Hi Guys; my name is Daniel. I’m planning on buying my first ever car; that’d be the 2011 Scion tC 6M, but i wanna hear from you guys about what I’m getting myself into; as far as from what i know currently that it’s using an Engine from a Camry and that it has better take off than the 1st Gen FRS lmao, but also being Toyota Reliable here n there. I’ll be sharing pictures soon as i have the car n such.

Aside from that, I have big plans on building this machine. Mainly the rather more insane being that I wanna turn my Scion into a Sudo Fan version of a Kamata Fiera from Ridge Racer, I loved the game so much that I’d love to build my car off one of the playable machines pfft

2009 tc....~260k miles. oil used to burn from the top dot down to a dry dipstick in just a 360 mile highway trip. Thats a couple quarts? anyway i did the berrymen solvent cleanse thats mentioned in this sub often and now it takes me over 3k miles for the dipstick to go dry (HUGE WIN).

I want for my car to drive faster and smoother. what mods can i do to quiet the noise that comes from an older car like this? and boost acceleration a bit..mechanics have told me that this car is only halfway done if i look after it. i do my oil changes, spark plugs, coil packs(and refills due to consumption) and have one guy for tuning up shit that i dont know how to do. what can make this shit accelerate like a new car though?

now this is mostly to vent but feel free to help out uhh i have a shitty EVAP system..mechanic did a smoke test today and smoke came from my gas cap so i replaced that but my car is still driving funny with the check engine light back on and stalling everytime i fill up my tank. (p0171, p0441, p0455) They already replaced my purge valve under the hood months ago and told me today that one is still good.

Also fuck this bumper.

hi! looking to get my first car and came across a 2014, 137k miles, $5.9k, VERY light scratches bumper/side scratches or a 2015 release series 9.0, 90k miles, replaced (unpainted) fender and headlight on drivers side, CV axles & brakes replaced last year, $7.5k. Wondering if there was any pros or cons between the two, and i wanted to hear what you folks who’ve personally owned one has to say.
