Scion Announces Small Changes for 2008 tC
#64
Is it really the new 2008 scion ?
I thought it was really a 2008 scion tC after reading the news from leftlanenews.com. Soon after I read that, I sent an email to Scion through the customer service email form available at scion.com and here is the reply that i received.

I really dig the tail lights.
I don't like the head lights though. They are 'fake', if not in look then for reals. Fake stuff makes the car look cheaper then it is. I think bottom line, you combine the fake look of those head lights with the grill and you get a more econo looking car.
I will be ordering those tail lights though. Maybe that deck. =)

The current grills are muchhhh nicer....the tails are ONLY okay...and the headlights/projector looks funky....I'd prefer it to be like the smooth rounded projectors....I'd take the o7 RS tho...the o5 FM of mines is getting old...Plus I still want them steering wheel controls.

Tail lamps are nice. they look aftermarket as well, however im not sure they're for me.
Grill = Dumb
the hood against headlamps thing: my tC looks like that.. yeah its weak, but whaddaya gunna do?
Overall, im pretty sure this is just a very minor update to 1st gen tC's so it doesnt feel left out with the xA and xB make overs (tho im not sure why adding a different letter to the xA will make it sell any better, and dont get me wrong, i like the xA's just fine )

Agreed, the `08 headlights are not projectors. The ebay ones even have projectors! It is merely a freshening of parts that appear to be compatible with MY `05-`07, and not worth a trade-up to a whole new tC.
