No performance upgrades yet, im just seeing how comfortable im going to be with the payments before I start adding stuff on there. It lots of fun, and im told the manual (which I have) is a lot faster than the automatic.

saying something like this just proves you have no imaginatin at all and dont know what you are talking about
good job with the new car, a friend of mine just bought one and she loves it, and a steal for what they are selling those for!

congrats man, i wouldn't really mod it at all. unless you boost it you don't get to much. maybe do some retro HID, and some mild ext. mods. just keep it clean.

Thanks for the comments everyone. This car really is perfect for me after the Fiero. Passenger and storage space, good gas mileage, decent amount of power, especially with the manual tranny and its was fairly inexpenisve for all that it comes with.

The nice thing about Scion is that I can go back later and say..."yknow what, throw the supercharger on there and a wing" and theyll say ok and ad 10-20 bucks a month onto my paymants yknow?
Id like to get the supercharger someday, itll scream then =)

I don't know if the white is the best color on the tC but if you like it it's all good.

Congrats on the new car man!! I've always thought that the TC was quite a good buy, both from the "sensible" and the "sporty" points of view. The only real issue is that it's a bit heavy for outright performance, but, that being said, it's quite tunable and what with all the "stock aftermarket" parts that are available, you could be adding to it for years to come if you want.
Again, congrats, and as for bmw06m6, all I can say is that that was an incredibly aasshole-ic thing to say, and it doesn't reflect well on you at all.

The interior looks great. The car looks too fat for it's wheels, but it still looks good overall. Good choice. They don't have this car Down Under.
