It was a second gen, less than 120bhp, not exciting, Honda decided not to pursue it for the DC chassis.

They just combined two things I love...

Scions and Drifting!!!

I will be looking at this closely, as I would be stoked to convert my turbo tC to a RWD turbo tC. 8)

That would be bad arse though, Scion has brought a lot to the table in terms of sport compacts, and with as large as the aftermarket has grown for it in such a short time it has been out, my question is.....WHY NOT spend time converting an already aftermarket driven product to RWD, instead of spending the developement and time marketing a entirely new Toyota vehicle that is rwd. This is the path of least resistance by converting the tC to RWD.

You can get them without the glass roof, just not in the best package combinations. Though there were rumors of a more auto-x friendly package that came without the glass room and the better performanace options.
