I AM THE NEW SCION ACCESSORIES MANAGER AT MY DEALERSHIP .. AND WANT SOME FEED BACK FROM TC OWNERS.. I AM CURRENTLY BUILDING A 2008 TC WITH 18" TRD WHEELS AND A FULL LIP KIT WITH THE PEDISTAL SPOILER AND CARBON ENGINE COVER, WITH THE 4 PIECE GRILL CRAFT GRILL AND TRD EXHUAST.. BASICALLY A REALLY GOOD STARTING POINT FOR TC OWNERS.. ANYTHING WOULD BE OF INTEREST TO TC BUYERS TO OWN SUCH A CLEAN TC ?? ANY THING ELSE THAT TC OWNERS WOULD LIKE TO HAVE WHEN BUYING .. GIVE ME ANY FEEDBACK YOU CAN AS TO WHAT YOU GUYS LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING A NEW SCION ??? THANKS BEN

 

 

i would like all that stuff, but no way at dealership cost. You can go almost anywhere and beat dealership prices

trdsparks.com....

 

 

Stop righting in CAPS.
I personal hate the pedistal spoiler, i'd rather get a lip spoiler or nothing at all, and i hate the grill craft, a vrd would be preferred

 

^^ Fixed.

Anyway... like Jiggaman said, you've picked out some really nice parts, but don't buy them from the dealership. Check out the Classifieds and Sponsored Sales area of this forum, you'll probably find what you want and save a lot of money in the process.

 

^ D'oh! I didn't realise where I was getting it from until after I reloaded the page. Fixed it now.

 

Ben says you are welcome.

 

no spoiler and no graphics and keep the oem head/ taillights. no weird color schemes id. lime green and FM. and if ur puttin wheels on it, u better drop it. and i think ull have a nice car.

 

TRD coilovers. Lose the grillcraft set.

What color is the car?

 

no pedestal

for a clean tc off the lot
you should drop, tint(legal tint), ground fx, lip spoiler, exhaust, vrd grill (not fig) stubby antennae, swap out the 08 tails with 07, but keep prjectors, full lit red tbl
debadged tc logo, blacked out scion rear scion emblem.

cf engine cover is a waste, since it looks like you wont be upgrading the engine parts. so putting cf cover on a stock engine = lame.

interior, replacement colored led map and dome lights, weighted shift ****, replainted guage bezel and waterfall center console to the color of the outside tc body color.

for clean look,

avoid
1. pedestal spoiler anything on fwd car
2. any large body decals and scion logo stickers

 

well.. i know why his caps lock was on.... assuming he's typing at work.

but yes.. please take notice and remember to turn it off please when typing posts in forums.

you gotta be more creative than just slapping on a bunch of accesories onto a vehicle...

now most times most dealerships' show vehicles are useful in showing a potential customer what accessories they have to choose from.. and they get to see it in person vice a picture in a catalog..

however most times, eventually... that showcar itself will become very difficult to sell as the amount that dealerships mark up for all those accessories installed...

is absolutely ridiculous.

 

damn that would be a really clean car, but coming from a dealership, its gonna be really expensive and probably wont sell

 

agreed

 

ok guys caps lock is off .. and no i am not buying this car .. i am actually the new scion accessories manager.. i am going to be selling this car for about 23,600.00 or so havnt got my price sheet yet.. but want to know feedback on what you guys look for when buying .. i have accounts with tire rack, mrr , mackin, 5 zigen, five axis, trd, and many others .. so i can trick it however, so what i am looking for is what types of stuff you would like if u could buy it and have it financed in .. and not have to spend as much cheese out of pockets after the fact.. and could focus on adding more once bought .. let me know .. feedback is great and sorry for the caps locks.. its fixed.,

 

What would make me buy a tC that's "unique" for $23,600?:

No rice please.

Suspension
LSD
Turbo
Exhaust
A color that's not available in "stock" form (Burnt orange).

 

IMO rims and drop it, exhaust , ground fx and maybe the lip spoiler , some interor accesories like a shift ****, pedals, etc..

 

well i thought about dropping it but if someone wants to buy it and doesnt want it lowered then i couldnt take the springs off.. which puts me in a bind at the the dealership .. i would have to hold them up and order them the same thing without the springs.. but i think the lip kit with the lip spoiler and trd 18" wheels alond with trd exhuast and intake and carbon or brushed dash what u think ?

 

i think it would look nice, but don't focus on performace , because most people like other brands better than trd (mostly because of the price). Also i don't kow if u could do this, but if you could get a s/c on it, i think it would sell.

 

yeh i can get almost anything i want on them .. my dad owns the dealership .. and has turned this department over to me .. so i can supercharge one .. but i dont want to get stuck with it.
