Default Scion tC RS2.0 Official Package

Here's the official rundown of the package taken directly from the vehicle inquiry:

http://www.releasethethree.com - Click For Pictures!!
Scion tC Release Series 2.0:
Blue Blitz Mica Exterior,
RS Stainless Steel Mesh Grill,
17" x 7.0" Alloy Wheels with Satin Finish,
Alcantara Seats,
Pioneer Premium Audio with iPOD capability,
Pioneer Subwoofer,
XM Satellite Radio with 3 months of free service (available only in the 48 US Contiguous States),
Driver and Front Passenger Seat-Bolster Side Impact Airbags and Overhead Front and Rear Side Curtain Airbags,
Individually Numbered tC Release Series Badging

From what I can see, price of the package is indeed $1960.00 although it is not labeled as such on the inquiry.

For what you get, that price is certainly more than reasonable. I figure it to be about $2500 worth of stuff if you were to do it to a regular car.

ENJOY!!

Let the orders commence!

-Alex

Alcantara seats is treated suede so it doesn't stain easily. Its much more expensive than leather. and the good thing is your butt doesn't slide around when you go around corners. I love em...

It'll be nice to get one here! We got our first on on today's allocation. Will be here very early April.

Some good pics might turn up the interest on this RS.

Its kinda like that... but I think the STI is still cloth, i'll have to check back on that. But alcantara is basically suede.

It is the 'man on the moon' more than anything that makes them roll out so quickly. Least that what I think!

Scion tC Release Series 2.0:
Blue Blitz Mica Exterior,
RS Stainless Steel Mesh Grill,
17" x 7.0" Alloy Wheels with Satin Finish,
Alcantara Seats,
Pioneer Premium Audio with iPOD capability,
Pioneer Subwoofer,
XM Satellite Radio with 3 months of free service (available only in the 48 US Contiguous States),
Driver and Front Passenger Seat-Bolster Side Impact Airbags and Overhead Front and Rear Side Curtain Airbags,
Individually Numbered tC Release Series Badging

are they just using the stock 17's only a different color?

sounds like they are getting away from performance, and are going more for the Ipods/ upgraded stereo.
it will be interesting to see this.....
