I dont take much part in the 6gc forums but spend time mostly viewing other peoples rides on this site..
So im keen on ur opinions on which car has better straight line performance, the Celi GT or the Mazda3 2.0l.. im curious because my friend has one and the specs are pretty similar. I think maybe my celi would have a slight edge with more low end torque, but the age difference in the cars might make a bit of a difference as well. Curious to know what u guys might think.. if u even care

QUOTE(darksecret @ Jun 7, 2005 - 4:33 PM) I checked car and driver but all they had was the test from the 2.3L which showed a quarter mile of 16.0, from the specs the stock GT would fall just short of the 2.3L and the GT would kill a 2.3 on a roll 30-50 in 11.7, plus it tops out at 118 and after 80 it just gives up where the Celica seems strong until 100. We should be looking at the 2.3L as some competetion because they mess up one time it's over.
