You know you drive a tC when...
...you try to race every xB you see because you know its a sure win.

and dont even deny it guys hahaha i cant tell you how many tC's try to race me. keep the post going i think ours is at nearly 11 pages now, you got alot of catching up to do

 

:D

 

HAHAHA


...you hate people who push the radio cover too hard


...you think 17s should come stock on everything


...if you have a nickname for "tC" (the tick, too cool...etc.)

 

.. you have actually layed the front passenger seat flat and reclined the rear passenger seat back and taken a nap in your TC at a carshow because yoou stayed up till 4 in the morning cleaning it.....or you just did it because you felt like it

 

...when your passanger goes 'will this all fit' before you pull down the back seats.

.. When your car looks like it has 3" lowering springs after loading 750lbs of laminate tile in said space.

.. When you look at other cars and say 'yeah...the tC inspired that design' even if the car came out before Scion existed.

 

... when your friends ask wut kind of car you drive and you simply reply back "tc"

.. when you drive to every damn walmart looking for the robo-tech scion tc toy and get your hopes down cuz they dont have it

.. when have two spair leds, you think about adding them to your cup holders :D

 

... you decide to trade it in a year later because its not what its all cracked up to be...

 

^^^^BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....damn box owner.......

when u drive passed nathans, walmart or any other local mall at around 930pm lookin for a meeting......

when u figure out like 2 years lata that there is a sensor on the passenger side dat yurns off and on the passenger seatbelt........

when that damn beep beep beep beep beep gets on ur nerves so damn much that now u put ur seatbelt on no matter wat car u drive if u never did so before!!

 

ohhhh two more......

when u look at xb's and wonder wat the heck does dat one has that dis one doesnt that made dem get it....

when u feel good cuz u got the best looking model out of all three scions!!!!

 

when you went so far as to actually assemble the little fold up paper tC included with the first Scion magazine, and display it on your computer monitor at work......
when the screen saver on said monitor is a giant photo of a tC.....
when the mouse pad used on said computer is also the Scion one from the magazine......

oh and most importantly, when you purchase said Scion magazine on ebay, just to get the little fold up car and mouse pad......

 

when u tell urself u will never ever ever ever get a car that lits up amber inside

 

i do hate the amber one.

 

^^^^ yeah i know who doesnt!!!!...thank da lord for the led swappers......dont u think scion would have gotten the hint by now!!

 

...you get dirty looks from old ladies out walking because your car whistled at them.
...you don't have to turn off your headlights when you get out.
...you hear "is that turbocharged?" any time someone new rides in it.
...you've been driving a manual for 7 years and still bump the limiter when gettin' on it in 1st.
...you catch yourself cruising at 90 MPH on your way to work.
...your sunroof doesn't always want to shut.
...you have to put your car into 3rd before you put it in reverse.
...it seems like most of your 3rd brake light is missing.

 

...when you were one of the first people to get it, and then realized everyone and their mom now drives one! (for those who have had their cars for over a year)
...when you realize they look like a 4x4 unless they are signifincantly lowered
...when you realized they screw your front plate into your bumper even if you ask them not to (bad times)
...when you've realized the keys get pushed all funny after using it for a couple months (For those who have 04 - 06 keys)

 

haha so glad to know that im not the only one who does that!

 

you know you own a tC when....

1. you call your family and friends every day for the first month to tell them how much you love the car. and the only reason you stopped was that they threaten to kill you , otherwise.

2. when the world seems slow under 100 MPH.

3. you continually have to get a high speed balance for your tires b/c you get a bounce at 100-105.

4. you framed a scionlife t-shirt of a tC(to preserve the artwork).

 

....when your co-worker smiles at you in the first few months with lovingly and understanding eyes for your passion towards your tC....but eventually as the seasons pass and pass and pass by those tender looks start becoming more and more compassionate and wild looking

 

~ You know you drive a tC when the ladies tell you how much they love the reclining back seat

 

lol, so true..

From the name "tc", the whistle my intake makes, and the gear whine, I get that question all the time.
