so my girlfriends first scion got blindsided by some jackarse. the other night she was on her way home from work and she roadkilled 2 ginormous raccoons in scionV2... the smaller one cracked the front bumper, poped the lower grill out and disfigured the underbody plastics. the larger one mangled the hole near the foglights, but no cracks.

her first accident was at ~4k miles. this one was under 2k.

i think its cursed.

are there any front bumpers that look alright without the rest of the kit? or should she just repair the stockie?

I'd just repair the stock one. The kits out for them right now don't look that great in my opinion.

Me too. After I get the tC where I want it to be, I may buy that to replace the oem kit.

Just got back from test driving a TC. Loved it!!!!!!!! I think the celica might be getting the boot.

The tC is a step down from the Celica in every performance category. Unless you're driving a GT auto or need more passenger room, you'll be disappointed like other people who have traded in their Celicas, expecting something better from the tC.

I have never been disappointed since trading mine in. I like the extra room, not hearing the constant squeeking coming from the back, and being able to see out of my sunroof. I'm sure this car will have its faults as well, but I don't think I gave anything up when I traded in the Celica.

I would def take a TC over a Celica. Only reason i am debating is because my Celice is paid off, and i really dont wanna make payments on a new car. Those a-holes wanted to give me $5,500 for my car. Fcuk that!! My car is in mint condition with 62k on the clock. They would have turned around and sold it for like 10k.

I just test drove a 5spd TC yesterday and for having 3 people in the car it was pretty decent. Definetly a step down from my gt-s, but a pretty decent little car. I drove an auto tc a while back and hated it though. The guy yesterday tried to get me to buy the TC and I was like "Hell no, like the TC, but love my Celi". It's a cool around the town kind of car though, but needs a short shifter and suspension upgrades badly.
