The GTS has most likely around.... 150-160 Wheel HP. The SC brings it up to 200whp. That's not bad. And yes, 4500 is too much to pay for a SC. BUT, it's far less than it would cost to 3s my car and add a stick. And I bet the 7th gen would be faster.

no i gots to dissagree with u on that. 3sgte would be faster especally if u got one outa a st205, crank the boost up ull own alott of cars out there.

I don't like the high revving engine ( reminds me of civics etc all hp at like 7k nooo torque). Plus, I think it looks like a door stop to me, way too fat in the back and the headlights look ****y. It just doesn't look very refined/ high quality anymore.

My friend has one and I don't like it at all. His front window is as big as the skylight on my dining room.

Also -- they look the front end crashed into a brick wall going 180+ miles per hour..

i test drove one and liked the way the engine loved to rev high but took to long to get some power out of it maybe i needed to get use to it
but first impression was not that good

Don't get me wrong now fellas, I would much rather have my 6th gen. But, I give the 7th gen props. It's cheaper and faster stock than any celica in america since the all-trac. (I just hate they sacraficed looks and fit\finish) I think the quality is still there though. God knows the engines (rev=8000) won't last as long as ours though.

well I like the look of the 7th gen. I don't think it looks better then our 6th gen. as for performance it think they are great. I would buy one just to have it as my second car.

The only thing i like about the 7gen is all the aftermarket support that came out for it.
If that damn movie would have came out 2yrs earlier we would have hella support for our cars.
