Scion gave a sneak preview of the Slayer tC Show Car, amongst a number of other Scion related Show Cars, at a private event in Silver Lake, CA on Wednesday, October 29, 2014. The cars will be unveiled for the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas, NV on November 4-7, 2014.

Inspired by thrash metal’s look and sound, Mike Vu of MV DESIGNZ placed it into the Scion tC “Scion x Slayer Mobile Amp tC.” The vehicle comes with a custom paint job with airbrushed logos and skulls, suicide doors and Billet Slayer sword blade wheels with spike-style center caps. The interior turns up the volume even higher with a custom Pioneer audio system with towers of speakers, a custom mixer and a 32-inch monitor for media playback.
