Not worth it. You are better off buying the base one and putting your own customization on.

people _____ when they come with rims, people _____ if they dont come with them.

i for one would rather they didnt cause then you could change them out for something the buyer likes better so they would not have payed extra for RS rims.

yup i agree, I guess seeing all of the badge less grills they decided to add that into the rs4 psh, anybody can do that without having to buy this, and the color it's not even worth it. The kit...man...nothing special at all

Wow, I thought the exact same thing when I first saw the pic.

Man I thought the RS Series was known for using bright nice colors. Grey? I would have did orange, green or even yellow would have looked 100x better.

Oh well, there's always next year......

Yeah... next Feb - Mar the tC as we know it is gone. Maybe the RS for the NG tC will be better.

I don't think it matters what they call it... but it's going to kill the brand if they drop the ball like the did with the xB.

I'm kind of worried to see what they do if it really is a tC replacement. But I'll be in NYC at the autoshow to see it in person. Can't wait!

rumor has it, that it might be a successor to the AE86 corolla. If so, that would be the greatest thing that has happened to Toyota in a long time!

No one knows for sure ... and even the concept that's supposed to be in NY may not really be the tC successor... but we can hope.

And yes, a small, light, rwd coupe would be hot.
