Yes, fellow members it is true. After seeing the SEMA pictures it appears as if our car is the next civic. The hideous body kits, fart can mufflers....sixteen-tier wings and outrageous paintjobs and graphics have all made their debut on the TC at SEMA.
I was hoping that our cars would be different, that the rice-crew wouldnt want to bother with the tC....but i should have seen it comming. It does have all the makings of the new KING-O-RICE mobile!! Low price, decent body lines from the factory, and marketed towards the "young and hip".....the tC's future was dictated before the first one rolled off the factory line in Japan.
Soon you will start to see generic tC accesories at AutoZone and PepBoys. Sometimes on the highway, you will have a ricer-fly-by done to you.......by the local ricer with the tC that looks like it could take off from a runway at any moment. If you have small children, WATCH OUT!!! <---- i saw some bumpers at SEMA that could swallow a small child!!
Please, everyone join together. Dont let this site become a haven for ricers....discourage fart cans and 4-tier wings with widebody carbon fiber kits and super-duper-awesome vinyl graphics. All of these things together will degrade the reputation of the tC....and will eventually degrade the repuatation of its drivers (just like what happend with the civic). Flame on!!!!!!!!
