I too think the tC looks like a Tiburon. But it's a cool little car....my girl said she'd rock it.

ahhh.... I know this is comparing styling... but took a ride in 1 yesterday with my brother driving, and it's quicker than I thought it would be....
but it is a bit odd looking IMO, so Civic coupe for style, tC for speed.

UTICivic- i saw a huge infomercial on that UTI program...seemed cool. it also seemed kinda sketchy. trying to pull you in to their school with all these luxury cars.

I like how toyota is handeling this oem ricer customization. at first i thought it would take all the fun out of modding...then i considered resale value and realized it might not be so bad to have a cookie-cut car to sell back for a lot more than you would get for a modded civic.

i have always been kindof self conscious about my big butt. the civics trunk is just wayyyy too big for the rest of it. its like if you look at the size of the trunk it looks like the size of the whole middle of the car on a 2 door. On a 4 door it doesn't look so big. i love everything else. oh yea. civic looks better than tc !!!

I prefer Civic styling to the tC styling. But the tC beats the Civic in so many categories.

The only Tc is saw that i liked had a crazy body kit and big and very WIDE rims on it. It was on here a while ago...lighter green. Even tho the front bumper was cut and all ugly after they messed with the kit it looked good everywhere but there and under the hatch.
nice tc but still i wouldnt want one normally unless i was really broke and wanted to have a decent car. Yes i consider tcs and civics "cheap" cars...like a car to beat the hell out of and love at the same time.

no way, i had a 2002 EX, and i liked it, it was ok, The *** is to big, the Interior is cheap looking, and the car is ugly.... the older ones look alot better, The newer ones look odd, the *** is so big, and its so Plain looking, The Tc has Style to it, i dropped mine, have the little spoiler, and Lip kit, and its hot, it just needs a 20% tint and it will be hot,

i dont know, we all have diff taste......and the sun roof is sick, the top looks like Glass, and u cant even tell there is a Sunroof, untill the roof open's up,
only Complaint about the car, is the Front grill, i want something diff. But i love it, and i do not miss the EX at all!

ahhh no! To each his own, but the tC takes style cues from some of the coolest looking cars on today market (BMW, INFINITI, etc.) The 7gen looks are getting kinda old now, I saw 10 7gen in like 10mins, than i see a tC and I go , looks so freakin cool.

I like both cars.... but i really can't stand the rear on the tC (reminds me too much of a saturn ion rear/ altima ish).. but i like the interior/front/glass roof/ and good price for all that you get

My g/f got a brand scion TC last month. it drives really good. lots of room and the glass roof is pretty awesome. She got the automatic instead of the 5 speed but still nice. She is not into racing or anything. I think Scions will be turbocharged in the future. I dunno, just heard rumors

The tc is a better car than the civic especially because its cheaper. The fun part is, beating a tc with a shitty 127hp engine. I raced the tc on the freeway. I gave the tc headstart, and he still lost to me.
After he lost, he stayed way behind me out of my sight because he didnt want to lose again.
its cause i had nitrous though =X[/QUOTE]
If you had nitrous then your car is not running 127 HP. A stock TC will probably beat you.
