I feel like if this forum weren't so "family friendly" I would be here a bit more lol. I understand not ripping eachother apart with racial slurs, but seeing a nice boob once and a while in the middle of squares useless banter would be nice.

beautiful truck. nice. Thanks! We love the tundras he had one before this and it was great. His old one was just a v6 though, this new one is the 5.7. It's pretty quick for a big ass truck. I tried talking him into supercharging it, so it would be as fast as his sti XD...... He didn't go for it This post has been edited by 1994Celica: Aug 30, 2014 - 10:01 PM -------------------- |

the chassis flexes and moans more than a two dollar whore, and the seats are a joke and offer no lateral support. Not that I have a notion you'll be swayed from your current opinion, but have you driven one besides your example? I think it might just be a bit worn. The chassis isn't "stiff" from factory but it's certainly a little more tight than the Celica's. The steering feedback and push gives away that much. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

I know, it's just funny. I'm sure they've fixed that and the paper mache tail gates.

The chassis isn't "stiff" from factory but it's certainly a little more tight than the Celica's. The steering feedback and push gives away that much. I've driven a NB which was better, but that's really not a fair comparison given the fact it was some ten years newer on top of the years of improvements that had been made. It's a twenty-five year old convertible, and my first convertible at that. I imagine the slew of braces to reduce flex and the hardtop to dampen the noise would make a notable improvement. Side thought; the steering is stupidly light on the Miata, I'd like to find a non-powered rack to convert it. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

My 90 with just coils handles extremely well. flat through corners, good weight in steering and great road feel. Hardtop on makes for a great little coupe, hardtop off adds the awesome noise of the exhaust and open top feeling i know and love. maybe you should try a few mods (which are cheap as dirt for miata's) prob starting with the all important driver mod (and more seat time) -------------------- 2015 Subaru WRX.

B, I'm incredibly hard to please. Though after hearing everyone talk about the Miata you can't help but develop high expectations. Provided insurance doesn't total it I'll keep it and work with it more, if they do I'll try a second gen MR2 perhaps.

I think you need a C4. Yeah, the interior is lacking a little but nobody buys a Vette and expects Rolls Royce luxury. Besides interior materials it fits everything you want.

Ew no, the C4 is pretty slow especially the early ones. Heck, the first C4's were as slow as a 6th gen 5spd GT! Later on they got better, but if you're getting one then get one with a trashed engine and LS swap it.

The '89-96 with the T-56 is fairly capable. '90+ had better interior, and the '92+ had the LT1 and got into the low 5's to 60. I'd really like a '92+ in black or that really nice amethyst:
