Damn those guest! My laptop is already slowing down refreshing!!! Almost time for my desktop!
I want them to have the smallest size wheels that will still fit over the large brakes. Hopefully 17 will be stock. I don't want to do 19.


What, are you on a netbook? I doubt it is your laptop and probably just the forum.

NIIICCCEE!! I like this one!

However, I'm going to have to invest in a life time supply of duct tape so I can cover that S-C-I-O-N badge in the rear!

Damn Toyota... you were almost there!

I think another reason they did scion in USA was because if it comes in as an Toyota, It will weigh more.

That's why there's a thing called "Bondo" LOL

Or it could be plastic plate like Celica (iirc)

Well because Toyota has a new reputation on the line, making economy cars with great safety features.

I am not sure if they do the same with scion, installing it with every safety feature... do they?

thus weighing less for the scion?

Don't need much tape to just cover the "C" and "O".

Wonder if the production version will be kinda like this and the stamped part turns out to be separate from the trunk. If it is, I'll lol hard

...Though I'm not sure, is it really separate or not? Hope one of the Celica owners here can help me out on that.
