Default Few questions

First, how's the performance of the 6 CD changer? like the time switch between CDs, and also is the player good with playing MP3 songs? is there any skips or problems playing MP3 songs? also any delays on any commands???

Second, how does the interior feel?? did any of the tC owners find anyting easy to break in the interior?? (cuz when i look at the demo, the handle just fell off when i was trying to get into the back sit), or is there any noise make from the sun roof while driving, etc....

Third, the performance of the car. if some tC owners can compare tC with their old car in terms of performance like handleing etc....

thanx for the reply

1) i got my TC wit the bazooka sub. i dindt want it but it came wit the car.i dunt have the changer. mp3's r fine. jus the song text or titles dont show up to well. n it kinda lags a lil whil switchin songs between mp3's. sound system is good for FACTORY STOCK. (i use to have 2 12's in my old car)

2)im not a relaly big person so the seat is a tiny tiny bit big (compared to a racing seat) but its comfortable. but not always. back seats are ok. but everyone seems to lik the reclining part. sun roof creaking, hissin frum the engine (sumting with the throttle body i tink) nothing broke yet. but overall, problems dont occur often enough to get annoyed or scared.

3)ahh i use to drive a 94 isuzu trooper (SUV) so goin frum and SUV to a coupe... BIG BIG DIFFERENCE. i've pushed my car to the limits on handling. its good stuf. im just waiting for new suspension parts to arrive. car is very zippy. no need to rev high for power but then again, the car has a low red line. (well, i tink its too low it shoud b 7 or sumting).

1) no Idea, didn't get the 6 disc. Single disc plays Mp3s fine.

2) I've had several rattles. Loose panels, broken seat belt, and some other stuff. Sunroof has windnoise past 70 when closed. Sunroof also creaks and moans going over bumps and uneven road.

3) Coming from a 500+hp awd eclipse and a toyota tundra. tC feels slow compared to both. Drove the tundra again the other day and was surprised how much faster it felt than the tC. tC understeers like crazy. Springs/sway bar should fix it.

i bought the cd changer and its pretty good. There is no lag time between changing of individual songs on mp3 cd's...but there is about a 3 or 4 second lag between changing of cd's. So far there are no skipping or problems like that...and the player works fine. I was considering buying an aftermarket changer that i would install somewhere in the back...but i'm happy that i got the changer from scion and that its in-dash. In my opinion...the changer is a good buy.
