^^ Saber, your right RS3 = spec

 

I just notived you dont get and engine cover on the spec according to the sheet on pg7. Thats kinda wierd. So you spec owners is there anyhting covering the spark plugs then?

 

^^ Nope. its wide open. U can get a cover if you really wanted to or fab one up. I still don't have a cover.

 

thats crazy. I bet Dr. Isotope or jjos1 make out well selling spark plug covers to the spec guys.

 

if they made a RWD for that price then it will sell...

 

^^true but then i wonder how much our insurence would go up being a RWD car

 

So I contacted scion about the spec, apparently the discontinued it for 2009.

So I am going to have to try to find an 08. And I got an exhaust ticket for my honda the other day and I am so sick of it, I decided im just going to sell it immediately and I'm shooting to have the scion by christmas (that way I can ask for parts for it haha).


Palmdale was sorta nice a few years back, its a totally different town now. Its getting really ghetto, everyones movin up here from LA, inglewood, etc... a lot of section 8 homes are going up out here. crime has increased a lot. my fiance and i are gettin outta this town after she finishes her nursing programs. so in another year or 2.

I see your from washington... state? correct? what part? I was born and raised in the vancouver/portland,oregon area. We are moving back up there after school.

 

Huh? Regardless of RWD or not it sells because its a lower price point for the same car without all the factory non-essentials. I bought mine for 15k out the door brand new and I bought aftermarket wheels. Those stock wheels are not worth 2k to me neither the sunroof. If you really wanted the stock alloy wheels, you can get a whole set for less than 300 with tires...

Im sorry but thats a retarded comment Coolwaterz.

 

wow never heard of spec... the dealer up in wa said they only had one model

 

Yeah with my Spec I bought the base model 17"s and no one can tell the difference.

Think of the Spec as a Civic DX...but with more, way more.

 

None of those features are worth 2k to me either. I can add my rims, spoiler, window tint and the wiring and materials I will need to put in my system for that 2k I will be saving.

You also lose cruise control... but honestly I never use it. And if I am driving for a long distance we usually take my fiance's 05 corrolla.

If I end up missing cruise control that much I can always install a aftermarket cruise control system, I'm an installer, that kind of stuff is way easy.

I cant wait til I get to go to valencia in a few weeks for my girls dr appt and finally talk with scion about ordering my car!!!!
