The part what the ovner of the "4" isnt only telling how his ccar is good and etc..

yes, the "4" is good thing, good looking and etc - but stupidly overpriced (IMHO). SuperStrut makes it even more complicated... Not counting CT26... Im working with lots of rally guys who Prepare / work / drive cars what are Turbo and AWD. I test drove / drove GT4 - All track and FOR ME this is not the car what i would want (i would LOVE to have a combo of a ST202 + 3SGTE engine and brakes from the "4" and LSD tranny).

This is just my opinion, and as much as i love all Celicas, but im not what "crazy' about the "4".. Maybe im just scared of the hastle what Turbo / AWD car could bring... And maybe im not what Rich to handle all the hastle??

This IS JUST MY opinion - all this based on MY experience with this car, and im not TRYING to make a statment here.

To be fair, if high running / maintenance costs scare you then the 4 isnt for you as it can be crippling to run/repair bearing in mind they are getting long in the tooth.
Mine has cost me £25 in necessary repairs (broken thermostat) in the last 12 months but I can also show you people whove spent over £5,000 to keep their cars on the road this year.
Im sure which ever one you do decide on, itll rock your world and become the love of your life

Hey the expence is with any car you have when they get to our age.....

Hey doGGy ! i thought the SS III came with super strut ????

Yes it did.... And on my SSIII first thing on the list is to Change it to good old Macpherson...

i've not driven a 6th gen without Super strut, but i'm told you can feel the difference when pushing the car ! why not just change it all now then your good for at least 150,000km ???

I would have to agree with everyone else and say gt4, but which ever one you like. both have their advantages and disadvantages, fewer with the gt4 though. Peace.

What I mean't about some of you americans are funny as is that some of you say I will move to whatever country has GT-FOURS just to get one lol No offence though.

Yep it is a different one much better than the last one i think

Magnum, you are very lucky to get to choose between
two stunning cars.
I dont get that choice over here
Whichever one you chose I'm VERY sure you'll
be HAPPY with

if you can afford it, get it and join the club ?

that looks so nice and clean mate

I'm very in love with cars, so I feel the need to move somewere were I can get ahold of some good ones. The GT-4 would be nice, but we don't get very many high end sports cars here. Cheaper ones at least. We don't get some of the expensive ones either though. TVR for example.

1 vote beams!


yea im one of those ST guys...

I went for a gt4 the one i was after the 98 was sold so i went and got a 97 GT4 in white ,i will get up some pics when i get my new wheels and projectors fitted
