You can see they changed the hatch a bit aligning them with the body line, I love it:

Those aren't rims. They're hubcaps for the TE. Look at the side angle shot.

TE version doesn't come with rims and comes with crap tires so they can be priced lower.

More power - that's what you wanted from us. So we took that to our team of engineers and came back with a 2.4-liter dual overhead cam (DOHC) 16-valve EFI with Variable Valve Timing with Intelligence (VVT-i) technology. This - plus a compression ration of 9.6:1 - produce 161 hp @ 5,700 rpm and a hefty 163 lb.-ft. @ 4,000 rpm.

In addition to raw power, the tC also boasts low emissions, low noise levels, and an impressive fuel economy. Manual transmissions get 23 city / 30 highway miles, and automatics deliver 23 city / 31 highway. *

Those lines on the hatch are not reflections, they are too detailed to be reflections, and it looks kinda too much. But, I THINK I like it...

off by a factor of 10. I sell the things and think this was a HUGE mistake on Scion's part. Lukily Scion is big enough to afford a mistake or two along the way.

Well, at least the normal tC will be just like the 06. It's just different package Scion is doing now. That's like having a TRD off-road package on a Tacoma and then Toyota starts telling Tacomas without the package. And they still sell em both.

True, but if your business model is to build them all the same way (monospec) to save money in manufacturing, then you are defeating the purpose. Don't get me wrong, I'm not dissin the concept, just the execution. It should have been sold with one seat, no carpet, no radio, and keep the sunroof. 86'in the sunroof and wheels to save 1500 bucks? I'm not buying it.

The 07 tC was a featured car under Scions both at Sema Auto Salon at Fort Washington. The roof is all glass, there by covering up the sunroof and the back what ever you tC guys call that window thing. The sunroof serves no purpose but yes the roof was all glass and no metal or plastic

Yea, I know what you mean, but it might be a rule to have passenger seats, etc.
