The T/C has been proven to be pretty reliable to - It's been over a year now, and only 1 Engine, I think, has gone "Pop"

The only ones that have gone is when they REALLY get on them and push the shizzy out of them.

You can get probably get away from cops following you more with a faster car than it looks. But if you have a car that looks faster than it is...they'll be following you even more.

no no please, i think you should get the body kit. because its better to look good on the street and get attention.
forget being fast, everyone is faster nowadays so theres no use. go for the bodykit.




if only i had 3k to blow. if i could start from scratch again, i would skip the looks and go straight to big time performance

I'd go for the T/C or S/C. People who know what to listen for can tell what's under your hood.
