im not really happy about it but im delivering pizza , part time.. on weekends and its makes me REALLY happy that lots of ppl telling me that they like my car a lot, my car looks hot, good etc etc.. ppl who got rx7, sk2, firebird etc !!!!! when those owners say it, it means a lot to me.
but my car wouldnt look that good without the hood, wheels and drop.
stock mercedes c, 350z.. yeah those cars are better car than my TC but im pretty sure that my boss doesnt get that much/any compliment about hes 350z...............

In a part store in SC I was trying to find a replacement Autometer Pyrometer gauge a guy in the store said very nice tC. He was driving a new RX-8 with some things done so I thought that was pretty cool and even cooler he new the correct pronunciation of scion.

Then the guy pull up next to me real quick, I thought he was gonna yell at me...he's all "HOLY CRAP DUDE! You got a turbo in that tC! I've NEVER seen a turbo tC before!

I own a camaro and I used to own a firebird formula as well. THOSE guys are insecure. I love messing with them though. Once I was in my tC at a gas station and there was a guy filling up his early 90's LT1 trans am. I slowed and rolled down my window. I gave him a thumbs up and the guy smiled. Then I proceded to say NICE CORVETTE!, and drove off. He had the most confused ____ed off expression plastered on his face.

since we are on the subject
the other day i was driving and there was this guy on his cell phone in a early S2000. he was weaving in and out of traffic and nearly hit me. he ended up getting stuck behind someone as i passed him on the right. well finally his lane sped up as i was slowing down to take a turn. as he passed me he yelled out .. " Hey nice corolla f ag" that ____ed off me for the rest of the day since i didn't even do anything to provoke it .. just another guy with a Honda that being *****
its like these Honda Guys Hate on us for no reason, i get more flack from them then any other group of car owners. i have found out though that most other groups actually really like the tC they just wish it was faster stock.
