Pinachau! looks like some sort of japanese anime charater, not a big fan of the front, exhaust has a good trick, centered thru the rear! nice rimes, and 500HP AWD is diffently a reason to put up w/the cartoon front-end!

I heard it cost either 200,000 or 2,000,000 to make. I forget. But either way, I also heard it was EXTREMELY fragile and couldn't handle the power.

sorry goku, but you are a little late, I think everyone in the free world has heard about the ultimate celica. Or at least on this site.

My notes.
1. "Ultimate"? Says who? - It's a 7th gen ffs! 2. This is OLD (I read up on it ages ago) 3. There are several better 6th gens (not that I have links), I have seen 750-1000+ hp celicas. 4. If you hadn't noticed, I'm not a big fan of this car, Sure it looks strange and something new, but I've seen MUCH better 7th gens, not to mention 6th gens. Just look at the Rod Millen 6th gen, I think that looks better! Coolest thing about this car is that they did the awd conversion to a 7th gen! wouldn't that be funky!!

Are those really toyota logos on the brake rotors?
That car is pretty sweet though. The only part that's kinda so-so is the front end.

Sadly though, it's a really slow car. Don't ask me why, but it is. The Brake rotors are Toyota ralley something or others. It cost about $500,000. AND it did the 4th in like...13.5. (slow considering a 20k doller camaro will beat it stock.)

This car is all show and no go. the 500hp was what the 3s gte was doing before it was drop into the hood. but those tech guys could never get the car to run right. that way they never produced the dang thing.
