Teh TC isn't that bad of car, but I think you'll find getting some of the other cars mentioned here are going to be a bit tougher to drive home.

Not that you didn't already know that.... but yeah. I would like a bunch of the cars mentioned here pretty damn.
The Evo would be fun sometimes, but you can't haul ass all the time. Not unless you can afford the tickets and accidents. :dunno:

drive it and see if you think it is underpowered. It has plenty of power and it has more luxury than many cars in the mid 30's to 40K have.
