2006 Scion TC 2.4L 5SPD with Greddy exhaust, new K&N cold air intake, new tires and many new parts! I purchased this car with a salvage title and I have spent countless hours since October replacing many parts of this car. Below is a list of all parts I replaced and the prices. The tires are new Hankook Ventus HR2 size 215/45R17 which cost $325.00 to purchase and $100.00 to install. Overall, most parts replaced are new, some are used from Scions with low miles. The check engine light was on when I bought the car and I thought it was the oil control valve so I installed a new one. However, it was the VVT solenoid which I also replaced. Currently, the only light illuminated is the SRS light because the front curtain airbags are missing. However, all other airbags are in place. I recently had a Maryland State Inspection and this car has passed. I had to pay $426.00 to modify the exhaust so that it would pass inspection. I have mixed feelings about selling and I have decided to sell if I can break even. I am selling since this car is 14 feet long and parking is a huge issue in Baltimore City. This car is very smooth and drives extremely well. The Greddy high flow muffler makes a strong howl when accelerating and heads turn. The K&N cold air intake I stalled has added between 10-15 horsepower. The car lives around 90-100 mph and can go much faster. The new tires hug the road and the front end work I performed has paid off. Alignment was performed at Pepboys for $79.95 and includes a 1 year warranty (I will include the paperwork). This car corners like a dream and takes off with surprising power. This car doesn't make friends on the road and for some odd reason BMWs seem to hate this car. Note that all prices listed are for the parts alone. If one were to pay a shop to do this work it would've cost a fortune. For example, the rebuilt transaxles cost $130.00 to purchase but would have cost nearly a $800.00-$1000.00 for a shop to install. Also note that not all items needed to be replaced. for example, i replaced the outer tie rods since i was planning on getting an alignment anyway. As far as the title, I was informed by the previous seller that it was involved in a home fire claim. However, there are no signs of fire damage so I suspect that may have been some insurance fraud going on. There is much more to tell about this car and all items replaced below have a story which will take too long to go into here. Questions are welcomed. My feedback score is 100% because I accurately describe items and stand by what I sell. I took the time to do all repairs correctly since I had been planning to keep this car forever. I still may decide to keep it if I don't sell it for a reasonable price. I understand that the title was a previous salvage so the Kelly blue book value of $6907.00 for a car of this mileage with a clear title in good condition is an unrealistic value. However, I would challenge you to find a used car that has been rebuilt to the extent this one has, even used cars with clear titles. One last caveat, these cars have timing chains so you don't need to worry about replacing the timing belt!

2017 Scion FR-S getting slight power bump?
Tue, May 12 2015A common refrain when discussing the Scion FR-S and its sibling the Subaru BRZ is that they are capable vehicles but are in need of more power. The latest rumors suggest that some more muscle might finally be on the way for the coupe's refresh. Don't expect something like the STI Performance Concept with a 300-horsepower, turbocharged flat-four, though – the gains in the real world are likely to be significantly more modest. According to Toyota insiders speaking with Motoring in Australia, the local Toyota GT86 (our FR-S) is due for a styling and powertrain refresh for the next model year. The 2.0-liter boxer four-cylinder engine isn't expected to get a drastic power increase, but it's not being completely neglected. A new intake manifold and friction reductions reportedly allow for five percent more grunt. If accurate, and if the changes also come here, that would take output of the US version to 210 hp and 159 pound-feet of torque. The adjustments could improve fuel economy by seven percent, as well. Handling is already a forte for the FR-S and BRZ, and things could get even better with this refresh. Motoring claims that dampers from Sachs might become standard equipment, along with a reinforced subframe. The close relationship with the BRZ reportedly rules out any dramatic changes to the styling for this update. However, the coupe is still likely to wear a new hood with vents in it, reshaped headlights, and a revised fascia with a larger lower grille. At the rear, expect a rear diffuser and exhaust pipes at the corners. While minor compared to all of these rumored updates, Scion recently gave the FR-S a few tweaks in the US for the 2016 model year (pictured above). In addition to some new colors and interior trim, it now comes standard with a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system and rearview camera.

Scion iM spied testing in US in more production-ready guise
Sat, Nov 29 2014Following the niche-oriented iQ and FR-S, Scion is preparing its first new model with mass-market appeal in quite some time with the iM. Just unveiled at the recent Los Angeles Auto Show in concept form, our spies recently shot some photos of a slightly camouflaged production iM doing some testing in Southern California. Judging by these spy shots, the production iM is taking many more styling cues from the European-market Toyota Auris that it's based on, than the much more aggressive concept on display in LA. The body kit with a low front bumper, flared fenders, side skirts and rear spoiler are all gone in favor of a much more mainstream design (we aren't surprised). The model's name comes from the first letters of 'individuality' and 'modern,' according to Scion, but if these shots are any indication, it looks like it'll pretty easily just blend into the crowd. Scion didn't reveal anything about that the US-market powertrain for the production version in LA but promised the details would be released sometime in 2015. The company did hint at a starting price under $20,000, though. It's too early to make any real styling judgments about the iM before the final version is ready, but until then see what you think of these spy shots of the upcoming hatchback.
