I am glad I got my RS1.

I wonder if the seats are the same style as the standard ones just with Alcantara trim or if they're some kind of new design.

At least put on different wheels Scion... right now there is nothing special about that car

I like the blue. The red on the RS1.0 is so ugly. I am really surprised it will have stock wheels on it and not special ones. Overall, it's a pretty disappointing package

After finally seeing a descent picture of the RS2, I must admit, I do like the color (even if it is another blue).

Sorry, just curious here. Are you saying that b/c:
1.) The options offered are not what you think they should be?
2.) The options offered are overpriced?
3.) There are no aftermarket rims on here?

IMO, the options listed are a good value, IF that's what you are looking for. I know I would have loved to see this 3 months ago. I wanted a car a similar color to the 350Z or Mazda 3 blue, side airbags, and upgraded interior (which I did not end up getting anyways). I also was looking for the iPod capability, but this wasn't really much of a selling point for me as the other's were.

I know many of you are saying "It doesn't have rims though." Personally, I would rather get my own wheels and tires and sell the one's that come on here. Dealers/Scion price aftermarket rims/tires way too high IMO and (unless you complain like a ****) you don't get to keep the stock 17's (which I happen to like anyways!).
I guarantee you can find cheaper wheels/tires out there by searching on your own.

It's really not so much about whether you like it or not (even though I'm not crazy about blue, I do understand some people don't like red). Everyone's preference is different.

It's about making a 'special edition' car that has something other cars don't have. With 2 -3 other blue TCs out there, another blue is not so special. At least with the red, it makes the RS1.0 a little more special because there is no such thing as a red TC other than the RS1.0.

I posted this in another thread about the RS2.0, but my story was that I was telling some people about the new RS2.0, and when I told them it was going to be blue, most people immediately respond with, "Oh! I think I've seen it!", and then I have to explain, "No, not that blue, a different blue" and then they look at me like I'm stupid.

I'll put it this way though... if the RS1.0 didn't exist and I was looking to buy a brand new TC, I would probably go with the RS2.0 for the value. It would be worth it for the side-airbags, grill and custom woofer (Although...couldnt' they at least put an eight or 10 inch? Dang).

The RS2.0 should've been a color that's not already offered (Or any variation or shade of that color). Green, yellow, or orange would have been perfect and different and would stand out.

That's only if you have a dealer who rips you off. This is how it's suppose to work: The 'release series' is an upgrade package. Which means you take the basic car that you would get, add a few options, and that's your special edition. When I bought my RS1.0, it had the 18s on, and the dealer loaded the trunk with a set of stock 17s and I didn't even have to ask. That's the way it should be becuase I'm paying for the basic car (which comes with 17s) and then paying extra for the upgrades. I sold the stock 17s a week after getting my car. That's what a good and honest dealer should do.

I don't car what kind of car you buy, if you buy 'upgraded rims' from the dealer, then you should be driving away with TWO sets of rims, unless the dealer somehow gives you a discount for the cost of the stock rims you're not getting. I once talked to a cop about the very same thing, and he told me how he walked out of a VW dealership because they wouldn't give him the stock rims or cut the price for not giving them to him. That's smart.

I agree 100%, but it happens... hence why I put this in my post:

It seems a lot of people on here didn't get there 17's, and (though I haven't researched much) I wonder just how many RS 1.0 buyers recieved 2 sets of rims.

{Raises hand in the air}
Well, at least ONE who didn't even ask or complain. lol.

Ok, I get what you're saying and you're right about that. Unless you know to ask, chances are the dealer will rip you off.

This is weak. I expected more on the RS 2.0. I'd rather get and XB2.0 since it gives me two TV monitors in back of the headrests.

Scion should have added a dvd monitor, 18 in rims, cold air intake or supercharger, sway bar, a spoiler, filter, and a few other mods. They could have at least gave you a different body kit.

amen. from the looks of it, people will probably mistaken it for a typical nautical/indigo blue tc with the emblem removed. nothing special here to claim it as rs2.0. at least change the exterior so it stands out from the rest of the tcs, even though pricing has to go up.
