It was time to move on to something else. I wanted more power, a manual trans, and really didn't need the extra space. The tC price is amazingly reasonable for what you get.

Looking good GF! I like the color as well, looks good on a tC. Do you have any plans to mod it out?

Nice! Looks a lot like a more affordable replacement for the now-discontinued(?) Celicas.

Awsome car greenfire....A close friend of mine got one and she loves it...too cool.... Those rims would look awsome on my Vibe... let me know if you ever want to sell them...I've already hit my friend up and she says she'll never get rid of them..

the toyota/lexus/scion dealership in town is one of my biggest clients. i was there this week and looked at a very nice one, price is great at $17K loaded! but, i still love my LGT better.... tc doesn't have awd, only 2 door (not good for me), and mine comes stock w/ 250 hp turbo. yum!but, if that was out when i got my vibe, i'd have been ALL over it! it still is a NICE NICE ride! plus the a/m support is amazing!

Good lookin' car greenfire. I'm not the biggest fan of grey, but it does look good on the tC. Also, those are some nice looking wheels.So, the Lexus IS 300 wasn't in the budget?

it looks like a cross between a tiburon and a G6.with the 2 front driving lights from a mustang GT...would have stayed with the matrix,but thats my 2 cents.lol.or even better would have went with a cobalt ss sc.now thats bad a$$.

It was warm that day, but I was not wearing shorts! It must of been an optical illusion. But I must say your did a good job of finding that reflection Joat.Thanks for all the compliments everyone. Reynoma, yea the IS300 just wasn't in my within financial means. And you know whats funny, when I went to pick up my car they had a pre-owned one in the show room.As far as modding it goes, I do have plans and will do a little at time. Rumor has it that the Supercharger may not be out for up to a year waiting for CARB approval.So anyway here is my wish list...Window Tint (not to dark)TRD springs and TRD shocksTRD rear swayTRD short shifterScion rear spoilerScion door sill protectorsScion mud flapsScion body kit (too expensive)TRD supercharger (if it ever comes out) Ohh and yes I still have the Jeep! (Me and my unique vehicles )
