You don't like how our back lights resemble the Saturn ION? If that's the case, I really hope you don't spot the rear end of a Pontiac G6 sedan...

actually this has been discussed between me and a friend when brought it up to that the tC kinda resembles the bmw 6 series coupe if you do a 6 sereis retro fit for the headlights would look identical

This is pretty funny really. If you bought a car you didnt like the looks of.... all I can ask is : why?

I dont know of many cars that do not resemble at least one other car out there...

hi engifineer.... im not saying i do not like the look of the TC... im just saying that looking at it directly from the front does nothing for me.. what sold me on the looks of the car was the profile and (i know im going the concencious here) the back..

" to me " is it just plain vanilla.. and the kits so far either want to make the tc look like something it is not.. or are just WAY too radical (for lack of another word)...

oh, not meaning to sound like I was being a smart@$$ . It just sounded like some people were un-pleased with the looks, so I posted the question. I do agree and the body kits as well.. which is one of the reasons I dont like body kits. Most of them to me try to completely change the look of the car, or have a cheap look to them. But, thats just me

I have to disagree there.

The front end to me set the tC apart from all other cars. It doesn't look generic to me at all. It looks a bit like a pug.. you know, stout build. And a pug really is what I consider the tC.. not the strongest but able to contend with bigger badder cars (with some mods.) The tC just looks a helluva lot better than a pug.

(in my opinion) from dead center the tC looks simple, but from an angle it looks aggresive, i like that look. also not alot of other cars on the market has this look...our head lights give the tC a distinked look...there are cars even tring to mimic out look, example the new eclips. the back is a different story, it okay but iam not crazy about it...one reason, others cars have copied the look...perfect example, the pontiac g6...the back looks just like the tC's...i even mistaken one for a tC (i kno its sad)...also the cobalt sadan basically stole our tail lights....why they gotta copy us
