Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
Well, it's kind of a long story...

When I was driving home from work one day in the spring of 2010, I saw a tC stopped in front of me at a red light and thought it was a pretty sweet looking car. I had never taken notice of them before and didn't even know what it was. I checked out the emblems on the back of the car and later Googled 'Scion tC' to find out more about it (this is why I refuse to debadge my car - if the owner of that car had done so, I'd probably be driving something much less awesome). At the time, I was still driving the first car I ever bought, a 1990 Buick Century, but she was slowly going downhill and I needed to find something more reliable. Just for fun, I decided to check if my local Toyota dealership had any and that's where I found this RS 6.0 and immediately fell in love. Looking at the price, I knew it was clearly out of my budget but it was fun to dream about. By some miracle, it was still on the lot at the end of the summer and even better, it was on sale! Fortunately, I had managed to save up enough money for a decent down payment and on September 30, 2010, I was sooooo glad to be able to bring her home!

I think this photo captures the blue color a little better. You really do have to see it in person to appreciate it. I haven't done any mods yet.

At the dealership in June 2010 shortly after I found her and immediately fell in love with the color (the blue looks a little greenish in this pic though). After looking at the price tag, I figured owning a car like this was probably just a dream but I worked really hard all summer to save up enough money to make a decent down payment and luckily she was still there in the fall and my dream actually came true. Still pinching myself to make sure it's real, LOL.
