Does any one else think that the Toyota Zelas front bumper (that comes standard) looks a hell of alot better than the usa version? hell ill buy just the damn front bumper or kit if it is one make it an option for the US that 5 axiz kit is ok and the trd kit is ok 2 but i want somehting more aggressive something mean. also has two trim levels wtf scion when is the us going to get all those options, where are all the products for trd like the sway bars and bbk. how hard is it to sell leather seats as an option? imo the release series comes with some of the options but if i had a choise of a release series over my black tc id keep my black tc.





Toyota’s UAE dealer launched the 2011 Scion tC at the 2010 Abu Dhabi Motor Show, only, it will be known as the Toyota Zelas in the GCC, and will come standard with an aggressive body kit.
The all-new 5-seater 2011 Toyota Zelas is powered by a Camry-derived 176 hp 2.5-litre VVT-i 4-cylinder engine, with 230 Nm of torque at 4100 rpm, front-wheel-drive, and a 6-speed automatic with tiptronic. The two-door coupe has four-wheel-independent suspension with MacPherson struts up front and double-wishbone rear, as well as four-wheel-disc brakes, vented at the front and solid rear. The car weighs 1425 kg and comes to a 55-litre fuel tank.

The Zelas comes in only two trim levels. The rather-loaded base trim comes with an 8-speaker CD/MP3 stereo with USB port and 6-disc CD changer, Bluetooth, keyless entry, cloth upholstery, manual a/c, power windows, folding electric mirrors, ABS, stability control, front and side airbags, spilt-folding rear seat, fog lamps, 17-inch alloys with 215/50 tyres, parking sensors, leather steering wheel with controls, rear spoiler and the body kit. The top version adds leather upholstery, cruise control, paddle shifters and smart keyless entry with starter button. Curiously, a sunroof is not offered, although a 6-speed manual may be available for order at some dealers.

 

everyone know the U.S. of A usually gets the short end of the stick, and not just the tc other cars also. I wish they would have brought the focus rs over but nope. I would love scion to put leather as a option.

 

Americans are cheap, if the car had all the options you want than people would complain about how expensive it was considering you only get 180hp. why not spend the money and make the car the way you want. your dealer should sell leather seat options.

 

The front bumper is the same as ours, its the "body kit" that makes it look different.

 

Yup, I saw zelas pics without em.

Looks like it should fit on the USA version however the rear body kit will not.


The UAE version also costs more...

tc is targeted towards broke college kids SO luxury is ignored/overlooked

 

haha yeah because of "Safety" and other bullcrap "regulations"
