    Hihihi... welcome...

    My unbiased opinion of the TC? Great car for it's price range... comes with the celica motor and an all-glass roof. Also has a supercharger option from the factory... which is rather weak, but still interesting. There's several companies doing tests to see how much power they can extract outta those stock blocks... I think some ppl are in the 400's or higher so far. =x

    I like the Tc the most out of the batch.. seeing as it doesn't look like a decrepid box on wheels....

    Well I haven't heard much about the TC. I know that be are getting insane numbers out of the stock block. Do not go with the Supercharger that the factory offers you. My advice is to go with a turbocharger. People are running mid 12's in the 1/4.

    welcome and I dunno much about the preformace aspect of the TC but if I were going to be buying a daily driver it would definitly make the list. They are pretty nice, lot of options especially for the low price.

    Nice looking car pay the extra and go ahead and get the supercharged

    Horsepower looks good on paper, Torque wins races.
