'07 tC 5speed with only 6,600 miles. Guy bought it, made six payments on it, then had to trade it in for an suv. His loss, my gain, I paid only 14,500 Interior's clean, has an Injen CAI already installed along with the TRD front strut tie bar.

Yeah I'm not crazy about the Injen sticker on there, it's kinda ricey and that's NOT what I'm going for.

hey guys, i've been looking this 2005 tC 1.0 (red) that has rear spoiler and carbon fiber b-pillar options and only 8200 miles. Dealer's asking for $16999...does that sound reasonable?

Hey guys, I just picked up a 2005 FM 5spd over the weekend, and so far it is awesome! I have no plans for mods anytime soon, since I have a 'project' car already, but it sure makes for an awesome daily. 34,590 miles and 12.8k from the dealer with a certified warranty, I couldn't believe it.

I pick up my 08 BSP tc on tuesday! it's my first car that's MINE and it was hell getting the financing. I know I'm going to love it.
All i got from the dealer was the advanced audio package to start, I'm not looking to mod it under the hood too much, what should be my first mod? I'm not sure if i want to lower it either, since i don't live in a city.
any help would be great, thanks guys.

hey guys...new to the forum. i put a deposit on a brand new 2008 scion Tc, will be picking up this friday. some questions for all you already tc owners out there...this is the first NEW car i'm buying and i'm really excited...but i'm having some difficulty with a few choices. 1st i'm 24, drove a del sol 5 speed si for the past 7 years and i'm considering getting a automatic, but i'm nervous because i have driven a 5 speed my whole life and love it. does the tc drive better at a 5 speed or the 4-speed automatic? is the clutch smooth? also i'm wondering if it is worth upgrading to the premium audio system or just keep the basic on? pedestal or no pedestal spoiler? white or flint mica? thanks for your responses everyone!!

^ get the 5 speed, its a bit cheaper anyway n u know how to drive it, the clutch is smooth. i recommend test driving it, keep the standard radio if u plan on upgrading it in the future. the pedestal IMO is a bit big for MY taste, i went w/ the lip. u don't want a bsp? a lot of ppl have a flint mica on here

had a black del sol...never going back to black. i live right outside nyc, with the weather we get there is no way im going back to black. i think im going with super white instead of flint mica. IMO the flint mica and superwhite look best with the wheel color.
