How many threads are you gonna make on this topic (car or car)?

Anyways, GT-S, specifically, 2000 model. Do the world a favor, do not get a tC, thank you.

I know that the GT-S is better because it has +40 more hp than the base but whats better about the 2000 model?

the tc looks good but i am amazed by its weakness, a 2.4 inline w/ 160hp while the GT-S has a 1.8 w/ 180hp.

there are tons and tons of companies making turbo kits for the tc now adays. More are jumping into it too. I think full race is even going to be making a turbo kit for tc's pretty soon. Get a tc.
