2006 IS based on TC?

It might be you. Once you see the IS in the sheetmetal you have a totally different perspective. It does share a little formal language with the tC (read as Toyota's brand identity), but scale, proportions and details are all very different.

ist definately jus you

The new IS 250 and 350 are based off a shortened version of the same frame the new GS is riding on.

New IS is definitely not BASED on the tC since it's RWD or AWD. Like Jake said - it's a baby GS.

Personally, I don't see any similarity between the IS and the tC. Other than that they're both cars...and both metal...and...um, yeah.

Oh and they're both built by Toyota

they both come in silver?

I thought the same thing and people didnt think it had tC qualiteis either but if the tC were to be a 4 door i think it would probably look like the IS so yes i am with you.

I'm thinking: not so much.

in all honesty, thats what we are hoping scion will produce soon. a four door version. but i would prefer to see it on a new platform with a new name, not just the tC sedan. its something we are needing to continue being competitive with honda / acura. we have the coupe to combat the civic and rsx, we need a TSX type model to round us out.

^^ I agree with you there.

nahh i can totally see the resemblence.....

i don't see the similarity

Definitely resembles a Camry Solara.

The G6 coupe IS a Solara.

I like the G6 coupe..
