I don't think that color is anywhere close to what Scion plans to use for the RS. It looks way to close to Indigo Ink in my opinion. However, Scion did come out with the RS 2.0 xA that looked awful close in color to Indigo as well......please don't do that again Scion!

"Any other rs1.0 owners want to chime in?"

I will:
What the hell are you people talking about? What great marketing strategy!! Some PR genius @ Toyota said, "Hey, let's unveil the next TC RS...to people that already own one and bought one in the last year!". Der.

Yeah, great PR - not.
Let's market a relatively inexpensive car to younger buys with limited budgets and try to sell them another one a year later?

Paaaaleez!

Agreed that the image posted is not a natural photograph. Is it possible the OP meant "something that is really gonna happen" as opposed to "fan boi dream" when he said, "not a pshop"?

To me it honestly looks like the car is that color, and that IS supposed to be like the upcoming RS tC. The background is obviously not real, so I assume the color is what is meant by if its photochopped. IMO, I wouldnt doubt if thats the real color on the car!

I don't think it takes big ***** at this point to scan a tC, PS it blue, and say "here it is - I'm an insider"!
Come on - pretty much everyone now knows it's gonna be blue - nothing in that mockup that tells anything new...

And is this reliable source an actual person? I guess it's an RS1 thing, I wouldn't understand.

Well none of the RS1 owners seem to have any clue about it, so that kind of rules out RS owner inside info.

That thread I linked shows the DECIDED RS2 COLOR. I don't think they're really too close.

how about the fact the OP picture has a black license plate with scion on it. Do you really think they would ruin the front with something like that? Or is it covering a front license plate of someone.

How about the reflections in the paint of trees and all. DOnt you think Scion would have done professional photography in a studio?

How about the cars right headlight that is blurry where the paint meets it?
Why would a postcard sent to someone say Scion tC with an A on the side?
How about the cheesy background?
Why would a drunk dude give you a postcard?

the color of the original posts tC is not real, if it is then years of my life meant nothing. and my supervisor at work will be blown out of his mind.
