Does anyone have any information about this car?

I like it, but would perfer the scion badge on the front

snowbuddytC 10-26-2006 08:51 AM

ummm... that looks like the same car just with the AIT racing N-1 hood... and why in gods name would you wanna get rid of those little side vents on the bumper... those are great for CAI's... all you do is pop that little plastic insert out.

brownKIDDnate 10-26-2006 02:38 PM

its interesting...

ohcanada_00 10-26-2006 03:27 PM

nice find!

cessblood 10-26-2006 03:34 PM

the second picture look photoshop.

ehj 10-26-2006 04:03 PM

I think they're both fake.

WTF is the point of a hood scoop? I understand that the Celica used the scoop to cool the exhaust manifold, but the tC's exhaust manifold is closer to the radiator and not like in the Celica where it's nearly touching the firewall.

Its a corolla :(

oneil261 10-26-2006 04:19 PM

omg r u guys serious...... lol hahahah

bBlover 10-26-2006 04:21 PM

Someone posted this before but its nice to see it again. I think it'd be better w/o the scoop but that's just me. I don't know if any of you read the comments on it but "someone from Scion" posted that there's gonna be a refreshing and the tC is gonna have HIDs and LED tails.

IcetC 10-26-2006 04:23 PM

i think the bottom picture is a fake it looks like they took a regular tc added on the new camry front end and just made it fit, also looks like and intercooler in the bottom grill maybe their thinking of added a turbo?

Iamblahhh 10-26-2006 04:31 PM

turbo is a no no :no: unless you want the car to be jacked up in price over the 20k's

Tito_Cruz 10-26-2006 04:34 PM

it clearly explained that the toyota badged one was an "illustration"

trdtcpr 10-26-2006 04:38 PM

It was posted long time ago and came to the conclusion it was photoshoped!

Here is the proof:
As I said before this front end is very nice and I hope it gets done but I'm sorry to say it's a photochop and here is the evidence:

1. Same angle and background
2. Same wheels and I higly doubt those are stock wheels
3. No Stickers
4. Lexus Headlamps
5. "T" Badge
6. Caldina Hood Scoop

not this again..... someone lock this please...?

nwscionman 10-26-2006 04:53 PM

The way I understand it, as the various models process through thier respective shelf lives, they will be replaced with entirely new models, not restyled versions... I also understand the tC we currently see will continue to the 08 model year.. I have been wrong before though...

Yeah a thousand dollar headlight is what a "value" car needs unless Toyota can mass produce it by having a dozen 5 year olds in a sweat shop in China do that.

AgentRice 10-26-2006 05:57 PM

ummm ok so new headlights and fender and bumper n hood

hmm interesting

engifineer 10-26-2006 06:22 PM

Repost..... again. Photoshopped or faked in some way. I saw the top picture over a year ago claiming it was the 2007 tC. Lock please.

R2D2 10-26-2006 06:27 PM

Lockity Lock!

Here's the old post which was also locked so don't feel bad... :doh:
