Great value!

I love this car. So much fun to drive. You can't find a better value. The manual is way better than the automatic.

the beauty and style

the handling not so good after 50 mph there is a gap, definitly needs 5s gear (i have automatic). one disapointing thing is the quality of the interior after 6 month it looks like in 5 years old car (lots of scratches evrywhere)

Great Car

I have my tc for a couple of months. I liked everything about this car. It is fun to drive. And it has all the little extras in the base model.

best chose i could have made for a first car!

this car is absolutely amazing but the only thing that could be a little different is the roaring 2.4 inline 4 with only 142 whp and 153 wtq but an easy way to get around that is a few aftermarket parts but other then that handling and driving is a blast!

Best overall value

Great all around coupe (especially for the money). Solid feel and handling. A fun drive. Less time wasted with "Pure Pricing" and great accesories available. An extremely enjoying purchasing experience. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in a sporty coupe.

Sexy Ride

This car is absolutely amazing!! I bought it in azure pearl and everyone compliments me on the color because it looks like it changes between night/day...however any color that the tc comes available is gorgeous. I upgraded it with fog lights, blue LED lights, leather shift knob, IPOD capability stereo, floor mats, lo-jack security, lip spoiler, and I want more! New performance accessories are now available such as a supercharger, quick shifter, and cold air intake. If only my boyfriend knew how many guys hit on me with this car on the way to work =)..the drive is toyota smooth, handles well around turns. The best part is the reclining rear seats and the double sunroof. Friends like the roominess in the back seats and say "it has room like a 4-door." The standard 17" Yokohama low-profile tires are definitely a plus when it comes to value. More horsepower than an 06 civic EX, you are definitely getting more than what you pay for. Please, buy one, and ENJOY!!

Great car for the money

Drives great. For a 17K vehicle with a couple extra cool features this is the best you can get. Ipod connection on a good stock stereo for a small amount extra, standard power sunroof with a glass roof behind it, great handling, good looks. If you want a cool 2-door ride with Toyota quality that doesn't drive or look like an econobox this is the car to get.

Bang for your buck!

This car is awesome! I bought it brand new (2006) and have been driving it for 4 months now! I upgraded to the strut shock kit and tie bar. It takes corners with no body roll at all! With all the standard features and customization options this is the best you will get for the price. Everywhere I go people comment on the car...even when sitting in traffic! Get it!
