the whole thing looks photoshopped...

with camera technologies these days people would think photographers would be able to take pictures much better then this....

Hard to tell at this point... I want to know where the pic is from.

Here's the article thoug:
http://thehollywoodextra.blogspot.co...-scion-tc.html

The second "chop" kind of kills it for me b/c it's not even close to what the picture is.

BTW... I'm going to move this to the Owner's Lounge and title it 2008 Speculation... since we don't have one of those yet and this looks like a pretty good start.

Looks like a bad scan.

And it's not nessesarily a profesional photographer that took the picture.

You beat me to posting this... could be real, could be fake. No way to know at this point.

it doesnt look photoshopped to me. I would consider myself a photoshop guru...it looks like a cell phone camera. Defiantly look like a 2dr coupe...and has some very tC-ish characteristics

If they get rid of the all glass top to make it not top heavy, get rid of about another 300lbs+, put a different motor in it, and make the hood scoop less out there i'd actually consider buying it. But i know that most of that wont happen.

That spy shot posted here looks horrible, but the other design shot looks much better except the hood scoop. Get rid of it or make it less "out there" and you have a good looking car. Toyota needs to quit trying so hard and do something completely different, its getting way, way too predictable.
