I like it, the black stripe accent adds a little flare that the RS models desperately need..

yea, not too big of a fan of the color choice, the last hooray of the tC should have been a yellow or orange color... I do like the interior though, seats look much better than the stock ones...

the restyle was supposed to be this year, according to my sources at scion corp. i actually knew this color and info about 3 months ago, but couldn't bring it public until they announced it.

yes. supposedly the tC2 (which is only going to be referred to as the tC... LAME) is going to have the same front, but redesigned rest of the body?

the iQ ships in august, along with the 2011 tC (which was SUPPOSED to be the redesigned one).

FT-86??? Not sure what that is.

i heard something, the FT86 design we have come to love has been scrapped for a Calty design. what i saw looked closer to the FT-HS. so that most likely means the FT86 will be Japan only. I can't see how there has been the G-SPorts package at the auto salon and the whole project is scrapped. highly unlikely. it's just that that desing won't be for the U.S. is what it might mean.

The FT-86 is looking like it wont be released until 2013, no word on if its JDM only. But I highly doubt it, the US will most likely see it.

The tC2 has a complete makeover, nothing is the same as the old tC,
iQ and tC will ship in July and be at dealers mid August.

Oh, the tC will use the 2010 Camry's engine and tranny except it will be re-tuned to be a little more aggressive. So we are looking at a 2.5L 6-Speed About 180hp

Like the color but some ground effects would have been nice.

Keep the weight down and Scion could have a hell of a car.
