I had to get a new clutch in my car so I didn't have it for a week b/c the shop was backed up. I did not know how much I would miss my car.. (94 ST). While it was in the shop I had the chance to drive all my roomies cars. I drove a 94 Honda Accord, 94 Integra, 97 Ford contour V6, 96 Jeep wrangler. I tell you from all those cars, my celica handled the best and had the 2nd best Accel (integra faster). I read all these posts how the celica handles so well and I tell you it is soo true.
The Accord took off slower than the speed of smell and handled like ****. The Jeep, well its a jeep, so thats a diff catergory(but it was fun to drive, I reccomed driving on if you get the chance). The ford was faster than the accord b/c of t he v6 but handling was **** and I still think my ST is faster off the line. It was slow. The integra had great pickup, but I didn't handle the corners as well as my Celica does. I also prefer the interior of the Celica to all the cars that above. The only mods I have are SRI, and front strut bar. I love my car soo much more now that I drove other POS's. Has anyone else experienced this and Loved your car more than before?? |

well, while that is true, you have to look at it this way are sports cars built to be driven daily? are they built for economy and reliability? that how i look at the eclipse turbos. they are built to be sports cars, not reliable commuter machines. but if they are left stock, or modded properly and taken car of, they are just as reliable as any other turbo car. before i got a celica i almost got a 2nd gen eclipse, but im glad i didnt for a few reasons. 1. i would have gotten an NA eclipse and that would be a waste of time. 2. i decided that my first car had to be a reliable one that was easy on gas and easy to drive 3. my dad hates eclipses because of all the problems my cousin had with his gsx. for its category, i believe that the celica is the best in every aspect except power. im already planning on getting another car, something turbo and AWD, and sadly, i cant get that out of the celica i curently have. i would have to go with a st185 alltrac, a 95-99 GSX, or try to import a st205 gt4 or maybe even a 240sx. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
