#1825 of 2033 Re: color [podunk503] by autoboy16 May 07, 2007 (5:27 pm)
Replying to: podunk503 (May 06, 2007 3:30 pm) I dont have a tC but i would never recommend a silver car to anyone. Silver makes the car get old and boring really quickly! The tC looks best with the Indigo blue, flint mica(with a lip spoiler is perfect), and black. In fact, that black cherry is starting to appeal to me too!   Also, i wouldn't get a spec tC, a manual tC, or supercharged tC. Toyota should give this car an optional v6. The old 3.3, the new 3.5, or even just to turbocharge this engine. Those interior lights and stuff, I'd pass on to.   If i still wanted the tC (Why buy a tC when i can get an Acura TL or TSX for the same price?), I'd get an automatic flint mica tC with lip spoiler, fog lights, window tints, and maybe leather seats. Dont forget the rain-x!   -Cj Replies to this message: aladdinsane (May 12, 2007 9:08 pm) mackabee (Jun 06, 2007 5:21 pm)

#1827 of 2033 Traction control 4 tC? by aladdinsane May 12, 2007 (9:16 pm)
Toyota seems to be turning on to electronic stability/traction control for its other two new '08 Scion models. Is it possible that VSC (vehicle stability control) will also featured as an option with the '08 tC as well?   Peace!<- -
#1828 of 2033 Creaking sound/Driver's side by dandulao May 21, 2007 (12:57 pm)
I searched and I didn't see any similar questions.. I have noticed on 4 different occasions that when I turn off the engine, I'll hear a horrble creaking sound on the driver's side rear of the car, as if a spring is being releaved. This happens as I'm still sitting in the car by myself. On a few occasions, I've had a passenger sitting in the back seat, and when they get out of the car, of course there is creaking sound as they step out, due to the weight, which is the only thing I can attribute it to. (maybe wear and tear on the springs???) Otherwise, It's very frustrating. I've only had the car for a year and it's very troubling. I thought I'd inquire here before I take it to the dealership
#1829 of 2033 tC used with supercharger vs new without? by steady321 Jun 01, 2007 (7:53 am)
Help!! We are looking to buy a Scion tC for my soon to use for college. We are looking at both used and new. We will be looking at a used 2005 tc with 25.5K miles and it has the supercharger. Private seller asking a smokin' price compared to what I have seen out there. Obviously the new one would be the base model with no add ons. Question: Is the supercharger worth it? Does it increase wear on the engine? Insurance impact of the sc add on??? Does it require the use of premium fuel vs regular? Is there any major differences between the '05's and the new '07's?? I'm almost sorry I showed my son the used tC ad because once he saw the car had the supercharger, lowering springs, and a Megan Racing Full exhaust, suddenly the new tC didn't look that appealing. You input would be helpful!!! Replies to this message: gambuto (Jun 26, 2007 2:42 pm)

Hey people!! Yes its been a while since i've posted here... But I'll cut to the point.   For 2008, Scion gave the the tC projector headlamps, new tail lamps(similar to the ones they offered at the dealership)and a price increase. Still, no rear wiper, other interior color, or 5-6AT. The good news is that they have added a lot of interior accents like the door handles and door grabs. They are silver instead of grey.   Scion changed the colors a bit also. Black cherry pearl is now called Crimson, and yes, Flint Mica is still there. When will toyota offer more exciting colors? I've seen better colors on the lexus ES. As of lately, I think that the tC would look good in a gold color with a beige cloth interior. In fact, a gold would be much appreciated from me as black is growing old really, really fast.   If we get lucky, toyota may introduce the scion navigation system from the xB(gen2) into the tC. The tC increased msrp by $600. But to my understanding, they made the side airbags, dual auto windows, and the optional subwoofer standard equipment.   The bad news is that because of the 2008mpg recalculations, the 4AT tC goes from 23city 30highway to 21city 29highway. The 5MT went from 23city and 31highway to 20city and 27highway.   For more information, checkout www.scion.com for details(wow that sounds like a commercial or mini insideline review )   Here is a link for comparison information between the 2007 and 2008 tC. Didn't I do this for the 2006 to 2007tC?         -Cj Oh well! I just love doing this!!
