that is the cit~
Hhhmmm, it's getting the 3MZ-FE (current gen camry V6) treatment? Probably not the old 1mz-fe with that oil sludge issue. Hopefully the exhuast pipes DO NOT hang and is flushed with the undercarraige. I know with the current solara, the exhuast pipes are NOT flush! Just looks ugly not flushed, IMO.

Seeing that pic at first, I thought that the platform and car were dropped off from a plane at 1000ft and then the parachute deployed. Digging the Blue one.

I'm normally all about black, but that blue is really tempting looking! Might be worth going against my normal instinct to have a color that does not get as dirty so fast.

Default I need help picking a color!

I ordered a tC today and am soooo excited! :D

However, I'm having trouble picking a color! I'm leaning toward black cherry pearl but I'd like to know if anyone has an xA or an xB in that color and if it looks purple at all?

I also am contemplating the flint mica or the azure blue pearl.

Someone help me! I can't decide at all!

Oh and if possible, make June come a bit more quickly too!

IMHO, blue or the silver streak. You have a lot of faith in this car by putting down a deposit without seeing or test driving. Hope you are correct!

Don't worry. If I actually change my mind, I can get my deposit back, but I really don't think I'm gonna be changing it.

The car just sounds too good!

By the way, maybe I'm just having a blonde moment, but what does IMHO mean?

Shortcut for In My Humble Opinion. I agree that this car is going to be great. I just want to see and test drive for myself. Unlike the Mazda 3 which is having some "new" bugs (CEL, brakes, air bag sensor), I don't think this car will have 1st run production problems.

Thanks. Sorry about that, I had never seen that acronym before.

So anyway, if anyone has seen the xA or xB in the black cherry pearl, please let me know if it looks purple at all??? Thanks.

black cherry look closer to a burgundy color... with dark shades and it depends on the angle of the light as well... i guess it does give off shades of purple too...

here's a sample...

I just got back from my dads work (toyota HQ in torrance) b/c the tC was there!!!!
I got to sit in it and play with the sunroof! Its the blue one from the pictures. The hight isnt so bad in person. Its not a huge gap between the tire and the car. My god i cant wait till july when mine comes! I couldnt take pictures because it was in the garage and they said no. =o( I dont care if your guys don't believe me! I'll give you my dads number and he can tell you if you really want to know that it was true.
But seriously, this car is beautiful in person. Pictures just dont do it justice. I wish someone else could be there so we could have jumped around in joy! (im a chick, we do that stuff) The back seat is pretty big. The seats were reclined so maybe it seemed bigger. AAHH! so much to say but i'm still so shocked that I got to sit and play with it....but i didnt get to turn it on cause there were too many people in the garage. Oh and when you turn the key and the guages do its full sweep, It was like love at first site!
I had to share it with you guys, i just wish i could have taken pictures. Damn it! If i knew anyone personally around my town, i could have taken you!

Ok, I will bite and assume that you did get to sit inside the car.

Please tell us some more details about how the car felt on the inside. Here are some standard questions I am sure everyone is going to want to know. heh

I am going to assume everything was stock.

1. How tall are you and how roomy did the inside feel on the driver's side? Where you able to adjust the steering wheel to a good position? Front seats comfortable?

2. How was the quality of the interior? Did everything feel well made? How did the "Japanese paper" inspired dash feel?

3. What did you not like about the inside? Was there any one thing that stood out you hated or just disliked?

4. Does it come with cruise control?

If anyone else has anything else to add to this list go for it!

Well, I'm 5'1. but the seat was back so i couldn't reach the pedals, and when i got in the back it was still pretty rooms, i had LOTS of leg room.
The steering wheel moves up and down and so i was able to find the perfect spot for me.
The seat are VERY comfortable, front and back.
The interior had a differnt rubber on the doors because it was for testing or something like that, but besides the doors, everything was really nice.
The japanese paper dash was actually really nice. soft..i think. I was so excited that i dont remember if it was soft but i think it was.
I dont remember anything about cruse control. but isnt that comming standard?
I loved everything about the car, the rims looked great and all. any more questions?
=o)
