sorry but my dealer keeps giving me the run around about the date the tc are coming in! I cant wait for it to come in. I been waiting for so long and every week same story, its coming next week. Then I say u said that last week.

My local dealers keep saying the same thing have no clue at all. just answer one question if you can, if every1 does then we will have all of them answered and we can bump this for everyone so it will not be asked in seperate threads

A lot of these questions were already answered in previous threads. Try searching maybe you can find many answers.

Alright dude, my second day with the car, and here are my answers... opinions included

Dummy guide to tC
160hp, does that mean faster then celica GT?
NO, it just means more horsepower, but also more weight. But the tC is not sluggish by any means

how tint is the windows? will I have to tint it my self?
No tint on the windshield or front windows. Don't tint it, or else no one can see you driving it.

How big is the speakers in the car, want to know so I can take stock out.
Tweeters in the doors, looks like 6.5" all around

How is the Cd player quality? wil I have to take it out and replace it?
CD/MP3 player works great, I like the "tC FEEL" setting

will the scion look wierd with another deck in it? insted of factory?
No, you just close the freakin door over it.

is the deck XM ready? so I dont have to get a stupid display just for xm radio?
YES

is there an option for leather seats at the dealer? I saw them on a pic but never saw an option for it.
Check with the individual dealer...Mine offered it for an extra $950 through an outside vendor.

whats your favorite Rims that scion provides? will you be putting after market?
F that dude, the stock rims are ****. Feel free to go bigger if you like. No after market here. The TRD 18"s are sweet though

Adding thechrome pedals make it look nicer?how about exaust, upgrading it to trd is it better and how many hp?
Get pedals elsewhere, you can get them cheaper. TRD has a good sound, but only like 3-6 HP. Wait for Borla, or a greddy cat back.

please specify warrenty since all I see is 36k tranny and 5 year rust and blah blah blah.
Read the brochure

adding aftermarket void any warrenty?
Maybe, depends on what it is. I expect a NOS system would pretty much void anything. (Including a WRX)

how about the aem gas cap what does that do? only looks?
Dude, besides looks, it holds your gas in. It also gives the loser at the station something nice to look at while he fuels the ride. Its not worth it.


whats scions next car?
I would guess something with a D in the title...like xD or even tD

can u fold down rear seats?
YES, and they recline.
how big is th trunk bc I want to add custom sub box and amp in there and then have room to put grocerys in?
YES, plenty of room for all your crap.
