the hook thing for the seat belt is good if you dont have people going in and out of the car.

I agree... Plus I think that it looks cleaner with out one, But my windows are tinted so dark I barely notice if they are dirty or not...

My rear window stays pretty clean. Are you parking under trees or birds??
I just don't get this "rear wiper" thing...they're useless and kinda ugly.

Just my $.02

I'd like it if the tC had its radio antenna in the glass of the rear quarter windows the way the xB does. Also be neat if it had VSC (that can be turned on and off) like the xB. Also be neat if it had an overdrive that could be turned on and off like the xB.

The xB, on the other hand, needs a sunroof like the tC, and an exterior temperature guage like the tC.

If you took the best from each of them you'd have the perfect car.

i want a cassette tape player to come standard.
just kidding

wouldn't mind passenger seat memory, a beep when you lock the doors, and fixing the program that runs the screwy stop positions for the auto sunroof (seriously, i have to press it once to open, again to slide back, then once more to open an inch?) wierd

I really don't see what the prob with the seatbelt is!

Two (or 4 or 6) more cylinders would be wouldn't hurt.

...not sure where they'd all fit, but I can dream can't I?!



Still... the 30mm cannon idea did sound nice!

I wish the tC had an adjustable seatbelt. I'm not short . . . I'm average, but the seatbelt just grazes my neck while I'm seated. It's a pain because I'm always trying to pull it downward, and also, imagine how my neck would look if I had an accident . . . if I'd even have a neck to look at afterwards. Eek!

If a tC came out of the box with nav, hids, and 6spd...it would be pushing the $25k mark...

I wish the center storage space can be lowered so that when I put my seats in the "lounge" position, it's all flat.

I wish they came with a Beltronics 995. Save us all a lot of trouble.

I wish it had a camera for everytime someone undershot the back seat and fell on their ___ on the floor (implying the rather spacious legroom in the backseat area)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That would surely be a crime against humanity. That high window sill is what makes the tC sleek. When I think of the sleekest cars on the road(G35, Mercedes CLS, even accord coupes and solaras) the one thing they have in common is the high sill. and I mean

I think we can all agree the car needed to have projectors, even if they are the halogen ones that are on the passats, suburus, and even cougars and integras. Not only are they just plain safer, they are also sexy and would make the H.I.D. conversion easier and less expensive. All cars should have them by this point.

i would like to see:
1. change 5th gear
2. projectors
3. smaller blind spots
4. a regular good ol fashion throttle cable
5. change the way the rev limiter kicks in...i hate how it just feels like the engine quits (though i already learned to shift right before i hit the limiter...)

overall i like the tc....but still not fond of front wheel dirve cars

so the tC had a "redline lockout?"
