I find beating RWD/AWD with a FWD to be fun... Gives the WTF face...

I'm about 2secs faster than my boy's tC.



Someone should have passed the memo to the 370z and the STI that they aren't suppose to be getting whooped up on by a FWD Scion tC...oops..

I own an 08 got it brand new, and well im not heavily into cars and so on but as someone mentioned its a very easy car to work on, good DD and safe as well

It might not be the fastest but with abit of cash and some good old hard work it can be quite quick a few guys i know have boosted TC's and well they love it, ask Dragonitti! haha

But over all its a nice car, good gas milage, easy to mod and comfortable

I Love my tc and all ive donw is lowering springs and rims and it looks quite nice

No idea based on how it drives but I definitely like the older model over the newer boxier looking one just based on aesthetics.
