Hell ya! That tank will hold up to those college parking lot bumps and dings. Driving a new car to college is not a good thing for the health of your car.

 

yeah i agree, i mean personally i'm not fond of the car (sorry), but i'm glad i didnt have a tc at school with me...... I had a car there that stood out from the rest it was a cute little probe lol, but i was always worried about it being broken into or vandalized.. And the tc is a HOT car right now, i mean if you got in in a year or 2 after the hype is all done, people would be more likely to not pay so much attention

But at this point my tc is always gettin looks or compliments which is good, but you dont want those college drunks or thiefs payin attention to your car.

 

Hey, you can't beat the price (free gift). And you can use the money you were gonna put down on the tC for some rims. That Benz would look TIGHT with some chrome 20s!

 

College parking spaces are no place for the tC. You are almost guaranteed to either be hit, dinged, or vandalized. Take the 560, it looks great and will fill the need. 2 years from now when you dont have to worry about some drunk moron falling on your car, or some idiot that is in too much of a rush dinging it, then you can look for a hot new car like the tC. I know you want the tC bad, as a recent college grad, I too wanted a sweet car so much it hurt. Instead I dealt with my family's old 89 corolla, and it was definitely the best choice. It did the job and saved a TON of cash and heartache. I'm sure you probably have the maturity to own a new tC, but look around you at all the other students, do you think they have enough maturity also? :?
