Test Drove a Scion tC, Hadn't been in 1 before Options

So as I've recently gotten a new full time job, etc etc, I'm in the market for a new car. Well not necessarily NEW, but either a brand new car like a tC or WRX or something or keep the Celi as a DD and get a toy like an MR2 or an older Corvette.

Well the test driving started today, I drove a tC. It wasn't with all the options I like, and it had an automatic, but overall I didn't like the car. I could definitely tell that the frame was taller than the Celica and it was pretty mushy in the corners. The steering was too sensitive at high speeds and in cornering I had a hard time feeling where the car was going. Power was good, not fast by any means but would outrun my car lol. All the luxuries are nice: panoramic sunroof and glass roofing, stereo, hatchback, wheels, looks, etc, but in the department of driveability I give it a thumbs down.

Maybe it would be better with the TRD suspension, I don't know.

And for upcoming reviews I'm looking at a 93 Corvette this week and probably going to swing by the Subaru dealership tomorrow to see what they have in stock.

Any other cars out there that I could look at? Like I said if I get something like a 'Vette or an MR2 it will be a garage queen and I'll put some of the leftover money into the Celica. I'd like to keep it something Toyota, or at least foreign, but after driving my neighbor's 94 Corvette I'll make an exception for them lol (and there's like 15 in the area for sale, all under 80k miles, under $15,000)

I personally liked the scion tC. I thought it drove every bit as good, if not a bit better than a stock 6gc celica.
