I'm going to buy this car within these next couple of months and this video pretty much sold me on it. Terrific job. Hands down the best 2016 tC review vid. Thanks for sharing.
I wanted to thank you for uploading this video!! I purchased a 2015 Scion tC in this same magnetic gray earlier this year and this video was my deciding factor. I can't express just how much I love this car!! Thank you and thanks for ALL your videos. Love them all!
I have a 2015 in blue, and I love it! Every now and then I look at the fr-S's but every time I get into my tC I feel like I made the better choice. More affordable, practical, sporty and comfortable. 👍🏼 I can't wait to work on it and make it a lot faster and modify some of the cosmetics to make it look like a beast! Has anyone seen Simpli-tc? Gorgeous modified 2015 Scion tC.
You absolutely made the right choice. The Tc is actually faster than the frs off the line and for a while. The frs will catch up in a quarter mile, but i used to own a 6 speed 2015 tc and dusted so many FRS/BRZ owners. They would always pull up to the light next to me and rev their engine and i would absolutely demolish them. Plus there's a comparison video on UA-cam that shows the freakin automatic tc beating a manual frs, it's embarrassing for frs owners. The new 86 is a much better improvement but the old ones are so slow and its cuz the Tc has much more torque
I am getting one of these in the next upcoming weeks and I have test driven it twice and my god is it a dream to drive. the sport mode feels great and easy, the normal automatic is the most smooth ride ive ever had. In my personal opinion the car is perfect for the price and its simplistic. It doesn't have too much or too little. Great review of the car. Keep up the good work! :D
(FIRST COMMENT.) I'm north of 90% sure I'm going to buy this car this weekend. I have driven it twice and love it. Pros: Decent gas mileage, sporty exterior, decent interior, push to start and smart key, giant back seat, giant trunk, great wheels, sunroof, moonroof, great sound system, nice entertainment/radio system, and PRICE! About $21K for all this in an automatic? Great deal. Cons: Muffler sound (just my opinion - I'm not the biggest fan but it's not a huge deal), I also with the sunroof/moonroof sliders to close it up were clothe like the rest of the headliner instead of being like a plastic curtain thing, and probably my biggest gripe about this car is that it's a fairly loud cabin when driving down the highway. I with it was a quieter ride. But the actual suspension while driving is good even though I've many people rag on it for being to bumpy of a drive (I'm coming from a 2001 Honda Civic so this is an upgrade, lol). The pros more than out way the cons for me. I travel a lot and will love taking this on trips. Very excited to buy one and start driving! I'm a 20 year old guy btw so I'm kind of their target audience. Great car and Toyota reliability it for real. My buddy has had a tC for the past 8-9 years and has had no major problems with it. He's just maintained it and it's been great on trips through 160k miles.
I have a 2009 scion tc I love it. my dad works for Toyota n still does for past 33 years. I've had 0 problems with my 09 tc been driving it since 08 n over 100,000 miles and I bought it new with 3 miles on it. I have the 2017 Scion tC on pre order already it coming out in a couple months so anyone reading this is really thinking about buying one n not just window shopping broke lol. Wait for the 2017 scion tC to come out
+Collin Mac not really 160hp 100 foot pounds not much to miss out on. I just like the way the side of the car looks better above the doors it's not squared off like the new ones
Doug Kaminski i was never a fan of the gen1 shape as it looks like a grocery car but im not a power junkie. The thing I love most about my 13 is the sound it makes when you accelerate out of 1st. That pur is satisfying.
I will be getting a tC in the exact same color after I purchase my home!! Although this car is 2 years old, I happened to find one with only 91 miles! I'm so excited man. 😀😀😀
I have the exact car and color..... Love it, even the sound system is killer. I usually always have to add an amp. +, but not in this car. Also have a bad back and these seats are exceptionally comfortable ..... Overall I give the car a 4 out of 5..... The engine could use a few more HP, but that's my only gripe !
I have the 2012 TC which is basically the same as this one except for cosmetics and push to start but I love it. Don't get me wrong I'd wish I can be driving like a FRS at times but this is also a great car. Mine is stick which is a plus for me. I got some stuff done to it (intake, exhaust, etc) and it runs fine. Already put 55,000 on it with no worries. Really recommend this car
Matthew Acuna nice man! I'm at 2200 now. I really wanted the 15 for the paddle shifters but I don't like how the 14-16 have the front and rear bumper change. Reminds me too much of the frs. Also I'm not a fan of the head lights.
I absolutely loved your extensive review of this new Scion tC, the wife is in love with hers which is a 2006 and I'm thinking about buying her a brand new 2016 and even though I live in Deltona Florida I will negotiate with your boys in South Carolina and depending on the outcome I would be willing to drive there to pick one up, thanks for all the info.
I just purchased it today. The only thing I am disappointed about vs the 2015 it does not come with the gps in the dash like the last model did. I was looking forward to that....
I have the 2015. It's not a GPS it's a feature you pay extra for. It's pretty much a Bluetooth radio with a touchscreen but can have the gps added to the same unit.
+chohan182001 Good point! I need to figure out a way to incorporate a sound demo with copyright-free music in all my videos. I typically do not mention the sound system unless it has a premium sound system or something unique about it. That needs to change. Thanks for your feedback!
Thanks for getting back to me. Based on your review I have bought 2016 Scion TC Today. Only thing different was for some reason there is no Push button start in Canadian Model. Only change for 2016 I found was upgraded Stereo. Cheers!
I'm thinking about buying this for my first car. Heard it's a very nice car to start with. What would you recommend? I Absolutely love everything about this car, but as a 16-year-old driver, I need to make a smart choice. This has the fun, and peppiness i want, but the safety and reliability my parents want. Should I get this car?
MikesCarInfo thanks! Yeah, I'm absolutely loving every aspect of this car, I'm just trying to convince my parents to help me pay for it. Thanks for this amazing in-depth review!!
I would highly recommend it! I had a 2006 scion tc as my first car, and now that I'm in college making a decent amount of money, I decided to go ahead and buy the 2016 model with a manual transmission in blue. The front wheel drive makes it an excellent starter car, and it has a great feel, sporty ride, and well-weighted steering. It has a lot of pep, and can be an exciting drive if you want it to be. If you're even remotely debating going for a manual transmission, I would highly recommend it as well. It is one of the few entry-level cars still offered with a manual, and the six speed is very smooth and fun to drive. All around, this is an excellent car to start off with, and again, it would be an excellent, safe choice.
Hey man. I hit a tree head on at 50MPH in my 2011 (same car structurally). Saved my life. Not a mark on me other than a slight seatbelt rash on my neck and a baby burn from the curtain airbag. Cars engine was moved back about 6 inches. No injuries. I then bought a 2006, turbo'd and than a 2015 in automatic due to a left knee injury. Go for it man. You'll love it. But don't treat it like a corvette.... it's not.
Great video man. I have test driven the car 3 times now and I'm likely going to get it. I have been waiting for a decent review of the 2016 model year and yours was amazing
I test drove an earlier version, loved it BUT visibility was awful. no back up camera. Loved how it drove (manual transmission was awesome) Bad visibility at stoplights due to front roofline. I didn't buy it because of visibility issues. It looks like this 2016 year of the TC has improved slightly. I might go buy one, before Toyota kills it
Hey Mike, what is your opinion of the rear visibility in the TC? Does it really have a cheap interior, or is it just simple? Does the horsepower improve substantially with the TRD performance air intake? Did you like the regular manual shifter? Keep up the good work!
It’s a real shame they stopped making scion, there’s still a market for them, I mean this thing has more cargo space than my crossover, it was designed brilliantly
so basically from 2015 to 2016 they added a rear wiper blade. Which I must say, can come in handy, however, It doesnt look so nice, I like the look of my 2015 without that rear wiper blade.
While watching this video, I thought I had noticed that the glove box locks with a key, but I didn't think the car came with a key since it is the push button start? Or does it come with a key specifically for the glove box?
+Michael Iverson The smart key has a key inside of it and there is a button on the side that you press to take the key out. It's not only for the glove box, but if the battery of the smart key dies (it only lasts at most 3 years) you have to use the key to get in, and then you put the remote against the push to start button (Yes even though the remote is dead) and it allows you to turn on the car.
Hey Mike, I been doing my research trying to see what car would best fit my needs and your videos have made things so much easier. I really like this car, but I had some concerns. I'm 6 feet and above 240+ pounds. I was wondering about your height and if you had enough headroom?
because toyota's MO for this car, since 2005, is to be confused about whether they want to market it as a sporty platform or as an econo car platform. The tC is indecision incarnate and that's actually why it's so good.
I'm really considering this car but I can't decide 6 speed manual or 6 speed auto. I live in the 4th largest city in the us too. I know that the auto has Rev matching but how's the response of the auto?
I just bought mine the pickup ain't too bad but if you're comfy with the 6 speed buy that because the paddles seem to be connected with air to the tyranny and it seems to change when it wants which really tarnished the car but it still gets a solid 8/10
Hey Mike! I heard rumors just recently about Scion slowly getting dismantled. Their Scion vehicles will be rebadged as Toyota vehicles for a while. Have you heard anything else?
+Mike N When I first heard that Scion was soon to be going out of business, my first thought was that, "Was the Scion Brand, in the first place, even necessary?" All Scion dealerships are pared up with Toyota dealerships so the buyer is 9 times out of 10 are going to buy a Toyota. Let alone look at a Scion vehicle! What do you guys think?
+Mike N nope they are 100% coming out with a 2017 scion tc. my dad works for Toyota and has for the past 33 years. the tc is here to stay regardless of what badge it has on it. we already have a 2017 Scion tc release series on pre order I'm already paying 350$ a month towards it because I'm financing it.
This car is the reason scion died . They built the scion cars so people could play with aftermarket options .While the new scions do not allow the driver to do anything other then by a new exhaust system and some wheels.
Just recently picked up a 2016 model in Blue Streak Metallic! Although mine doesn't have the proximity key, unfortunately, I think that was an optional feature you had to add at the time. Also, anyone ever figured out what those 2 blank panels were for on the driver side? I wondered what other options you could've gotten that would've removed those blank switches. :P
I prefer the 2015 models they had an actual key. I don't like push start Buttons, I'm not a fan of that unless stuff I like having a key you can stick into the ignition to start the car.
If I were to get a 2016 Scion Tc, how hard would it be to get parts for it later down the road? My uncle saids it’s a bad idea to get one since Scion is gone.
I believe they do come with cloth mats. Since it's still a dealer car, they probably didn't put them in so they stay new when someone buys the car. That's how my 14 tC monogram was
hi i know it’s 2020 now lmao but yo i still want one and i’m about to take a look at one that’s a 2016 as well and it has 44k miles so that’s not bad but this is going to be my first big purchase and i’m 20 years old but am i making the right choice or should i still wait a while
i still love it but i do not want it anymore can someone pls take over the payments i got a really good rate it’s jus the insurance that’s a killer 💀💀💀
Gas mileage is based on usage. This car hasn't been used outside the parking lot. It will get the mileage stated on the window sticker when it is actually driven.
I'm going to buy this car within these next couple of months and this video pretty much sold me on it. Terrific job. Hands down the best 2016 tC review vid. Thanks for sharing.
WillyMickyDuke so how do you like it? I plan on buying a preowned 2014
Aidan Wallington my 13 is beyond amazing and reliable went from 56k miles to 80k no problems yet and I push it sometimes up to 130mph in races.
I got the Veloster Turbo Hyundai 2016 on my channel
ayyy did u get it? im trying to buy a used one for my first car
I wanted to thank you for uploading this video!! I purchased a 2015 Scion tC in this same magnetic gray earlier this year and this video was my deciding factor. I can't express just how much I love this car!! Thank you and thanks for ALL your videos. Love them all!
I love how you give a description of everything. You talk about every thing and i find that really helpful.
I have a 2015 in blue, and I love it! Every now and then I look at the fr-S's but every time I get into my tC I feel like I made the better choice. More affordable, practical, sporty and comfortable. 👍🏼 I can't wait to work on it and make it a lot faster and modify some of the cosmetics to make it look like a beast! Has anyone seen Simpli-tc? Gorgeous modified 2015 Scion tC.
Update?, I’m looking at getting one?
^^
I should upload a video of my progress! I’ll let y’all know 🤙🏼. Wow 5 years ago lol
You absolutely made the right choice. The Tc is actually faster than the frs off the line and for a while. The frs will catch up in a quarter mile, but i used to own a 6 speed 2015 tc and dusted so many FRS/BRZ owners.

Does every 2016 Scien tC come with $10k in the back seat? I'm down to buy asap.
One stack of that $100 would be 10 grand. That's more like 50 grand.
Get a Veloster Turbo like me on my channel
6 years ago i saw this video when i had the exact same scion.... i lost it, memories is all that reamains
I miss my tC so much! It was a great fun reliable car! It was even good in snow!!
I am getting one of these in the next upcoming weeks and I have test driven it twice and my god is it a dream to drive. the sport mode feels great and easy, the normal automatic is the most smooth ride ive ever had. In my personal opinion the car is perfect for the price and its simplistic. It doesn't have too much or too little. Great review of the car. Keep up the good work! :D
"...you can see behind pretty good.." Yes, we did (19:27) ! Love tCs!

Call my friend Brent before you buy. His contact info is in the description.
I have a 2009 scion tc I love it. my dad works for Toyota n still does for past 33 years.

I've never had the pleasure of driving the Gen 1s. I feel like I've missed out on a lot.
+Collin Mac not really 160hp 100 foot pounds not much to miss out on. I just like the way the side of the car looks better above the doors it's not squared off like the new ones

Just bought one yesterday. 6 speed manual. Very smooth I'm happy
I have a 2006 tC 5 speed manual...best car I ever owned. Other than basic routine maintenance, I've only had to replace the water pump!
I have the exact car and color..... Love it, even the sound system is killer. I usually always have to add an amp. +, but not in this car. Also have a bad back and these seats are exceptionally comfortable ..... Overall I give the car a 4 out of 5..... The engine could use a few more HP, but that's my only gripe !
Crazy to see this car new is 21k, but used cars today, 09/08/2022, with 50k-100k miles are going for the same price. Pretty sad.
I have a 2016 Blue tC, bought it 2 months ago and absolutely love it. wish I could buy a mint condition one, these cars are beautiful!
I have the 2012 TC which is basically the same as this one except for cosmetics and push to start but I love it. Don't get me wrong I'd wish I can be driving like a FRS at times but this is also a great car. Mine is stick which is a plus for me. I got some stuff done to it (intake, exhaust, etc) and it runs fine. Already put 55,000 on it with no worries. Really recommend this car
I love my 2013. Just hit 700 miles
Yea just hit 20,000 miles on my 2014
Matthew Acuna nice man! I'm at 2200 now. I really wanted the 15 for the paddle shifters but I don't like how the 14-16 have the front and rear bumper change. Reminds me too much of the frs. Also I'm not a fan of the head lights.
How'd you only hit 700 miles 3 months ago on a 13? Lol, you must barley drive it I'm assuming?
touge410 _ about 60 miles a week and that's from driving between school and work. I'm on the highway literally for a few minutes.
+Collin Mac oh nice lol
Scotty Kilmer would approve this vehicle made 100% in Japan

I'm pretty sure you can have it installed for you at the dealer when you buy the car.
I have the 2015. It's not a GPS it's a feature you pay extra for. It's pretty much a Bluetooth radio with a touchscreen but can have the gps added to the same unit.
I have a 2013 and radio is just awful
I liked the review. But you totally forgot to mention anything about the sound system specs and how does it sounds.
+chohan182001 Good point! I need to figure out a way to incorporate a sound demo with copyright-free music in all my videos.
I typically do not mention the sound system unless it has a premium sound system or something unique about it.
That needs to change. Thanks for your feedback!
Thanks for getting back to me. Based on your review I have bought 2016 Scion TC Today. Only thing different was for some reason there is no Push button start in Canadian Model. Only change for 2016 I found was upgraded Stereo.
Cheers!
Buddy had to flex real quick 😂😂 19:20

puzzlesmith Thank you! I appreciate it
Hey man. I hit a tree head on at 50MPH in my 2011 (same car structurally). Saved my life. Not a mark on me other than a slight seatbelt rash on my neck and a baby burn from the curtain airbag. Cars engine was moved back about 6 inches. No injuries. I then bought a 2006, turbo'd and than a 2015 in automatic due to a left knee injury. Go for it man. You'll love it. But don't treat it like a corvette.... it's not.
Boi! That fat stack of cash in the back seat.😂
Does it come with the stacks of hundreds in the back? :)
excellent demo, very thorough and very helpful in understanding exactly the car i plan on buying!
Excellent in depth review!!!
Great video man. I have test driven the car 3 times now and I'm likely going to get it. I have been waiting for a decent review of the 2016 model year and yours was amazing
Sadly, scion was way ahead of its time
that stack of money in the back though!
I’ve never wanted one so bad until now lmao
I love these cars.i bought a 2015 scion Tc 9.0!! it's a neck braker.
it is a well thought out car that's sporty and practical...user frendly
Anyone else notice all that cash on the rear passenger seat? 19:24
+Jimmy Gewin Huh why would someone showcase a "SCION TC", when he is got that kind of cash just laying on the back seat. lol
yeah I saw that wtf!!! guess he's gonna purchase it lol...
maybe the $$$ comes with the car.. fuck iam IN!!
+Jimmy Gewin cocaine dealer confirmed
Lol unpatiently waiting because i dont wanna skip anything
I was looking at 8th gen civics but this video sold on the Tc! You get so much more for your money.
really like this car!
I just bought this car!!
I got the Veloster Turbo 2016
My channel Veloster Turbo 2016
I love this car! I test drove one today! Has great speed for a 4 cylinder. Sucks they stoped making it.
Love the look.
Great video! This new tC is such a nice car, if only I had the money haha
It's $365 a month do the math on how much you make and how much extra you have, you can achieve your goals
I test drove an earlier version, loved it BUT visibility was awful. no back up camera. Loved how it drove (manual transmission was awesome) Bad visibility at stoplights due to front roofline. I didn't buy it because of visibility issues. It looks like this 2016 year of the TC has improved slightly. I might go buy one, before Toyota kills it

I’m buying one in 3 months
hopfully this is my first car, you have sold it to me
Awesome car
i love his car. my 2010 is great but i will probably switch to this one
Yeah uh why is there like thousands of dollars in the back seat?
+Russell Foreman Lol, just to see who is paying attention. :)
he just tryna flex on us all
It's prop money.
love this car
so basically from 2015 to 2016 they added a rear wiper blade. Which I must say, can come in handy, however, It doesnt look so nice, I like the look of my 2015 without that rear wiper blade.

PS3Gameplays123 Ahh okay, thank you! I was sure there was a trick, just wasn't sure what it was.
Good car I have one 😍🔥
I love this car
Hey Mike, I been doing my research trying to see what car would best fit my needs and your videos have made things so much easier. I really like this car, but I had some concerns. I'm 6 feet and above 240+ pounds. I was wondering about your height and if you had enough headroom?
9:05 yeah passing isn't that effortless but its a little sporty i always called it a corolla with a body kit
lol the stack of money at 19:26
2016.. back up camera is the 2nd year ot was required? My 15 XB has one.
looks awsome. love the camera btw!!!
Thanks :)
such a great reviewer
nice ride,i own the 2016 manula version....only thing missing is the turbo and i wanted to know why its not lower
because toyota's MO for this car, since 2005, is to be confused about whether they want to market it as a sporty platform or as an econo car platform. The tC is indecision incarnate and that's actually why it's so good.
Does it have a backup camera? I’d be surprised if it didn’t.
Would I be able to get an engine cover?
Thinking of getting this car
I'm really considering this car but I can't decide 6 speed manual or 6 speed auto. I live in the 4th largest city in the us too. I know that the auto has Rev matching but how's the response of the auto?
I just bought mine the pickup ain't too bad but if you're comfy with the 6 speed buy that because the paddles seem to be connected with air to the tyranny and it seems to change when it wants which really tarnished the car but it still gets a solid 8/10
Just get automatic you can just use sport mode or use the paddles if you want to shift manually
im going to hate the toyota badge when it changes to toyota only
They are going to have all scion models except tc because they going to stop productipn for it
Do all scion tc 2015-16 make that engine ticking sound ?
Lmao I liked the way he pressed down the gas😭
Got my today! It's an amazing auto! I'll be adding hid lights, neon blue lights for the interior and some other touch ups
I have a 2014 tC and I love it but I wish I had the push button start and paddle shifters like the 2016 does...
Hey Mike! I heard rumors just recently about Scion slowly getting dismantled. Their Scion vehicles will be rebadged as Toyota vehicles for a while. Have you heard anything else?

They're killing off the Scion TC and carrying the rest of scion to Toyota
+Mike N When I first heard that Scion was soon to be going out of business, my first thought was that, "Was the Scion Brand, in the first place, even necessary?" All Scion dealerships are pared up with Toyota dealerships so the buyer is 9 times out of 10 are going to buy a Toyota. Let alone look at a Scion vehicle! What do you guys think?
+Mike N nope they are 100% coming out with a 2017 scion tc. my dad works for Toyota and has for the past 33 years. the tc is here to stay regardless of what badge it has on it. we already have a 2017 Scion tc release series on pre order I'm already paying 350$ a month towards it because I'm financing it.
All that cash in the back seat tho lol
Is the 2nd (the smaller) sunroof able to open?
+t0neeh213 No it is fixed.
This car is the reason scion died . They built the scion cars so people could play with aftermarket options .While the new scions do not allow the driver to do anything other then by a new exhaust system and some wheels.
how much would mine cost? its scion tc 2007 with 67 thousend miles? only used it from Harvard to Chelsea Mass very miles back and forth .
have a 07 will be buying another next gen you are showcasing here
6 years later no issues with my tC, only oil changes, tires , breaks
hate seeing a car in better condition than mine
Just recently picked up a 2016 model in Blue Streak Metallic! Although mine doesn't have the proximity key, unfortunately, I think that was an optional feature you had to add at the time.
Also, anyone ever figured out what those 2 blank panels were for on the driver side? I wondered what other options you could've gotten that would've removed those blank switches. :P
One blank is for foglight's switch.
I wish this was an inline 6 engine like the Supra
Anybody else notice the large amount of cash wrapped in rubber bands just sitting in the backseat towards the end?
How's the tC in snow? I want this car so bad when I get my license!
Does the car has engine temp gauge display? I think this car will replace my 03 Civic.
+HUNG NGUYEN No it only has a warning light if the temperature is too high.
+HUNG NGUYEN It has a light for too hot and too cold actually
I love this car, but it is a hard bumpy ride. Maybe because I have the 10.0 series
does all 2016 tc comes with push start because in Toronto its key ignition and I was wondering about that?
Most new cars do. Keys are becoming old now lol.
Is it automatic and manual, like the gtr?
Aqesome review! Thank you!
I prefer the 2015 models they had an actual key. I don't like push start Buttons, I'm not a fan of that unless stuff I like having a key you can stick into the ignition to start the car.
If I were to get a 2016 Scion Tc, how hard would it be to get parts for it later down the road? My uncle saids it’s a bad idea to get one since Scion is gone.
It has a Toyota Camry engine, and you know how many of them are rolling around. Scions had very few parts that were specific to them.
Great review as always!
+Zach Cook Thank you :)

Mike, can you access Apple CarPlay in this model?
Also, why don't the scions come with floor mats!!! Crazy!
I believe they do come with cloth mats. Since it's still a dealer car, they probably didn't put them in so they stay new when someone buys the car. That's how my 14 tC monogram was
+Mike M can u access Apple CarPlay? The dealer told me that the mats were accessories and I had to order them!😒
Mike great video, just wondering why you have some stacks in the back seat. Are you about to go buy that car?
+Gennady Hedblom Just to see who was paying attention :)
+MikesCarInfo lol I think your theory worked
What camera did you use for this?
+Zelos I used a Sony AX100 in this video.

does that pioneer display have navigation / gps? and awesome video buddy. good job
nope
It does but it's optional. You can find the gps part aftermarket for about $350. Scion charges $1,200 to install it from the factory.
Is the exhaust stock !?! It sounds so good
yes
hi i know it’s 2020 now lmao but yo i still want one and i’m about to take a look at one that’s a 2016 as well and it has 44k miles so that’s not bad but this is going to be my first big purchase and i’m 20 years old but am i making the right choice or should i still wait a while
bruh y’all took too long fuck it tho i got me one lmao and i love it so much and tbsh i really think i got a good deal
i still love it but i do not want it anymore can someone pls take over the payments i got a really good rate it’s jus the insurance that’s a killer 💀💀💀
why is the gas mileage so low? im scared to get it if it uses to much gas?
Gas mileage is based on usage. This car hasn't been used outside the parking lot.
It will get the mileage stated on the window sticker when it is actually driven.
would this be a good transition from a Celica owner?
Ot has good safety ratings and stuff and good mpg and nice interior ik because i saw one in a car show
It even has pioneer speakers!! So yes
Btw scion shut down but toyota still makes the parts also another reason you should get one is because they are reliable
Yes
I have one with the fog lights already installed
