    Default Type S owner rides in a tc for the first time

    I have to admit, the tc wasnt as bad as I was told it would be. My friend just bought a new 06 and I was pleasantly surprised by the Toyota interior. I had always thought toyota interiors were like vomit, but this one wasnt bad for the price.

    After riding in my Type S, the tc felt a lot quieter too. I would surely recommend it to someone spending less than 20k on a car.

    I think the TC does feel more refined than many of the other sport coupes available. I believe I read somewhere that the TC has the same amount of sound absorption material that they put in a Lexus.

    I understand totally what you're saying. My friend has a RSX Type S and said the same exact thing. I actually came from an Integra Type R and I feel that the TC was much more comfortable. The loss in power was minimal but noticeable. I feel the TC is a great entry level vehicle for someone looking for a coupe.

    actually its my bro's RSX. but we use each other's car whenever we want. if one feels like driving aggressively and fun, RSX. if one wants something quieter to drive, softer ride, tc it is. we spend money both ways to mod. at the moment, we're still trying to finish our turbo project. just missing a couple things and getting some tuning issues resolved.
