Newbie Hello Options

[Chunky-Monkey]

I'm new so I'd though I'd say hi.

I'm seriously looking at a '98 GT-4 , but don't have the funds just yet.

I drive a Toyota Mk1 Mr2, and am looking for a winter car. The options were:

Scoobie :> Too expensive for what it is.
Evo :> Close very nearly put my hear on this but don't really want a 4 door.
Pulsar GTiR :> Would have been this but abit too old.
Celica GT-4 :> Looks like it tick all my boxes!

I need some history as I have lots of questions:

What are common problems?
Do they rot?
What trim levels did they come in?
What factory extras were there?
What sort of prices are they?
What 'upgrades' could they do with? i.e the Pulsar could do with a brake upgrade cos it doesn't stop that well
Does it have the same sort of driving position as the mr2 where your sat 'in' the car rather ran on it.
What are they like in the Ice / Wet?
Does the power suddenly BANG! in when the turbo kick's in?
Where is the best place to import one from Japan or Oz?

Probably loads more on there way but that will do for now.

Brill site by the way, someone pointed me in this direction off of TOC.

Cheers
