Default tC is the shiezNiT!!

Have you guy ever caught someone staring at your car? Im used to this on my old car but i never knew people would still have interests on the tC! Its funny watching my neighboors roll by and just stare at my car.

The feeling is great!

so weird... before i had my tC i used to see them all the time, now i've had mine for a month or two, i rarely spot them on the road... perhaps it was that special clause i signed in the contract about only one car on any 10 mile stretch of road at any time...

I know exaclty what you are talking about....im 24 and had a Dodge Caravan.....it was an SE model that was fully loaded by the way....but never got any looks.

Now that I have my tC....people love it. I remember the third night I had it, I was parked in front of a restaurant I had ordered take out in and this guys walks up. He says, "Is that your car?"...."yeah"....I like it what is it..................

you know, the general conversation about our cars when someone sees it for the first time.

so yeah, it is the sheezy my neezies.

The stares are great, I'm the only tC in my school and people constantly stare at it. I had a focus before this, this is a great change of pace.

Then, just last night.. Im sittin at a red light and these 2 guys pull up next to me and started askin where I got it and how much I payed. Haha, I told them I payed 28,000.00 and one dude was like..."thats it!?!"
I really didnt pay anywhere near 28,000...none the less, kinda funny.

Totally, this one time I was driving through school, and while at a stop sign, some people came up to me and started talking about my car.

"Whoa that's so totally awesome, what is that?"
"I bet it's a Lamborghini!"
"I think's it's the new Enzo!"
"No way, this has to be the 2006 Vanquish!"

Then 3 super models ran up to me, we all got into the car, drove to my house, and had a lot of fun

The joys of owning a tC. Today I went out for lunch/dinner and on my way back I was going 55 in a 45. I look around nervously to see if there are any cops and what do I see. One of the white camaro cops zig zagging through the lanes. What happens. Gets right behind me. And tail gates really close, and by the time this happens, Im scared ____tless and back down to 45. (I already have 2 point ticket on record not even 6 months yet from that ticket). Reach a stop light, pulls up next to me looks at me and points at me with an index finger. I roll down my window, cop says, son, nice car but slow down; I saw you doing 55 down there. I yell sorry, (over my linkin park/jay z music). He says Im pretty sure insurance is high on that thing already is, looks expensive. consider this your warning. Im letting you go cause I typed in your plates and looks like your clean(cars registered to my dad). Light turns green, and he says slow down, then takes off. . I need to buy myself a 8500 x50. Those camaros are hard to see.

Best thing was, one time I was driving out late at night, driving through a Jack in the Box parking lot, and I spot another Cherry Tc with a couple chicks in it. I pulled up to them and started chatting, telling them how I liked the color of their Tc, etc. They said they liked how mine sounded(I have TRD Exhaust) That was the best Tc looking encounter!

PS. Did I mention, the girls weren't too bad lookin'

Hey bubblemyster, what's with your signature? Do you work for Citi, or something? I actually have that card myself, good stuff

I made about $120 doing nothing but using my card like I usually do in 1 year. Not a lot, but I paid nothing and did nothing to get it. Why not?

Yeah many people stare at my car (when washed). I haven't been able to wash it because some douchebag hit me, and there is like a hole in my door....MFER!!!...anyways....

Yeah, I've been seeing quite a few tC's out on the road...but not enough to warrant me getting upset about it. I wave to each owner, because we are a select group of people who has good taste. (heheh) There are some owners on this board that I do not understand though.

Anyways, I hope that this car does not get played out and get taken to a honda level....ahhhhhhh
