Whats that black strip on the front wing? Either a secret prototype spoiler that you guys don't know about, or it's a license plate holder. You pick. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

That's a blacked-out USDM side marker, since I didn't really think clear ones would fit. Your indicators are placed further back on the wing, behind the wheel, and they're smaller and more rounded. Like Luke said, it looks turrible. This post has been edited by SwissFerdi: May 7, 2010 - 5:25 PM -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

Test drove this:
It surprised me. Had a very good ride, even on 22's, but it felt lighter than it really is. 425 horses obviously didn't hurt, and it felt plenty powerful, but for some reason not like 425; not sure why, it's probably due to the weight of the thing and also due to my inexperience with horsepower level. It did have a K&N SRI and Borla exhaust, so it sounded excellent. All in all, it really surprised me as a car. But, it also put the Celica into perspective. I thought I'd hate my car, but the only thing I missed is power. The Celica still feels much more nimble and strangely, just as refined. I also realize now that the sightlines are awesome on our cars, probably due to the seating position. Also saw this: '96 TT auto, bone stock. Seriously, no mods. Only 56,xxx miles, the dealership was asking 35k for it. I asked for a test drive, didn't work. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

Love the rating out of factory (friend has Daytona version), great car, but seems to be missing everything on twists. Great in a line though (still wont beat a T/A stock vs Stock)...from what I've seen personally. |

Today I got a picture message from one SwissFerdi of a red Toyota Supra and I was jealous.
Then I detailed the IS and took it for a drive through the country to try to get some good pictures. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
