

duals on a 4-banger is retarded. :roll:

i agree, dual exhaust on a inline four is bad idea. a dual tipped exhaust would be better then the dual exhaust. personally i just prefer one exhaust with one tip :)
