If I really have to consider buying a car right now, with MP3 & MSP out of the picture, tC would be my choice as well. And the car is much shorter than I've anticipated when I saw it at the dealer. Looks very stylish both inside & out. Especially love the GTR-ish front end. Not a big fan of the GTR look, but the tC somehow made it more appealling to me. And I totally dig small cars. Good power, good supercharger & TRD factory support, Toyota reliability, cheap $16k+ price tag. It just seems like a package you can't go wrong.
I am a sucker for aggressive/rally looking 4 door cars (dream car EVO V), so MP3 is more like my cup of tea. But if you dig two door coupes without the need of a lot of power, tC sounds like a really sweet deal.
