One thing, to pass as a entry sports car the TC needs about a 1.5" drop and much stiffer springs/shock/struts. The thing is the the dealer will be happy to sell you those as an extra. Toyoda seems to have built a great little car but also seems to have built-in anti-sporty features that you can "tune" out with THEIR OWN parts. Kinda crappy for you but smart for them

I'd take a tC with the blower-kit over a SRT-4. The SRT-4 is just so cheap econocar feeling, the interior sucks, and the seats hurt. I agree with Reid, some suspension tweaks and some nicer brakes and you'd have a pretty nice DD.

I was actually looking at buying a Tc for a nice DD. But, I thought there was going to be a turbo kit available for them soon? I want one with a turbo, or I would probably just leave them alone.

TRD has a SC kit in the works...who knows, it might even be out by now. I know you could pre-order one this summer.

The TC is the one that looks like the Acura. The boxy one is the xA or the xB.
