Alrighty guys, Im getting a tC somtime this week or next week for my first car, bare with me here, . Im really stressing on a White or a Flint Mica. What color keeps clean, both look beautiful for me but im having some final thoughts on it.

Also, I got some money to spend at Scion dealer. Right away, what should i put in it? Intereior/exterior. Maybe some cool Eye Candy, some other things.

What do you guys prefer here?

Thanks,
Sikotic

 

super white.

it was my second choice behind nautical blue.

as for things you might want to get at the dealership... the trd sway is nice, the floormats are a must have, the cargo liner is pretty good etc etc

 

Everything that you can get at the dealer is online at a much lower cost. Check out www.trdsparks.com for good deals.

 

FM has it's own cult... if you want to join.. sure..

but i prefer the SW.. looks much cleaner imo. it was my first choice of color but it wasn't available when i got the car.. and i couldn't wait.

take your time and don't rush into a money spending craze for mods. and buy everything aftermarket if you can... buying the car as bone stock as you can is the best option.

even adding factory options afterwards will cost less if you purchase elsewhere.

 

Flintmica FTMFW! haha get SW as a back up color...and yes get the floor mats...suprisingly bare bone stock does not come with floormats

 

yea.. i got bare bone stock..

 

Do black rims look good on SW??

Anyone got some modded SW pics?

Flint Mica... just a step up from Black (sand pearl) from being the worst to maintain. I consider it a good "compromise." White is probably the best (next to silver streak mica) for hiding swirls/scratches/dirt.

Anyways, though, you should get Flint Mica... but who knows why I would say such a thing...

Actually, get the SW. It's pretty nice

(plus it makes the already overbought FMs a tiny bit more exclusive )

 

I have a Flint Mica tC but wish I should have bought a SW tC instead and paint a layer of pearl on it to make it pearl white, add on a silver carbon fiber hood....it's sweet.

 

Super White i just got mine and i love it! black and white theme looks good too

 

FM then again why wouldi say such a thing

 

Super white is definitely the way to go if you want to do any modding. Gold rims, black rims, gunmetal rims, whatever. They all look good on a white car. If you tint the windows, black out the headlights and taillights, and put some black rims with a chrome lip on there, it'll definitely look better than a flint mica with the same modifications. I've seen both in person, and flint mica looks really bad. In pictures, it looks good, but don't let those deceive you.

From the dealership, get floormats. And from the factory, consider the side/curtain airbags and iPod stereo if you have the cash.

 

agreed ^^^^...anyone here like vinyl's on the side of the car?

 

Go for the blue!!!

depending on how much you want to spend at the dealer.... I would get side curtain airbags b/c that cant be bought outside the dealer.

 

Most people don't know like vinyl graphics... but to each his own, so if you like it, go for it ;)

 

SW.

 

FM sucks, dont get it.... oh wait a minute...

 

blasphemy!
