haha... next you'll be saying is that the RS1.0 tC was a copy of neil tjin's tC... his car was a ninja red well before the absolute red rs1.0 ever came out...

it's just coincidence man....

well, technically speaking, the color WAS a copy - color code 6UI from the toyota vitz

but just as was said before regarding the abs red tc, i think scion really keeps an eye on some of the cutting edge stuff that's being done to the cars. After all, they are using modification as a selling point, and don't have a ton of money for research and marketing (imo, no flames plz). So when somebody pulls off something really cool, they bring it in. That's where most of the accessories now offered are coming from, and rumor has it that those OEM accessories will increase soon, being pulled from the creme of the aftermarket crop.

I'm thinking that the RS4 will have smartaz's suicide doors.
it could happen...

you know... now that i think about it.... it's a little more coincidential that the RS2.0 tC is a blue color.... neil painted his tC a skyish blue for the last SEMA...

granted, the sky blue doesn't look remotely alike to the blitz blue.... but it just being blue... brings up questions...
