I had a 87 ST, and that was a fast, zippy car. I had to sell it and now i bouht an 95 ST. I assumed it would be faster or at least the same speed. However it is slow, a 87 is much faster in accelaration. Do I have a probelm with the engine? Or is this just the speed of the 6th gen STs??

the 7th gen celica gt-s has 180 hp the matrix has different engines in certain levels the XRS matrix and pontiac vibe gt have the same engine as the celica gt-s and they all sit at 180 with but the high redline of the cars is ridiculous they are hard to beat cause they keep goin and never have to shift well hard to beat in an ST
