the 6-speed is awesome dude,
Its been mentioned before but at 75mph it is around 2600 rpm,
that was a huge complaint I had with the old car, being boosted the short gearing sucked.
My old tc had a Dr. Isotope Extreme reduction short throw with the cage and cable bushings, so this shifter of course feels sloppy (normal OEM stuff),
but im hoping Dr. Iso will make another badass kit to make me feel better again lol

ill be the first to tell you that i hated this new car at first.
it really grew on me, and in real life i love it.
i really appreciate that scion didn't take the old tC and try to refresh it, they just started out new

Im not going to lie, your car look s really good in black man I'm starting to think I should get one
How does the stock stero equipment sound
You.should do a small review of all the new stuff
how is the handling does it feel over weight
Compare 1g vs 2g stock which one has over all better driving experience

Yeah the sound system is great
It's from a Lexus LH570 I believe it said in the brochure
It sounds better than almost any stock system I've heard. It's very close or better than a Bose or some other high end factory system
The base headunit is nice, sometimes the iPod/iPhone control is a little slow loading song names and such but other than that it sounds amazing.
This year they also included a set of RCA outs for a sub. Which is a really nice feature because with out that I would have yanked it for an aftermarket unit. Although it's only a 2.4v preout, it's better than no preout lol
The speakers sound really good, they actually will make the mirrors shake and your pant legs vibrate.
The colors are all orange with a white display on the headunit, and it's really easy to see at night and in the suns glare.
I'll work on some other reviews soon
