i found out on when the car is locked you can unlock the drivers side door by just opening it. dont know if that is normal but this is the first time i've ever seen a car do that.

Are TC like my Camry where you can still control windows and sunroof for a period of time after you've turned the car off?
One feature I LOVE on my RSX (don't know if TC's are the same) is the auto down AND up on the window. Man, that's nice with a 6 speed and all.

One touch OPEN sunroof. Press once to tip it up, and press and hold for one sec and watch it open up. 
Found out by shifting and opening the sunroof up at the same time. Had to shift, let go of the open button, and it still opened automatically, LOL

Oh... also earlier in this thread someone was talking about the stereo getting louder or quieter depending on the speed of the car. There's a setting on the head unit called ASL. Press the volume button in and cycle to the ASL setting. Low/Mid/High are the options. I set it to low 'cause I find it annoying that when I come to a stop my stereo gets quiet and then accelerate and I can feel the bass thumping harder and everything getting louder. Cool feature though I don't like it.

1. if your mirrors are configured PERFECTLY, there is no blind spot (at least not for me... im 6'2 if that makes a difference).
2. theres a light in the hatch area!
3. rear seats recline!!!!!
4. its really easy to take apart and do wiring for (except for getting wiring to the battery through the grommet!)
5. i'm now addicted to the "double sunroof" theory
6. toyota reliability

ive known this for a long time, so im saying it for those of you who might not...
if you have an mp3 cd the stock head unit unlocks a option called SRT all it basically does is add more base(sounds good imo)
