Yeah. I was selling a camry when I found out that we had it and it was ready to drive. That was the fastest car deal i've done I drove it through some twisties and on the freeway at around 80mph. It was very quiet compared to my camry. Hardly any wind noise at all. Rode very smooth even with 215-45-17's. It definitly needs to be lowered with stiffer springs and struts, and a swaybar but it sticks to the road almost as well as my camry. It will handle alot better than my camry when those suspension mods are done. There was plenty of power. I'm sure that the tC 5spd is faster than my v6 auto. There is plenty of headroom for the driver and front passenger. Tall people in the back will have to recline the back seat for better headroom. The brakes were pretty good. But a big brake kit would be nice. Shifting was very smooth and the throws were relatively short. It was very easy to lose traction in first gear, you can chirp second and third. I can't wait to get one of these cars.
