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 announces FR-S Release Series 1.0 in New York

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

In the market for a Scion FR-S (or Subaru BRZ), but don't want the same one your neighbor's got? Scion has good news for you. At the New York Auto Show today, the Japanese automaker has announced the availability of this FR-S Release Series 1.0.
As the first Release Series FR-S (the aging xB is debuting its tenth alongside it), this special edition has been spruced up by Toyota Racing Development with a series of visual and aerodynamic enhancements to give the FR-S a bit of extra edge. Included in the Release Series 1.0 is an upgraded aero kit, an exhaust tip for every cylinder in the engine (that makes four, folks), and a lowered suspension with TRD springs and HID headlamps. Did we mention it's all capped by Yuzu yellow paint?
Inside, you'll find black seats with T-pattern upholstery, a TRD steering wheel, shifter and cargo mat, dual-zone climate control and push-button ignition with smart key. Scion isn't saying exactly what this model will cost, but it is saying it will come in under $30,000 (before the $755 delivery charge).

Cars most likely to be involved in accidents

Tue, Nov 30 2021

Data from Insurify shows which models have the most accident-prone drivers behind the wheel. It also shows the proportion of the drivers of said vehicles with an at-fault accident on record in the past seven years, based on Insurify’s analysis of over 4 million car insurance applications. For reference, the national average is 10.78%, and each of these vehiclesÂ’ drivers represent a statistically significant increase over that. Now, it would be easy to infer that these cars are dangerous, but such is not necessarily the case. Remember, drivers cause accidents, not cars. These just happen to be the cars that accident-prone drivers drive. YouÂ’ll notice that many are mainstream, affordable cars, often with decent crash ratings. Also keep in mind that vehicle accidents are up since the beginning of the pandemic, so no matter what you drive, please drive safely. 10. Hyundai Ioniq This affordable, electrified vehicle platform sneaks into this list with 14.45% of drivers with a recent at-fault accident on record. 9. Lexus CT Another hybrid, this Prius-powered Lexus beats the national average at 14.57%. 8. Toyota Prius V Yet another hybrid, the larger but discontinued member of the Prius family sees 14.72% of its drivers with recent accidents. 7. Mazda CX-3 The Mazda CX-3, which is discontinued for the 2022 model year, sees the accident-prone making up 14.9% of its drivers. 6. Infiniti Q60 The second and final luxury car on this list has more accident-prone drivers than average, at 14.93%. 5. Subaru Impreza The first of two Subarus on this list has 15.1% of drivers with recent accidents on record. 4. Hyundai Genesis Coupe The Genesis Coupe was only on the market for a brief span before it was discontinued and Genesis spun off into its own luxury brand. That said, it too beats the national average for accidents, at 15.29%. 3. Subaru WRX Despite its standard all-wheel drive, the boy-racer WRX has 15.44% of drivers with a prior accident in the last seven years. 2. Kia Stinger We love the Kia Stinger, and had great luck with our long-termer that graced the Autoblog garage for a year. That said, 15.75% of its drivers represent have a recent accident on record. 1. Scion FR-S This fun two-seater attracts the most accident prone drivers, with 15.87% with recent at-fault crashes.

Scion gets touchscreen audio across the board

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

On a constant mission to court younger buyers, Scion will be adding some new in-car technology to its lineup for the 2014 model year. All Scion products will now come standard with a 6.1-inch touchscreen audio head unit that we first saw on the 2014 tC (as shown above).
In standard form, this head unit will feature HD Radio, Bluetooth and auxiliary and USB ports. Opting for the $1,198 BeSpoke Premium system brings navigation, integrated social media apps, geo-located POIs and Aha internet radio.
Other changes announced along with the new touchscreen include new two-tone paint schemes for the 2014 xD, a limited-production iQ and pricing for the 2014 lineup. As shown in the gallery, customers can now choose from silver-on-blue and black-over-grey paint combos. The iQ Monogram gets a burgundy-over-silver paint job with a limited run of just 150 units, and it goes on sale in October starting at $16,520 (not including $755 for destination).
