Hey everyone, I know I have not posted on here in forever... literally..... well I know the last thing I posted was months ago about all the issues with my tC and it going in for work and all this... well its now sept... the major electrical issues are fixed.... car still is scratched all to hell... they have worked on it a few times and actually made it worse... swirl marks on the black paint are bad and it has scratches all over it now.. worse than before. The car has been in the shop for two weeks now bringing the total time its been in the shop since I have owned it to over 2 months total. The car is in the shop right now awaiting parts on back order to replace defective ones on the dash, doors, moonroof, the hatch and all the other lovely areas... It took many many calls to Scion corp being hung up on, and forgotten about, and not called back... being on hold for an hour ect ect... finally this cool supervisor up there got an inspector to come from the regional office and look at the car... and what happened? geez I wonder... he actually confirmed all the issues I was reporting even though NorthPoint was saying they didnt see any of them and well it couldnt be perfect it wasnt a Lexus. So the car sits in the shop still.. I am in another loaner today due to the wonderful loaner NorthPoint gave me two weeks ago having a major issue.. I got pulled over Sat night for driving a car with expired tags from July 1st and no proof of insurance.. which is required in AR. So I got a ticket, which NorthPoint says they are gonna take care of.. I asked for proof once they have it cleared up and want a letter from the courthouse saying it has been cleared up and stricken off my record since it wasnt my fault.. it was NorthPoints loaner car and their fault... anyway I spoke with the GM of NorthPoint... went over all the issues with him and about the ticket... you would think they would have offered something for all my troubles... only thing he offered me was if I wanted to trade my car in he might do something on the trade value.. yeah go figure.. you think I actually want to do that?? not with NorthPoint or Toyota.. trust me I feel the game here... lets screw him again with another car and more debt hahaha.. no thank you... anyway so there it is... funny eh? if you remember me and still my car isnt fixed... and still its in the shop again... I pay 355.00 a month for my car payment... I think they should atleast give me that much 355.00 x 2 I mean if they would have fixed the cars issues at first we wouldnt be here ... would be..... anyway so thats it... hope all the other tC's are doing ok..

 

post pics of ur car.

 

my cam died so I have no new pics of it... and since its been in and out of the shop so much in the past month I barely see it... or drive it....

 

damn.. i would even say take pics of it when its at the repair place.. or at least visit it.. read it stories.. make sure its ok...

 

i remember the first few weeks after i got my tc.. the dealer had it more than i did

 

when i picked my tc up.. it even had a small ding in the drivers side door the size of a dime

 

and then when i brought it back to have them pull the ding out... they scratched my rear bumper..!! how crazy is that!

 

and thennnnn... when they fixed that.. guess what?

 

they scratched another part on my bumper.. which ____ssed me off beyond belief.. but the paint guy just buffed it out..

 

i would never recommend buying a tc or any car from Toyota of Wilmington.. in Wilmington NC. they suck goat nuts

 

but i really hope things work out for ya bro.. i feel your pain.. sorry for all the posts.. but my comp is acting up and freeeezinggggg alot.

 

Oh I am sure my tC will rise from the ashes... once they get done with messing round with it.... its got alot of stuff in the works for it.... Kenwood System, Konig 17's Blackout's, LED Euro Conversion Tails, Magnaflow Custom Job, K&N Cold Air, Lowering Springs, GT Spoiler, Body Kit, Leather Interior work (Red & Black) oh yeah that bad a$$ machine will rise again..... and Scion can go F themself's... after all this it prooves one thing... the warrenty dont matter.. they dont fix the crap anyway so who cares... I have been holding off on tricking the car over the warrenty and it doesnt matter so... when my car comes back.. and the bad issues are fixed.... yeah its on...

 

yea my latest mod.. was just updating the headlight bulbs.. from stock to luminics.. which this cool kid patrick told me about .. from the myspace scion group

 

i did pure blue for my low beams and jdm yellow for my high beams.. i love the yellow so much.. i think i might opt for the low beams in yellow next. totally 100% street legal.

 

now i wonder since u mentioned the LED tail lights.. how much would the dealer charge for them.. and how much to install. i like them... they remind me of the g35 tail lights.. with the led's

 

I dont know I found them online for 255.00 but I am getting a conversion done on my tails that looks better
