TOEVERYHOUR'S PROGRESSION - Updated 6/5 First Post
 
Figured I'd jump in on the band wagon. This is long, btw. lol

On May 25, 2006 I joined the Scion community with my new purchase, an RS 2.0 #128 of 2600

I soon got the mod bug and did the following to the car
:

New eyelids
35% tint
Debadged (put emblem on front grille)
Blue LEDs throughout
M3 spoiler
TYC tails
OBX shift knob
Carbon fiber dash kit
Door sills
Megan Racing Drift Spec exhaust

That winter, I purchased a ton of mods, including wheels, a full RS 1 lip kit, Injen CAI, Hotchkis springs, and Hotchkis F/R sways. Then plan was to install everything once the snow was gone for good... HOWEVER, on February 19, 2007 I was driving home from night class at around 9:30PM on the highway in the slow lane (right lane), doing the speed limit of 65 when a semi truck in the next lane over began to pass me and started merging into my lane without clearing my car. When we hit because I could not slow down in time, the car rolled a couple times and that was the end of it. It was completely mangled and the whole frame was shot. I couldn't even close my hatch.

On February 20, 2007, the car was deemed totaled and I put in my order for an RS 3. I drove a Camry rental for almost three months until my new tC came in (sad face).

Fresh off the truck on April 7, 2007, my RS 3.0 #1371 of 2500:

As for future mods for the tC I'm kinda stumped.
I don't know what else there is to do to it.
I don't wanna go Turbo, I already have a fast car.

So I have no idea?

SVicksTC 12-21-2008 10:45 PM

Drizz-OH 12-21-2008 10:53 PM

Looks awesome. My girl has a 08 white tC and was thinking about doing the panda theme too.

Eh, trust me, you don't. lol. I'm pretty broke. I've financed the whole Z for the most part, so I'm actually in debt. haha

The road is Avondale Blvd in AZ

Sciontistical_One 12-22-2008 02:42 AM

VERY nice... I like the bronze WORKs... black rims may be a little too "over the top" with the panda theme... overall, a very clean ride...

BlizZard 12-22-2008 03:24 AM

Clean Car!

:clap:

SVicksTC 12-22-2008 03:28 AM
