There's nothing really special about it... lowered, rim's, random mod's that anyone teen in scions demographic would do?

Those brakes look small in those rims. you woulda think with a TRD edition, they would put bigger brakes at least and heck even a TRD supercharger would make it better. Or even tint the windows for god's sake lol. I like the rest of it hold for the red lip, wonder what it would look like in chrome

Well I'm sure it's probably not worth the price difference over a non "release edition", but I think that car in particular (black on black) is sexy. It needs to be a five/six speed manual, whatever they have by now, and it needs darker tint and it would be pure sex IMO...

5 speed.

My favorite RS was the pearl white with the white alcantara suede.

Though I do like the black on black.

Toyota racing development = automatic transmission and color tuned interior

A TRD TC is sortof an oxymoron.


But otherwise (minus all the trd bull) black on black is nice.

Btw, what's the total invoice on the car?

see the way to go is...buy a black tc...then put trd parts on it ;-p its cheaper this way...all i need now is the s/c (which im waiting on because i dont want to void warrenty) and sway/strut bars

^yeah for the sticker on this thing you could buy a nice manual model in black and spend the rest of the cash on a lip kit, struts/springs and full exhaust. the only thing you wouldnt have is the red int.,rims,badge. which in my opinion is lame anyway.

IIRC black is a release color, they come in graphite but not actual black .

2010. If you want a tC for now, just buy the Corolla XRS. I still say they ruined these cars. The 2ZZGE engine/6 speed trans combo was waaaaay better.

Invoice is 19765 and msrp is 20770 for the automatic + the pedestal spoiler. I priced it out...its basically saving about 150 bux by getting the package all together, and it has factry warranty. Looks like they will never supercharge from the factory..it messes with the EPA ratings...and the tc's arent the greatest in the world. Although i did have a chance to drive a RS 5.0 with a supercharger and added front strut tower brace...preety bad ass. The exhaust on this car is ok sounding, but the customer got an automatic so its annoying in 4th gear just driving around...oh well

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think TRD's S/C is no longer available, at least through dealers.
