"Black cherry pearl is now called Crimson" It is a different color not a name change. It's darker than the black cherry. The auto windows were standard before. The nav system is optional but not backward compatible. The mileage is still the same, only the numbers changed. Sort of when the ASE decided to change the way they measure horsepower. Your car still puts out the same power as before but now it's stated as a lower number.

Hi, I am getting ready to buy a Tc and was wondering if people had problems seeing out the rear window with a pedestal spoiler. I have been in accord that has that problem, but I sat much lower in that car. Is it more expensive to add later?

Replying to: subout00 (Jul 05, 2007 5:00 pm) I have an 08 tc with the pedestal spoiler. It is a great look with very minimal obstruction. I have no problems seeing out the rear window. Looks great also. |

Hey Everyone, I just put a deposit on a 2008 Tc (Very excited!!) yesterday, and I asked them to also add an auto-dimming mirror. I was quoted a ballpark price for the mirror of $450, which I found to be quite high. I am wondering if there is anywhere that I can go to read up on accessories which I can take to someone else for installation. I'd be interested in adding modifications down the line, but I'm not really familiar with how any of that works. I imagine it would be cheaper for me to find an auto-dimming mirror on my own (who knows), so it is something I'd like to look into. Does anyone have experience with buying accessories outside of the dealer? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Replying to: drlieber (Jul 15, 2007 12:53 pm) They should have given you a firm price on the mirror including installation. Go to www.scion.com and then to build your Scion and look at the pricing for the tC accessories. I wouldn't recommend an outside source to do this. When the tC first came out there was an issue with installing this type of mirror on cars with the side curtain airbags. Since the bags are now standard I believe the issue was corrected. Doing an outside install and something going wrong may void your Scion warranty. Mackabee |

Replying to: mackabee (Jul 29, 2007 7:40 pm) I'm driving Acura RSX'03 base auto, with 110K miles on it already. Test-drove tC'08 base auto. Impressions, in comparison to RSX: - low-end torque is there for sure; - at higher RPM, engine felt like losing steam a bit; - steering felt too light, with uncertain on-center feel; - suspension felt softy, so handling wasn't really good. I'm curious, what Scion/TRD mods would have improved steering and, most important, "stiffen up" suspension and improve handling. thanks in advance - vickat |

According to the September issue of Motor Trend, the tC will now have Stability/traction control for '08. Anyone know if this is true?  Sometimes MT can be off the mark with new specs. Thanx... Peace<-AladdinSane--
