Default RS 2.0 Scion tC

Alright, since the last post was locked I decided to start a new one (after not being able to find one!!
Here are the Facts:
- Alloy Satan Finish Rims (I believe its the stock rims with a satan finish)
- Stainless Steel Mesh Grill
- Bazooka Sub. (But it supposidly takes up no trunk space and is somewhat "hidden")
- Pioneer Premium Sound (also do not know whether this just means i-pod capability or different radio! (sorry)
- Side Curtain Airbags
- MAYBE different seats (one fact that was said to be changed at fist but not on the recent nots I have gotten)
- 3 months of XM Radio

March Production/April-May Arrival

COLOR: BLUE BLITZ MICA...this is a Japanese Domestic color, basically looks like the picture that was posted in the last RS 2 speculation forum

After all the cool stuff with the xB RS 3.0, I am not that impressed. But I do like the color.

Weak

Not a very special color, nothing really cool added.... But guess what, they'll sell every single one they make. So what do they care.

blue blitz looks nice... however I tried to find it on a toyota, because I think their little truck comes in that color, but toyota's TERRIBLE web sites strike again. For the love of god and everything holy, drop FLASH crap for something useful, like CONTENT. please, relay this to toyota. Thank you

Before people say "Why don't they put the TRD supercharger/springs/shocks/swaybar on it?" If I recall, TRD parts are considered aftermarket and only to be sold after the vehicle is purchased. In other words they are not factory parts so Toyota is not going to put them on the car at the factory. It can only be a dealer-installed or otherwise purchased seperately from the car itself.

Anyone know if that is false?

Ya, the color I know is right. But it seems like there's some confusion on the accessories and I just want to know who "really" has the facts.

The www.releasethethree.com site is owned by Toyota (based on the domain name servers) so it seems to be official as it can be.

I was the first to hit "reply" but by the time toyota.com got my goat 10 others had said the toymotor truck(ish thing) was a different color.

Sorry about that. But the color looks close.

My statement about the websites of toyota being a plague upon the land stands.

But, if one googles on that color, it seems as though some of the hits are scion dealer's preference systems... .
