Default Future tC owner.. wasupp!

Hello there, my name is Ryan, I currently have an 07 Sentra that I have done some mods to. The car was a 3yr lease and the time is almost up. Im 99.9% sure I will be purchasing a tC with in the next few months. I love the aftermarket support fot this car, and am looking foward modding the hell out of it. Anyways Ive been looking around at all your rides and am very impressed. I was going to get a cobalt SS s/c but they seem like they have big reliability issues. I just wanted to introduce my self and say hi. These are some pics of my sentra, that I will be putting back to stock shortly.

Welcome! Should be a nice change for you... I'm sure you'll love it.

Just a couple notes on your impending purchase: don't bother getting anything from the dealer when you order (except for things like the OEM lip kit, spoiler, or other major stuff). Nine times out of 10 you can find the same parts online, cheaper... and do them yourself. Specifically things like suspension, accessories, performance parts, etc. LOTS of choices out there.

As a side note, just be sure to read through the forum rules at the top and you'll be good to go! Good luck!

Agreed. Buy the car with no options and a 5spd. Install everything yourself and you will be saving a bunch of money and you can say you did it yourself.

The tC has huge doors compared to the Sentra so watch out. Don't have your passengers accidentally open your door into a wall or something.

yeah im planning on buying used with under 30k, and I will not buy it in auto haha. Ive been looking around a lot and itd be cool if i stumble across one with a trd exhaust or a release series, but really i dont care, as long as its 5spd and not purple or that light blue, ill be happy . My one friend has an RS1.0 and the other has a FM tC, and ive done work to both of there cars. I love how this car can be modified so easily. Even the damn body panels in the car are ment to be taken off for audio installs haha its great. I acutally went to a dealership by me the other day just to mess around, and to my shock the guy just threw me the keys and didnt come with me to test drive it. Haha i actaully got to see how the car drives. My friends yell at me if i drive there car to hard, so now i know ha.

Thank you all for the warm welcome.
