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?? |

I've been bitten by the Dodge SRT-4. It's faster than most every car on the road, and FAR faster than the big time imports= Hondas Acuras, and even the WRX. With a little tweaking, I could spank camaro's in one! I realize that the handling isn't near the celica, but that can be fixed to some degree. On the other hand, it would take crazy money to get the celica anywhere near the SRT in the performance area. Even then, my drive shafts would explode, so.... I don't know. Maybe I'm thinking outloud.
