Scion doesn't make a Black Sand Metallic-- only black sand pearl.
Actually for the 08 it looks as if they changed the color to metallic...looked at 07 and 08 side by side in the sun and they are differant.......
As far as I know, some dealerships are calling it Black Sand Metallic, but looking at the VIN# and paint code (0209) it is exactly the same as Black Sand Pearl and it shows up in Scion's national database as "Black Sand Pearl"--

I also think your stickers are not that good looking and it ruins the appeal of the car. But if you like it then that's fine.

Default 3 Days Old

Just traded in my 1994 Celica for a 2008 Scion TC Flint Mica. I cried and cried the first day. Dang I sure loved that Celica. After a couple of days I still miss her but the TC is helping me to move on.

I think I am going to love this car. My first car was a CRX, my second was a Toyota Truck, and my third was the Celica. The TC is what would result if those 3 vehicles had a baby.







I love this website!!!!

Hey guys!
I don't own a tc(really hate the 08 models when they decided to go for the ricey ebay head and tail lights) but my friend owns a brand new 08 scion tc and I like the interior. Hope to learn alot from your community.
the first upgrade i did to his car was swap the sucky halogen projectors with tsx projectors. Now he sees the road better :D

Hi everyone!

I just got my 2008 Scion tC in Sizzling Crimson Mica with automatic transmission on October 13th. Just passed 150 miles on it today (trying to keep the miles low on it - will be doing a lot of long commutes in a few months!) Love the car though - it is my first brand new vehicle!

Nice upgrades sky! I think I might need to get the tint - Florida sun gets pretty brutal!

Zarco - I have been driving a 94 Corolla up until now! Still have it though - it's my "beater"

The tC is soo much cooler for school...er. I have some pics of it in my blog: http://grantspad.blogspot.com

Check em out!
