Looks sweet. I hope it goes to market just like that without all the gaudy graphics they usually put all over them.

It does, but recommended that you don't, the tsb laminate hasn't been performed yet, so the deflector might shatter

No, they get a letter in the mail saying enjoy the enclosed model car but it was a misprint. You actually have to wait several more weeks before you actually get the car in the mail.

Read from bottom to top. this is the responce i got from Scion and the reply i sent them a little while ago.

Me personnaly, i dont think that i should have had to buy a car with a defect to get a nice collectable. i think they should atleast make them available to everyone through purchase.

oh well im sure you all can read. no more foot notes.

Why not make one for every tC owner or offer them for sale through scion.com. I and every other tC owner with an 06+ should be afforded the opportunity to own a custom diecast model of the car that we own. We should not have to wish that we had bought an 05 or earlier tC with a problem so that we could own one. Do you know what that feels like? “Oh you where not luck enough to have purchased a vehicle with a manufacture defect so you will not be able to receive a great collectable.” That’s really lame. Although I know you don’t make the rules, maybe you can pass this to someone who does. Thanks again for your time and effort in making this brand all that it is.

How does one go about getting a Scion tC Diecast Model? I know they are not available to the general public through Jada Toys but there is a huge demand for them by all tC owners. The car is outstanding and i would love to aquire one for my mantle at home. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

I heard if you roll the model car forward you can hear the moonroof squeaking and the hatch rattling.

the most important thing in all this:

I've concluded in my independant tests that I can push a TC model faster then an SI model..... talk about rug burns trying to push that damn SI to 8k rpm's.....
take that Speed magazine.....
