Its like a cross between the Matrix and a BMW. I think they look good. Just not for me. I need a mans car, not a boys car. Gimme a 5 series Bimmer or a Lex GS. Straight ballin.

Haha... I liked the tC so much I already got rid of my Evo for one. I know I change cars a lot but this one's a keeper, I love this car inside and out. The torque is incredible for it's weight and power. I added every option and the supercharger is getting installed once it comes out.

Here's a link to my post on the Scion forums...BTW...I have a lip kit, OEM, but better looking than the one posted in this thread to me.

Since the pics I've replaced the audio system with JL, Sony, and Pioneer. Thing sounds incredible.

yeaaa.. the one i posted is an aftermarket lip kit... the oem one looks much more cleaner...

I have some more pics ... one is the OEM lip kit and the other a prototype bodykit in the making

imo.. the kit in development makes it look more like a jetta/audi/bmw

I never really noticed it before, but the more I look at it, the headlights look very similar in design (not really shape) to the new BMW 5 series headlights.

Yeah no kidding man! lol, I dont know if I woulda ridded the Evo8 for that, but hey, once you get the supercharger on there it may all be worth it than. Those cars are sweet lil things, especially when dressed up nicely. Was the Evo8 costing you to much or what? How much is insurance for the tC vs the Evo8?

Payments were as follows... $333 month for loan, 255 month for insurance, $100 a week easy for gas....

that equates to 988 a month just to drive a car? i don't think so. I make about 1500 a month after taxes and im in school full time

The tC is reliable, damn quick, great on gas, looks good, feels EXACTLY like an A4 when you drive it. My mom had an A4 before her benz and my dad said it felt just like that car. The car is amazing plain and simple. Nothing better for less than 20k. And I'm saving about 450 a month for an 05 with warranties and complimentary oil changes.

Yeah, only if horse power and displacement grew on trees...haha. I'm j/k man. You can't ask for much more. This car has too many good options as it is and good power for its price. If I was in the market for a car, the TC would be in the garage instead of the civic.

Thank you!

I finally passed 500 miles so I can start driving a little bit more agressive now. Went to the car wash today and people a lot older than me with suv's and and one with a bmw commented on it sayin how nice it was. You guys should see this thing in real life... So beautiful....

I've seen a few, and I'm tellin ya...I woulda kept the EVO. Not flaming you but just bein honest.

Comin from a rotary guy, I think the high cost of maintaining a vehicle is worth it especially on the canyon drives.
