Okay, I know everyone has there own opinion and I respect that entirely. But what I don't understand is how could someone say the xB has more "flow" then the tC.

Cybergypsy:

"No disrespect, I find the civic a ugly car also......I prefer the lines of a rx-8 or a XB or Xa much cleaner then those of a TC....

It just has no flow, and I have been waiting since the first time I saw the concept for th TC..."



I dont get it cybergypsy... maybe you like boxes then woman with curves.

Do you realize that with all the money you've wasted by buying a new car every month...you could've bought a Ferrari or something.

Do you really buy brand new cars then get rid of them a month later?

The new civics are dead ugly, with the square rear and overall generic design.
I'm 6'3 and lean and had about 3" to spare. those 5'8 complaming the tc is too small for them are probably just extremely overweight.
The tc is awesome for the price. and looks best in dark colors. the car looks like a monster truck at the ride height it's at and looks alot better with a 1.0-1.5 inch drop. Its nice and curvacious and also very sporty just the way I like em. however I have heard issues with creaking in the roof area etc so I'm waiting till after its been out a while to order one in Might just go for the 2006. The tc beats the civic in power price and design. I guess you can't compare the tc to a BMW or a infinity because those cars are in a different class price wise. prefference is also a factor the car is designed to appeal to younger individuals so that might be another reason why some of you might be dissapointed. My father owns fleets of cars on three continents cars ranging from a '89 testarossa and a '84 rolls corniche, to a 1976 VW beatle and a peugeot 406 coupe. The Tc is a great car. and looks much better in person but hey to each his (or her) own.
If I wasn't in college and had the dough I'd get two identical ones, one a stick the other an automatic. both in black pearl :D

The Lotus Elise starts at about $40,000. The Infiniti G35 is $30-35,000.

I'm curious what she does also....I mean, **** cannot pay that well, can it?

A new car every month....that would be like $30,000 x 12 months = $360,000/year. Now, unless you are pulling in a cool million a year, I doubt it.

ok so are we supposed to be impressed that you go out and buy a acar each month then get rid off it? all because you buy a car doesn't mean you know ____ about them besides what you can pull up on a specs website. Not hating or anything but seriously whats the point? If some one collected cars I might understand but why buy a car just to sell it after a little while. Do you test drive for some automotive consumer company or are you just trying to make friends. Do you really think the tC is really ugly? if you do then thats just unfortunate and very sad.

Hey Cybergypsy.. I saw on your spymac that you're considering moving to Pensacola.. ??

Let me tell you, I lived there for 8 months, and it's a ____hole. Just a bunch of military bases surrounded by a small, boring, white-trash town.

hmm.. not sure at all what you're talkin' about w/the AC. Drove 10 straight hours w/the AC in this car and it blew cold the entire time.
I know you had your hopes up for the car.. but what I'm not understanding is why.. You're used to RX7s, 8s, crossfires, and g35s.. those are all sport luxury if not two-seaters. I hate to sing the tired old song but.. the tC was never meant to compare with those cars.
Not enough room?? How do you figure? This car has the BIGGEST back seat for its class that I've ever seen. 5 days worth of camping ____ (tent, fullsize grill, clothes, sleeping bags, screen porch, lanterns, 3 fullsize coolers, etc.) fit perfectly into the car.
And best of all, with alllll that extra weight from the cargo, it still had enough juice it in for some great handling and acceleration.
I'm sorry you don't like your 'dream car' but try to get your hands on one for even a week or two. After two weeks of consistent driving, then come back and tell me it's a piece of ____.

Edit: btw, styling only goes so far. a car is a car b/c of what it's inside.. running the **** industry your whole life, that may be a bit tough to grasp =\
