lets be logical in looking at the what the rs2.0 could be.

1. all the release series colors have been previous colors offered by toyota. i would expect, a blue or yellow.

2. they are not going to do anything drastic on the release series like put 19" wheels. i could be wrong, but i hink they stopped offering the trd 19" wheels.

3. there will be no 6-speed tranny built for a release series

does it have a 5-speed auto?... well scion still lists the 4-speed automatic on the site

If they want it to be different, then I'd go with the toyota color of Electric Green Mica. I think the blues and yellows are played out, and they have yet to offer a nice green scion, although I kind of fancy the camo color of the xb

the tCab...lol. Oh and the midnight blue that someone mentioned is not the Indigo Ink Pearl, but the new Nautical Blue Metallic...have you seen it?! It's freaking dark! As soon as I get my tC back from the shop tomorrow, I'ma head over to Red McCombs Scion to get some side-by-side pics of the two colors and the difference.

Should be interesting.

Oh yes...my RS 2.0 predictions. I think the Speedway Blue would look so freaking hotttt on the tC. They should've done that instead of the red, but oh well. The RS 2.0 won't have the Supercharger 'cause it'll be delayed again and again...it'll have a ground effects kit and wing, and maybe some engine details like the strut tie bar or something. Nothing major.

i still like the green idea. either the one on that mr spyder or the camo green.

hey, we should have a pool for what color it will be, what acessories it will have, and when it will be released.

I think I remember hearing somewhere that the RS 2.0 tC will be an electric blue, along the lines of the Speedway Blue color that's on the new Tacomas. I think that'd be pretty sweet.

i agree, but based on that last photo of it in yellow, it looks like something that they would do. but i still say that it will be green.

wow, finally someone thinking with commen sense. people are still asking for other colors from different manufacturers, but it is most likely a 1 in a million chance that will happen

i think that the 2.0 will be even less "cool" than the 1.0, which is pretty bad because the 1.0 isn't selling all that well around the country, so it looks like people don't see the 1.0 as "cool." it seems like the rs series cars are getting less and less appealing to people and the whole rs idea is going downhill. i've read a number of posts about people going to buy a regular xa or tc and getting a rs xa or tc because it was sitting there and their color choice for the regular one that they wanted wasn't. they love their rs ones now that they have them, but it wasn't their first choice. the regular version of the car was their first choice. sure, maybe that is because they figured that the rs ones would be hard to get and never considered them because of that, but it is equally as possible that no one really likes them too much. i think that using absolutely red on both the rs xa and rs tc was tacky and takes away from the limited feel of both. but i also think that it is a sign that scion is already running out of rs color choices. as for the 2.0's color though, i doubt that they will take the time and use the money necessary for r&d of a brand new color that they could mix.

The more I look at photoshopped pics of a yellow color, I think it would be a nice choice in color IF its the right shade of yellow.
