The only thing I don't really care about is the sub, but that will be easily replaced.

So why all the griping, you can't have it all!!

I agree with you. I wouldn't save a bunch of money if I would have gotten a stock tC and get those things later. The security is ok along with everything else, but I just wanted those 18s like the RS1. The sound system is much better than the stock w/ 10 inch Bazooka sub. The whole sound system is upgraded. Also, like you, I am first in line for my RS2.0. I'm very excited to get my RS2.0 no matter what. If the special RS2.0 wing spoiler is good, I may have to get it with the car.

Everything is good so far on the accessories list. Things I had hoped for was 18 inch alloy wheels, special RS door sills and Pillar appliques, and Strut Bar.

as i said the RS2 tC is great for a first time tC!

the spoiler would just be the pedistal/lip painted the same blue color.

and how do you know that the system is beter than the stock + sub? granted not much would make the stock system better, but a factory 6" sub THAT much better than a factory 10"?

Wow! +2500 price tag...it may be out of my budget! I may have to go back and just get a Nautical Blue instead. I hope that won't be the price. I was thinking more along the lines of $18K.

$17,640 2006 tC Auto
$650 Side Airbags
$1310 is what the cost of the release package appears to be. I doubt you can get any without the side airbags...

this package is not worth $1300+. the RS1.0 was $18,200 and it came w/ 18 in Enkeis (which was a $1565 upgrade by itself) and a whole bunch of other stuff. It was only a $500+ package and you got better value for it. If this is true, the RS2.0 is a ripp off!!!

My calculations may be wrong, but I got the $18,200 from scion's website. So $17,640 - $18,200 = $560
