QUOTE (Box @ Jul 11, 2012 - 9:33 PM) Well that's a shame. Agreed. They took a great car and gave it the worst clutch I've ever felt and the trans felt... delicate. I wouldn't tear through the gears in one, that's for sure. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

You know you own a 6gc when the first thing you do after a 5 month study abroad trip is vacuum your car, then change your rims, then wash your car and drive it just to drive it.
man does it feel good!

^ I should do the same one day lmao.
Imo, new cars in general don't have a nice feeling when pressing the clutch.. well, not only the clutch. They all feel.... feelingless. There's not much feedback like in our car. This post has been edited by dudeofchaos: Jul 12, 2012 - 7:24 PM |

When you are sick of telling Spanish people it's a Celica not a Theleka!
Though being Irish I do say Sel-leeeka! I believe in the States it's pronounced diferently. --------------------  |

Well I still like how we pronounce it on this side of the pond. Sel-Leeeka reminds me of how sleek the car is... everytime I say it!
