Is it the red one pictured? It looks like a SuperCoupe! I like the looks of the SC and drove one a long time ago, I think it had a supercharged V6 in it though.

Either way congrats on the new car.

not alot of hp about 115hp with the minor mods on it but its got about 285tq so it gets up pretty good. yeah the SCs were really nice i wanted to get the SC instead but i found they werent all that reliable, head gaskets cracking? so i went to the v8 and im pretty happy with it.

any one race a scion tc lately? those things are light as **** my friend has one with about 180 to the crank with his mods and he kept up pretty good about a car length behinde me.. went from a 50 to about 100mph
