* I love the roof, but I keep thinking my head is going to be red hot after a drive, no matter how much you tint it.

* Not enough released, month-long back orders for tC's

OR

* Everyone will have one

I hope so. I'm not too concerned with the AC. I live in Florida but I never seem to drive with the windows up/AC on. I just love the windows down with the AC on =p

LOL

High intensity.

the tC will be alot more roomier than the Celica because the tC is much bigger than the Celica.

I'm afraid it'll handle like a pig since it's so heavy.

Headroom also.

And, there are definitely going to be some retarded people driving it since it's such a good deal.

I'm afraid I won't be able to sell my current car before my tC comes in. Anybody looking to by a 99 Audi A4????? Didn't think so.

If you are, you can go to www.cardomain.com/id/raceuintherain

I fear that I won't like the seat material. I like the soft velour in my Legacy, not rough 'sport' fabric, like in a WRX. Maybe if I sat in it for awhile, I'd like it? Either way, awesome car!

I'm thinking that everyone will eventually have one. Like the Honda civic. Boring after a while. My sunroof got cracked when I lived in Illinois. It was about 1/3 the size of the tC. It was very expensive to fix. I can't even imagine how much it will cost on the tC

I have to comment on this because everyone keeps mentioning the Civic thing:

People, the Civic has been around for decades and has been a popular tuner for almost two decades...I don't think you are going to have to worry about the tC hitting critical mass with the mainstream crowd for a very long time. Even if it is massively popular in the import crowd, I doubt sales for the tC will top 100,000.

That the car will come with those god-awful, dangerous crappy Potenza RE92 tires -- requiring an immediate change at an additional expense expense of $500 - $800)
(Or more if you're a performance fanatic). Less of a 'bargain' then...
