    Default new ride... the bubble.

    upgraded from an auto teg with a ton of miles to a manual tC... comments/concerns/flamers welcome. try to keep it nice, though! future plans are new wheels, go lower, lip kit, cf hood and hatch.

    shoulda stuck with the teg.. if you were gonna upgrade you shoulda saved longer and gotten something nicer/faster to spend your $ on.

    BUT then again you are a girl, so thats a pretty nice car for girls..i just hate to see guys driving them.

    Congrats on the ride! Looks just like mine except for the Enkei EMX's and lack of a lip spoiler.

    I agree. Fuck driving what everyone else in the world is driving. If you have any car other than an Integra, Civic, or 240, then you're good.

    I just think you should stay away from all that carbon fiber crap. Later, QD.

    Congrats on the new purchase! I almost got a tC a while back. Fun to drive and the look pretty nice IMO. I just couldn't stand the dual sunroof thing. Anywho, the aftermarket is pretty nice for those cars so the possibilities are limited only by your imagination and your wallet...purse...whatever.

    Good luck!

    Congrats on the upgrade. I would not have chose a Scion though. Whatever makes you happy though.

    Yes I did. My comment was not intended to start anything, I said her car is not my taste, but nevertheless congratulations. Obviously my car isn't your taste. Then again it is my car.

    Imo it is a nice car for all the options and price . Plus there is alot of aftermarket parts for these . My personal fav being the supercharger for it . But the mods you want are a good start .
