Default East Tennessee Scions Unite!!

Hey people! I am looking for any and all scion owners in the Chattanooga area to meet up once a month and show up at the cruise-in that is held downtown Cleveland. I just went to the one last weekend and there are no good imports there at all! We need to band together and represent damnit!!!!! This is how many scions were at this show.


This is pathetic. We need to get together and show off our tC's, toasters, and xA's!!
This is held at the end of each month, contact me if you would like to attend next month.

Default car show

Weren't many Scions there, but I will be back next month. If they will let me back in. Had to argue that we were classy enough to be in their Classic car show ( much better than some of the junk that was there). Just my $0.02 worth.

Hey Sikokid, pretty nice looking tC. That black xB looks familiar too...
Is that you Mark?
Looks like you're doing some great representing for Scion down in Bradley County. I've got to do some repair work on my box before I'm ready to be seen in public, but let me know when the next event is and I'll make the drive (depending on the work schedule). Keep it up.

Default car show

The car show is the 4th Saturday of each month, set up around the courthouse for about a block in each direction. We got there about 3;45 pm and had to park on the entry street to the car show. Good for us, as everyone that came in afterwards had to "Gaze Upon Our Uniqueness".

Hey Sujeel you should reconize that tC it won your show! And yes it's me. I trying to get something going here locally. The show here basically shuts down the city. There aren't any prizes given but it is alot of fun. The problem is we catch alot of grief because we are imports and the old farts don't like the idea. We were told that they would let us in the show but that our cars are not very classy. So, basically we are trying to show them that we aren't going anywhere and we do have class by getting as many scion owners together for next months show.

By the way if you can hook us up with some banners or signs it would be great. Maybe we can advertise for you. We actually got really good exposure. There were alot of people interestedand asking questions about our cars. Let me know what you can do.

Count me in. I see alot of us scattered aroud but no one has put forth the effort to try getting everyone together, including me, so big props to you. Do any of you know of anything going on the 4th as far as shows? I know there is a pretty big car show in Soddy Daisy by the lake where they have the fair. But it's kinda like the cleveland show, alot of dead peckers with their daddy's dream car and nothing but wierd looks at that generic box. Just keep us posted on the cleveland show.

how about jon at capital, he and patrick are the ones who helped get my car and jon keeps talking too me about a sponsorship on the green machine. Maybe he can help get some name recognition for us. The next time I am in there I will ask him, he is getting the trd's and having them powder coated green for me so I can keep my extended warranty.

Hey man the powder coating guy that jon uses is the sh*t! He coated my wheels in bronze and they turned out very nice! He also did my brake callipers, a little pricey for those though, but once again a flawless job.

Dude don't powder coat those wheels! They look awesome like they are. You may also find that the powder coat isn't the same color green.

Default springs

I am having the TRD springs coated, not the wheels. Sorry that was a slip on my part. Do any of you know who can make a clean sub enclosure to fit where my spare was, I am looking for someone local?
