Chicago Preview: Scion tC Series 4.0

Chicago Preview: Scion tC Series 4.0

Filed under: Chicago Auto Show, Coupes, Scion


Toyota won't be having much in the way of new models at next week's Chicago Auto Show, but its hip urban sibling will be showing off a new version of the tC. The Scion tC Release Series 4.0 RS (whew) ups the style quotient of the base model with a DAMD body kit, new upper grille and rear spoiler, all coated in Galactic Gray Mica. The interior benefits from a leather-wrapped steering wheel, black leather and dark wood RAZO shift knob and gray and black seats swathed in Alcantara with "tC RS 4.0" embroidered into the front and rear seats.

All that extra kit comes at a $2,700 premium (an extra $285 if you want the spoiler too), with the automatic model coming it at $20,500 and the manual-equipped version for $800 less. Both prices don't include the $620 destination charge. Only 2,300 examples will be available when sales begin this March.

Toyota's press release is available after the jump.

That does look a little better than the current ones. 20k is damn cheap.

I like that tC's understated styling, but I would rather spend my money on a TRD supercharger instead.

i really like the look of the Tc but i think a new look is needed for next year in order to keep the look hot.
