Default If you had a choice...?

If you had to do it all over again, would you but this years tC or would you wait for the '06 model? And next, what do you think they are going to change in the new one?


I personally would stay with my '05........I kind of like the bewildered look of other people at stop lights and such. And I finally have a car that has everything I want in it. For next years model, obviously the minor bugs we've noticed so far will be looked at. I think it's almost impossible to get rid of all noises due to the roof. (Unless they make one w/o....) I mean, there's too much space between panels, all necessary for your "cool" sunroof. Other than navigation or a bigger engine, I can't think of much else they haven't thought of already.

Since the models are planned to be replaced every 3 or so years, it's highly unlikely they'll change anything with the exception of working out bugs.

Edit: I'd stay with my decision to get the 05.

Stay with the 2005, Toyota rarely changes anything on
their model lines. 1992 to 1993 MR2 had the greatest
amount of upgrades (if my memory serves me correctly).
Odds of any features being added during model run is low
IMHO.

i'm glad with my purchase now, but i hope they don't do anything really awesome to it and make me regret not waiting a few months.

it is a little early for them to make any bigger changes (like the RSX Type-S from 2004 to 2005) so i'm not worried

I don't think the '06 would have to be any more expensive. I imagine they'd stay with their pricing pretty close.

I like my TC... but i love the new Dodge Magnum and the 300C looks like a Bentley... I know these two cars dont even compare to the TC as far as in $$ ... being that said i like my low car payment and insurance.... insurance on a Hemi has to be huge... especially for a 21yr old
