Default Ordered my tC a few days ago.

Scion tC
Manual Trans
Silver Streak Mica

Major Accessories:
6 Disc CD Changer
Sub
Auto-Dim Mirror
Spoiler

Misc Accessories:
Various Cargo stuff (mats, net, etc)
Floor Mats
Bumper Protector
Blue LED
Racing Pedals
(I have a kickass shift **** from old car I'm putting on myself that matches)

Total was only 19158. That is incredible. Dealer told me 2 weeks. He just called me today and told me they just got a Gun Metal Gray one in and gave me first dibs on it if I wanted it. I told him I would wait for the Silver and he told me no problem.

Can't wait. Don't think I'll be adding much aftermarket to the car, but here are the initial aftermarket stuff I'll be installing:

Cold Air Intake
Slight window tint
UV Tint for Roof (just leave the shades open at all times)

That will probably be the extent of my "modding". It isn't much, but one of the things I loved about this car was the price. If I was going to add a bunch of stuff to it, I would find it hard to justify I have a pretty good camera; I'll take pics in a couple of weeks *crosses fingers* when I get it.

I didn't know the tC was available in Gun Metal Grey. Are you sure that it's not Flint Mica?

That thread states that the ones with side-curtain airbags are on backorder. He doesn't seem to have gotten that.

tonester- the roof has a film on it that blocks out i believe it was 98% of the UV rays. Might save you some money...unless you just want it to shade you a bit too, then just tint the top too.

Welcome to the boards! We'll be expecting pictures in the future. Oh and, where are are you from? The moon? Mars? a location in the profile would be nice. =o)

Well, I live in Baltimore, MD so it's a good place to buy cars And no, no curtain airbags.

I agree. We don't seem to have the same 3 month wait as everyone else here in MD. I put a deposit on mine last Friday, and it'll be here next Wednesday.

BTW-- which Dealer did you go to?

Glen Burnie Toyota (its just south of Baltimore)

I put 500 bucks down, ordered it, and they tell me 2 weeks. We'll see. Can't wait, though.
