Daaamn, that is old school. I've been around since '04 but car was never anything much to look at.

Yours was one of my favorites Diesel. 5:AD, TRD SC, matte gray. Does the other owner still have it?

I wasn't terribly active, but I spent a lot of time here.
When I sold it, it looked like this:

And of course it had my $50 RS1 seats:

I still log on for some laughs.

Sold my tC after it had 10 gallons of water in it from rain after the street flooded. 2 "deep cleans" by GEICO, and a huge run around later and barely fixing it, It was the last straw. I was tired/bored/disliking the car and scene.

Now, driving my 2nd WRX. Love the car to death, and wish I never got rid of my 04 that I sold for the tC.

07 tC
It was nothing much. Think the only thing I really liked about it was the TSX retro I did, but pretty much stock just your basic mods.

Here was my tc:
Click the image to open in full size.
Click the image to open in full size.
Then the motor randomly blew and I sold everything off it and it became really gross and dumb.

Then I bought this missile car
Click the image to open in full size.
And as fun as it was 2nd blew in a shift lock initiation and I went straight into a wall at 50mph. Totaled.

Then I bought another one
Click the image to open in full size.

And now I am sick of the tc being ____ty, so it'll be back up as a "cool" hipster car.

"Randomly"
