Went to Woodward Dream Cruise saturday....
New to the forum, so howdy-do-de! No I'm not a hick but anyway...Only other Scion I saw was a silver box-car. I was in my BCP 5spd, a group threw some bleach down and had a sign "Light 'em up" so I did. They had a video camera, so if you see a video of a BCP tC peelin' and a truck next to it - that was me. Got a lot of comments, a lot loved the color, most didn't know what it was, one guy said "So that's the new Camaro, not bad!" What a tart... On a side note I have only seen one other tC, a silver streak on Dixboro Rd & Ply-Ann Rd. Hello to the owner if he is reading.
Little song for everyone to enjoy...
Bought a tC and it had 189 Miles on the OD - Huh?
Bought a tC and it had two chips the size of a pea all the way to metal. Outch.
Bought a tC and told everyone it had an Alum. heater/AC **** - Wrong!
Bought a tC and the sunroof rattled from day one. Nice...
Bought a tC and it cracks really loud when taking a sharp turn.
Bought a tC and the interor hatch pannel rattles. (Not hard to fix)
Bought a tC and it pulls to the right.
Bought a tC and the drivers headlight shines too low. (I fixed that too)
Bought a tC and now I am wondering what will happen when I get more than 1000 miles on it!
But if anybody asks - I still love it and I'm not saying it for spite.

Turns out mine IS aluminum. It also seems that some ***** were clear coated and other like mine are painted. I hope you can see in the pic where I sanded off some of the center area to expose the aluminum. I am going to finish sanding all of it and polish and post another pic when I am done.
Again, I am very sorry for this mistake.. I feel like a jerk!!
the back! I scratched it up a bit to get that shiny spot.
