Default Later on Scionlife, SOLD THE TC!!!

I will stop in from time to time and update in a year when I decide on my next ride.

But for now this is goodbuy. I sold the tC today. Bought it October 17th 2005, Sold 11 July 2008. Put 24,844 miles on it and enjoyed everymoment of it.
Met alot of good people and did alot of cool things to it. It was sad to see it go, but I had to do what I had to do.
I got $16,000 for it, plus I sold the Nav unit, exhuast, and gauges seperate, so total I got about $17,200. (I payed 17,000 for the car and had $16,000 in aftermarket into it )


Later on yall:

Pics from today, new driver taking her away! (hopefully you will see him around here)

Yeah but because of the damage from shipping when I had it shipped to guam, the bodykit needs repainted, so he will probably just repaint the entire car. I am expecting to see something pretty damn nice. I mentioned a few color schemes and he liked that. He had a 3000GT hooked up before this, so I think he will take this car even further than it is!!!

Thanks. I am headed to Iraq again and with not having a car payment, I should be able to pay the adoption off in 10 months. So when I get back from Iraq next year, it will be either a IS350, a BMW 335I sedan, or an EVO X. Not sure if they are going to sell the EVO X here on Island, so it will probably be the IS, I would like to stay in the toyota family. I do like the twin turbo setup on the 335I tho!!!

Thanks man. I always tried to post facts and not just opinions and to keep it civil!!
I really love the 335I, my only issue with it is I liked the last style body better, so its hard to look at the newst and like it alot. But I love the twin turbo and I love the interior!! Other issue is, I dont want to break $40,000 on a car. That would push my budjet, and the 335I will break 42ish. So that leans me towards the IS350.

Yeah he got a good deal. He new it too. He was looking at a used 06 for $15,500 with nothing done to it and 40,000 miles. He had planned to hook it up, so he said it was simple to decide.
I am not positive. But we were told expect to be training with the army in March, and that Combat school is usually 31 days. Plus a week in between of transition, then our week of convoy training in Kuwait, then our movement up. So I am not positive, but I sometime mid next year. Dont even know where we are going. I will let you know tho!! PM me where you are ehaded once you know.
