Will you pay 30k for an SC celica? Honest, most Americans aren't crazy about Honda/Toyota/Nissan sporty coupe/hatch over 20k.

There are people who even complains about road noise and "harsh" ride of the tC. For the record, the tC feels like a smaller carmy.

ps. tC is NOT a performance car whatsoever. At best it's a nice little hatch that rides very nicely, much like a faily size sedan, without the homeyness. And it rolls around a corner like a fat man down a hill.
