yeah, 1st car as the car you really really want is a BAD idea. Unless you have owned a car before, managing and maintaining is all learned with the 1st and 2nd car. You can come into this forum and ask many questions but ultimately it will be you taking care of the car. I suggest learning from an older car that you wont mind getting dinged up, or damaged.
Oh, and MANY people feel the tC is a girl's car. In my area, mainly females are seen driving these around and most are left stock.

I'm just making sure that she's cute enough to drive a Tc, I'm policing the community, just needing to know she's on par. If she fails she should buy a Corolla though. You should be thanking me. Full body shot or maybe some swinsuit pics would be great btw.

yeah, everyone's been telling me that a tC is a girl's car. yet i see a lot of guys over here driving 'em. i've been looking for a used car because i thought that getting a brand spankin' new car wouldn't be such a great idea either, but then it's really hard to find a car that i like. && i REALLY don't want my first car to be a manual. which is one of my main problems right now. also, the color. i'm looking for either a silver or a charcoal/metallic gray kind of color. not blue, or blue or some [out there] color like.. red? i don't know. i like dark colors. or closer to black. like silver or dark gray.. or well.. black.

Look into consumer reports. They say quite a bit of good stuff about the tC. Also, look into MSN Autos and such. I think I convinced my parents to let me buy a tc (even though i would pay them back money i borrow)... Now I just have to sell my car (son of a _____)

Geez my parents put my ___ to work so I could buy a run down 85 jeep cherokee. That thing was safe because it was a slow tank. When I have kids I'm gonna do the same thing. I think I'll get my son a International Scout those things are sweet rides when a little TLC is given to them.

how can you guys possibly have a hard time having sex in the back of a tC, just fold down the front seats and make the "social area" and then you have all the room in the world.
