1) Just because I only have said # of posts, doesn't mean I don't read all the threads or have my own opinion. I've been reading this forum everyday since my join date.
2) It's a wonderful platform. When have I EVER said otherwise? I know the car isn't one-dimensional, just like how I don't bag on tC drivers for driving a Scion. My initial comments that sparked this whole debate was because someone said it has enough power and isn't underpowered. You said it youself, you drive the wheels off of your car (kudos), you gutted it and modded it. But, how old is your car? How long did they develop your car for and how much funding / resources / etc. was used (compared to this car)? You're defending a car that you can keep up with in your existing ride. I like the frs' looks over a tC and it's RWD, but why are you excited to change to it if you have an equivalent race car? Interior?


If you read all the said post, why are you beating a dead horse? The tC has only been around since 2005. I have a 2006, so not that long but that didn't stop the Aftermarket for it. The aftermarket for the tC is massive and rivals all of the other cars that have a long standing backing.

I want a DD....so that my tC can go full blown racecar. Once it's caged it won't be on the streets anymore. I would have like a GC 2.0, but when I found out it's 2.0 turbo and RWD has a hard time beating a stock Scion tC, I axed it off the list. Use to have a 350z and love those, but they have heating issues when pushed on a track, and again....a bit on the heavy side.

I love that the FRS/BRZ/GT86 will only weigh 100lbs more than my tC without me having to take a single panel out of it. So when I go to mod it, I know what to expect from additional power in combination with it's weight. It should be all the more a blast to drive just as my tC is for me.
