Yes, I am 25. Yes, I drive the tC as a daily driver, it is sporty and good on gas. And for $17,500 it is the best bang for buck.

My age has some bearing on what I can afford? I don't really see how that works, maybe just a bit of jealously kicking in?

And by the way the GTR is going to MSRP at $69,989 and likely sell the "base" models at $73,000.

There is absolutely no reason to insult me, but I understand that someone like you would sink to that level to try and get your point across.

"Class Act Fool" ... right.

Let me know when you get that video of you eating a Vette alive, I will be sure to add it to my collection along with "Cobalts - How to Eat Vipers".

more than 1300 a month, and because hes so young he wont have a credit score higher than a say... 720ish if that... which would give him a high apr and monthly payments probably based on have a 210k a year income..

install your gauges already to save time on install day.

get all your"pre-install" stuff ready i.e.-

1. syn oil
2. oil filter
3. vac lines
4. rtv high temp sealant (red)
5. teflon tape
6. various tools (snap ring pliers, extensions.. etc.)
7. oil pan sealant from toyota (white tube, black stuff inside)
8. if your not getting a pre tapped oil pan i suggest.. getting a tap put in before and just plug the hole with a nut till install date
9. clutch. which ever you choose is fine i suggest comp clutch
10. at least two weeks before instal start using premium gas. here in hawaii 92 oct. but whatever in socal. i think 91 oct.
11. some hose clamps of all different sizes.
12. zip ties

for now thats all i can think of but ofcourse you will still make trips to checkers and what not for misc. stuff.

GL.

Why would I be jealous of a guy who drives a stock tC?


Good luck buying one that cheap. My next door neighbor just bought one and if you are looking into one look to pay more of a mark up then that.

I bring home $5000 a month, if you want to see a W2 come to my house ... not something I post on the Internet. Unlike the majority of the American population my age, I actually went to school, and actually did something with my degree ... I make money. And can afford a GTR and then some.

Really, mind going out and taking a few pictures of that? I have known of about 5 in the whole country on the road. They dont start coming in until June ... so he must have some pretty good connections. Please take some pictures and send them, I would love to see your next door neighbor's GTR. Ask them what they paid for their "marked up" GTR.

Thanks,

Chris .... AKA your full of SHlT

look mang the reason eveyone is F**king with you is because you came on here talking ____ about tCs pretty much in the F**king force induction section on "Scion Mother F**king Life" were like fam on here us boosted guys and when you run your mouth be prepared for some ____e talking..

so you can

a. Shut the F**k up

b. Grow the F**k up

c. go jerk off looking at some pics of the new gtr and or Z06

or

d. stop being a F**king idiot and admit you said some donkey ___ this on this thread and maybe just maybe, everyone will stop...

have a nice day.

:looser:
