Hello everyone, my name is Scott. I'm 30 years old from Endicott, NY and this is my 2006 Scion tC. I belong to a local Car/Truck Club called TEAM Imagination In Motion. I'm also a member of Scikotics (NorthEastern Chapter/New York).
My tC was purchased on 11/07 with only 11,300 miles at a cost of $16,000 plus tax/title/tags. When I test drove the car I was blown away with the performance, handling, comfort and the looks of the tC. Since day one, I had to trick my tC out and make it standout from the crowd. I am one of those people that can't stand having a plain looking ride that looks like everyone elses on the road. I love all aspects of the car/truck hobby. I am not judgemental towards anyone whether they drive a Honda, Ford or a Mercedes Benz. I am also into the Mini-Truck/Lowrider Scene, Car Shows and SPL Competitions.
Another project I'm currently working on is a 1995 Chevy S-10 (Lowrider/Custom Modified) that is in the final stages and will back on the road very soon. As soon as my S-10 is finished it will be posted here on OCS.
Modding my tC is like a drug addiction, but the legal kind. My tC is a daily driver, show car, and not a trailer queen. I strive to keep my car clean, and washed on a weekly basis, I can't stand a dirty ride.
I've put in a lot of time, hard work, money, sweat, thought and love into my tC to make it look, perform and handle the way I want it. All the modifications you see on my tC are all bought and paid for by ME and only ME. I can honestly say I installed most of the modifications myself, or had some help, but I DID NOT pay anyone to do the work for me. I love getting my hands dirty and learning how to do something new and say I participated in the install. I want my tC to represent ME and who I AM, rather than do something that has been done already. I don't find it necessary to follow the crowd, I'd rather do my own thing and be UNIQUE!
Please take a few minutes to view my page, rate my ride and leave me some feedback on my guestbook. I will rate your ride and leave you feedback in return. I am constantly adding and modding, so please stop back often and checkout my progress. Thank You!
***I would like to say thank you to all those people that voted for me for OCS 8 and for all the kind words. I also would like to say thank you to the sponsors for choosing me as well. I have never won anything online for my tC, so this is really special to me.***
