I think that would be a great idea but if they do that...the tC will end up like the GSR or Civic. Most stolen vehicle ever.

yea but im sure no one wants to steal a geo, you know why? Because the parts for the Geo are useless, however. Parts won't be useless for the tC if they are switchable between generations. I doubt the parts will be switchable since the parts arent switches between any of the scion generations.

I just hope the suspension will be interchangeable. Be tough to get money for new coils...

suspension?.....I think engine parts/exterior would be more worth it. I wonder if their going to change the chassis.

There was a tweet about that "big reveal" too...
Scion will be unveiling a New Dimension at the NY Auto Show on March 31st. Get the widget to countdown to the auto... http://bit.ly/9DS1R8
So rumor is... expect to see this "new" tC worked over for the auto show. That is, modded like most the other debuts have been (think IQ at last year's auto show). Expect widebody, wheels, etc.

If any of the dealers are going for the preview make sure you say hi to me. My name is Ted

See you there Ted. And for the rest of you. Become a friend of our Scion Santa Monica Fan page on Facebook. I'm planning to do mobile uploads from the show.

Those specs sound nice, although I wonder if they can put all that in and still manage to keep the price as competitive as when it first debuted or even as it is now. Still, wouldn't mind the new engine and transmission upgrades.

Im thinking that the new tC will be RWD. It would be the biggest shocker ever. But then again, that would just smash the FT-86 so it most likely will be FWD. I wouldnt mind FWD.

Edit: I mean if you think about it, Tanner and Gushi drift tCs. They get all this support and good input for the transformation, maybe Scion will surprise everyone. Nobody has any legit information on the new tC other than very minor insights of a possible engine upgrade and 6 speed.

This is true no doubt about engine and tranny and no doubt that it will be FWD. The only thing people really don't know is price and what it looks like. Well some know what it looks like it's just hard to explain so pics will be a thousand words.
