biglilsteve: Your car looks great. Too bad more people with Crimson tCs aren't posting.

It's been rough, man. I took a look at the list of members with this color on the "when did you get your tc2" thread and none of them seem to frequent this forum. Sigh.

I know everyone knows what the stock Crimson tC looks like, but I thought I would post a pic of mine out of pure excitement. anyways. I will be picking this up from the dealer on Wednesday after they install my foglights, and TRD exhaust, lowering springs, and spoiler. I have also ordered the TRD cold air intake and short shifter, but i guess that scion isn't going to release those parts until later this month...
I am trying to decide if I should leave the stock rims on the car, or put on my 17" Konig Unknowns. What do you all think?

Pic's not working man! And don't worry, the thread doesn't specify it needs to be modded...just a port for proud owners to show off their rides!

And please leave the Unknowns off. It's a smaller rim and has a sort of gaudy and non-sporty (IMO) styling.

I can't wait to see the pics with the TRD goodies on!

You didn't mention tower bar nor sway bars...those will do more for the handling than anything else you've mentioned. Due to budget restraints, I can't get it all at once either. So, probably no different from everyone else here. I replaced the OEM tires with X-Ice2s and now winter is over so I need summer shoes. That is why I'm doing the wheels next. I chose not to do the TRD exhaust because a test drove a car with it on and I was very underwhelmed by it...I will be doing the TRD brakes though.

I just sold my 1st Gen. tC recently and the wife's car is due to be replaced soon. The more I see these, the more I try to push her to consider this car/color!

OK...now I've got something to show...

If you go to my garage, I've got more pictures of this car and other mods I've done to it. https://www.scionlife.com/forums/gar...Cornot2tC.html

Will post up pics of mine soon. Not much done to it yet except removal of A pillar vinyl and 15% tint all around. Fingers hurt just typing this from pulling the vinyl today!
