2006 Scion Tc 2.4l 5spd Greddy Exhaust, New K&n Cold Air Intake, New Tires/parts on 2040-cars
Baltimore, Maryland, United States

2006 Scion TC 2.4L 5SPD with Greddy exhaust, new K&N cold air intake, new tires and many new parts! I purchased this car with a salvage title and I have spent countless hours since October replacing many parts of this car. Below is a list of all parts I replaced and the prices. The tires are new Hankook Ventus HR2 size 215/45R17 which cost $325.00 to purchase and $100.00 to install. Overall, most parts replaced are new, some are used from Scions with low miles. The check engine light was on when I bought the car and I thought it was the oil control valve so I installed a new one. However, it was the VVT solenoid which I also replaced. Currently, the only light illuminated is the SRS light because the front curtain airbags are missing. However, all other airbags are in place. I recently had a Maryland State Inspection and this car has passed. I had to pay $426.00 to modify the exhaust so that it would pass inspection. I have mixed feelings about selling and I have decided to sell if I can break even. I am selling since this car is 14 feet long and parking is a huge issue in Baltimore City. This car is very smooth and drives extremely well. The Greddy high flow muffler makes a strong howl when accelerating and heads turn. The K&N cold air intake I stalled has added between 10-15 horsepower. The car lives around 90-100 mph and can go much faster. The new tires hug the road and the front end work I performed has paid off. Alignment was performed at Pepboys for $79.95 and includes a 1 year warranty (I will include the paperwork). This car corners like a dream and takes off with surprising power. This car doesn't make friends on the road and for some odd reason BMWs seem to hate this car. Note that all prices listed are for the parts alone. If one were to pay a shop to do this work it would've cost a fortune. For example, the rebuilt transaxles cost $130.00 to purchase but would have cost nearly a $800.00-$1000.00 for a shop to install. Also note that not all items needed to be replaced. for example, i replaced the outer tie rods since i was planning on getting an alignment anyway. As far as the title, I was informed by the previous seller that it was involved in a home fire claim. However, there are no signs of fire damage so I suspect that may have been some insurance fraud going on. There is much more to tell about this car and all items replaced below have a story which will take too long to go into here. Questions are welcomed. My feedback score is 100% because I accurately describe items and stand by what I sell. I took the time to do all repairs correctly since I had been planning to keep this car forever. I still may decide to keep it if I don't sell it for a reasonable price. I understand that the title was a previous salvage so the Kelly blue book value of $6907.00 for a car of this mileage with a clear title in good condition is an unrealistic value. However, I would challenge you to find a used car that has been rebuilt to the extent this one has, even used cars with clear titles. One last caveat, these cars have timing chains so you don't need to worry about replacing the timing belt!

Scion tC Release Series 10.0 is a limited-edition sayonara
Thu, Mar 24 2016We wish Scion could have gone out with a bang. But nope, it's yet another of the brand's Release Series models. The long-running group of special editions has been hit-or-miss over the years, but seemed to find its grove with its most recent FR-S Release Series 1.0 and 2.0. This is not an FR-S Release Series, though. It's a tC. You know, the only model that won't survive the Scion brand's death. Maybe we're being mean. Scion has made some decent tweaks for its Release Series 10.0, including TRD-branded lowering springs and a TRD exhaust. The Ken Miura body kit is a highlight too, and while Toyota has slathered its Barcelona Red on plenty of vehicles, we think this Scion is the best application of the shade. Other aesthetic changes, like the black badges, gloss-black wheels, and red contrast stitching could have been kitschy, but they actually kind of work. Like all Release Series models, this special tC will be limited to just 1,200 units. Prices start at $23,985 for the manual transmission model or $25,135 for the auto-equipped car. We've got a round of live images of the new tC Release Series 10.0 from the New York Auto Show up top. Be sure to take a look – it's the last new Scion you'll ever see. Scion-ara Celebration at New York International Auto Show Includes JDM-inspired tC Coupe and Classic Concepts TORRANCE, Calif. (March 16, 2016) – Scion is not going away quietly. With a final Kei Miura-inspired tC Release Series 10.0, a display of some of its most impressive project cars, and cool swag, the Scion by Toyota booth is sure to be a flurry of activity at the New York International Auto Show, March 25 – April 3, 2016. It's only fitting that Scion closes its auto show history at New York since that's where it all began. Fourteen years ago Scion debuted its first concept vehicles and announced the new youth division for Toyota that would be a laboratory for experimentation and introduce new products and processes. That commitment to innovation carries through to the debut of Scion's final Release Series vehicle for the tC sports coupe, Scion's most popular car. Thanks to a partnership with Kei Miura, known for his JDM aerodynamic designs, the final edition MY16 tC Release Series 10.0 will leave quite an impression with enhanced performance, and aggressive exterior and interior features.
Nine cars we wish were convertibles
Thu, Apr 16 2015The snow has melted, the sun is shining, and the days are getting longer. At the Autoblog Detroit office we feel like our winter hibernation is finally over. And with warmer temperatures come visions of opening up a convertible roof and cruising. You know, just turn up the bass and let the Alpine blast. There are plenty of droptops on sale in the US, and more on the way (like the 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata). That said, we always want more. More! More! More! In that spirit, we cooked up a list of nine cars aren't currently sold as convertible, but ought to be. Check out our picks, below. Summer's just around the corner. Subaru BRZ / Scion FR-S In some parallel universe, this car actually happened. Toyota showed us a FT 86 Convertible concept at the Geneva Motor Show in 2013, and we immediately started licking our chops over the thought of a rear-wheel-drive convertible based on the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S twins. These days, the MX-5 Miata is our only option for affordable roadster fun. A competitor to the Mazda seems like a no-brainer to us, especially since we have naught but good to say about the BRZ/FR-S as-is. Unfortunately in our present timeline, this car is as likely for production as a BRZ STI. Which is to say, not very. Dang. Lexus RC F Unlike the FR-S, a convertible from Toyota's luxury division might actually see the light of day. The current IS convertible is about to be phased out, and the Lexus LF-C2 concept from the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show is really a thinly veiled look at a possible RC convertible. A droptop RC would be plenty good, but let's reach for the starts. What we really want is to run topless in an RC F, complete with that powerful, loud, 5.0-liter V8 engine. Lexus says the RC F is a true competitor to the BMW M4. If that's true, it only makes sense for Lexus to mimic the Germans and offer its performance coupe in a folding hardtop form. Maybach Landaulet Maybach is bach back, recast as an upper crust trim level for Mercedes-Benz. The Mercedes-Maybach S600 is seriously awesome, and more luxurious than a trip to the spa. But why not go a step into the truly ridiculous levels of extravagence and bring back that open-top Landaulet? We think your local princess will love this idea, and with better S-Class bones underneath, Jeeves will have a pretty enjoyable ship to steer, too. Besides, with that slick new Mercedes design language, a Landaulet redux wouldn't be nearly as hideous as the old model, pictured here.
Scion FR-S SCCA World Challenge racecar, ready for the track
Thu, 01 Nov 2012Of all the many Scion FR-S models here on the SEMA floor in Las Vegas - and there are a great many of them, have no doubt - the very purpose-built car from Stout Racing is one that we may hear about again in the future.
The Stout Racing team will be campaigning the racy FR-S in the SCCA World Challenge series in the upcoming season, and is currently building some buzz on the Scion SEMA show stand. The car makes use of a supercharger that was jointly developed by Stout and TRD, as well as a front splitter, doors and rear wing - all by Vertex.
Driver Robert Stout will run the FR-S in the GTS class next year, with a debut slated for the Streets of St. Petersburg event, scheduled to go off in March of 2013.
