Default Just got it!

Well i just traded my 2009 xb in for the tc2! I didnt really like the 1st gen at all cause they looked too much like chick cars, but this one looks more aggressive haha. But here she is:

Quick questions tho. First does anyone know good lowering springs that have almost the exact feel as stock? I like how the ride feels and dont wanna lose it, but still want it lower. Second my dealership didnt give me/come with the usb port for the ipod like my xb2 did, is there any kind i can buy from walmart? a link will be appreciated . also what the hell is with the one reverse light? haha thanks!

Glad you like it. As far as I know no springs are out for the tC2 yet. Shouldnt be long though. If the new tC is off the Avensis platfrom springs from the much better looking 1st gen! But i really dont know if they would work.

1st gen tC suspension isn't carry-over to the new gen. Take a look under the rear of the car and the suspension setup is like the 1st gen xB with the spring and shock separate.

Did you go upside down on your loan to get that tC2? Or did you have your 2009 xB paid off?

Yea...The Fog Lights go in the side vents!

U on Crack?...the Trunk Lip makes the car 200% better looking for the rear of the car.

S2000 antenna? Yes, I posted the part number there. The antenna is not a shiny black like OEM, more of a matte like natural rubber.

^I agree with this. TRD shocks and springs will give you a close to a stock feel with a moderate drop. Btw, was there a reason you didn't go with white again?

dont know, really like silver. kind of tired of white. on a side note, kind of ____ed that the damn dealer had to put on the front licsense plate. was taking it off today and noticed that they screwed the screws in too tight and left rings on the paint. ____.
