@gen1scion – 2006 Scion tC, 247k miles, daily driver

I created this page to share my DIY maintenance, modification and customization experience with other tC owners.  I draw inspiration from several car communities that I’ve been involved with including 90s Honda, Lifted Tacoma, the Audi Inline-5 world, and Honda CRVs.  I’m a late bloomer to this platform. I hope you enjoy my take on the 1st Gen Scion tC.
