2008 Scion tC

Last Updated:



Just some small changes to keep the “older brother” of the Scion line happy until it is replaced by an all new one.

  1. Looks like they changed the headlights from reflector to projector. What a drag, I just bought an ’07 too. Oh well, what can you do…

  2. This is just a mid model change. This model came out in 2005 so a new one probably won’t be out til 2009.

  3. eh.. looks dumb. Besides they are projector headlights, but NOT HID! Projectors are usually associated with HID lights, which this isn’t. So it’s nothing more than what you can get off ebay. I bet the older tc 05-06 with regular headlights will be brighter and offer more light coverage.

    And the door handle inside? Looks like some kid took a spray paint can and painted the trim, this IS an improvement? HAHAHAH.. Scion is smoking something! This is hilarious. Besides looking closely at it, looks “cheap” where before it looked more “upscale”. Sad. I don’t think Toyota knows what they’re doing at all.

    I really do think that if GM and Ford get their ACTS together, then they will produce something Toyota can’t even stand up to.

  5. “hey”…
    Isn’t that what the English speaking Canadians say????

    le Quebecois, that should be en Francais.

  6. i don’t seem many scions in modesto
    thank god
    on my site i show what we do with idiot swho buy that knd of cars

  7. I don’t know why this car is newsworthy and I don’t see any relevant changes or upgrades to this unspectacular economy car. It’s all style and no substance. Like the Sebring convertible, this car is for secretaries and the shampoo girls at Supercuts.

  8. So once again a non-japanese car is given a back-handed comment for it’s model refreshening (the Audi A3), but Toyota is given a free ride on it’s mild redo of the tC. Which BTW is now the “best looking” car in the Scion line, and that’s not saying much. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn.

  9. So whatever happened to this Vince: Heh, sorry you were pretty spot on about the other ones.Anyway, I don’t see any exterior changes, except the internals of the headlights (maybe HIDs?). Not that this is bad, I still think the tC is one nicest looking cheap coupe out there.
