  I think maybe in the US automotive AWD sport car market, Toyota GT4 have too many competitors like Lancer EVO, WRX STI......and seriously this is what i don't like to say....GT4 can't even beat them


Well just take a look at the type of psi them things are running at the smallest of fine tuning from front mount to raised psi from toyota would make the old yet sexy GT4 not only compete but win.

sorry....i mean the overall....like cornering, handling, transmission, suspension, brakes...etc....and i mean the "stock" GT4......

ive never driven those cars so i wont judge the handling or transmission
