The price for a 97-99 celica GT is right. I like the look of the body, and the fact that theres an aftermarket for the car. However, its pretty slow. 0-60 in 8.5 seconds isn't exactly heart pounding frown.gif

For about $3-4000 is there anyway to get it to around 200 horsepower? If you had $3500 to spend, and wanted to get this car to run mid 14s in the 1/4 mile, what would you do?

Thanks!

if you could afford 3.5 to 4 Gs on top of buying the celica... id just buy something else... saves the hastle, no doubt the car looks awsome and handles very nicely, its just alot of work to make the car streightline fast...
