ok well sence i love this forum, and dont really want to go anywhere else i thought i would make a build thred here for the tc.

so far the car has a header, s-pipe, and a full srs exhaust. the exterior is all stock besides for the potenza tires and painted black stock rims.
same goes for the inside. it has a sony double din, and thats about it.

i just bought 6k hid's... k&n panel air filter... a cool sticker laugh.gif ... and a yellow jdm fog light kit.

My girlfriend has a 2008 tC. It's okay - in that it is just a 2-door Camry.


After she has it completely paid off she's going to let me install Eibach springs and sway bars... then it might actually be fun to drive.

it's like the celica - good looking exterior and good torque. only thing that bothers me is the cheap interior. YES, i'll keep mentioning it haha. me and my wife were going to get one of those but decided to get the is300.

imo the car handles like its on rails.. because it has trd sway bars and potenza sticky tires.. the ride isnt bad for having the trd parts in it. but the thing that sold me was the color.. no camera can give any justice to the color... toyota has made a color that is the most crazy i have ever seen on a car in a long long time. other tha that, im on the fence about buying a lip for it... either carbon or abs plastic.. not sure yet.

Driving one is what made me not like them. They have a horrible interior and all the driver controls are so far away from the driver. underpowered and very wobbly as well.

It's pretty much stock though..

I mean intake, headers, and thicker sway bars are all nice tasteful mods. But to really say it you haven't driven a stockish one, it would have to be like a supercharged one with coilovers, etc IMO.

Cool color, I want it on my Celica.

i just drove a stock one...hmmm kinda a fail. handleing is ok but nothing to be happy about and the power band is ok but again nothing to be happy with. i want to take a supercharged one out for a spin, but all i heard about them is it was a joke.. thats why trd stoped putting them on the cars.
