Default tC models?

I read on consumerreports.org that there is a scion tC coupe TRD MT and a coupe MT. The TRD running a 0-60 time of 7.2 sec and the MT at 8.8. Is this correct are there 2 different types of tC's? If so how can you tell the difference between the two?

yea im pretty sure the TRD SC [stock] tC can pull a 6.5 on the 0-60. while the stock tC runs between 7.5-8.0 seconds.

I think thats a pretty fair estimate. Of course everybodys numbers will vary.
