I don't know if you will really miss the Celica that much with a ride like that. It looks great.

yeah evo's are nice, a guy I worked with has a blue one (same blue one at the toy run) there so cool, love that sucked to the back of the seat feeling. plus they hug the curves like nothing else.
Enjoy, and congrats. --------------------  |

Are people having some major problems with those things at about 40K? I heard they were even less reliable than the older turbo talon/eclipses. I wanted one till I found that out.

Yeeeeahhhhhh.....I'm gonna have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there... Well no way in hell it'll go head to head with a lamborghini .... if that's what your thinking ...They did a test in Japan & Europe with Evo VIII MR Vs. Gallardo which Evo VIII MR couldn't catch up to being head to head with Gallardo but the Evo VIII MR kept up with Gallardo by 1 car length which isen't too bad till the Gallardo lost control on the track which was pretty funny. Both cars were stock & it was hella interesting thing to watch. Specs are: Evo VIII MR: 276HP / 268TQ / 0~60 4.7Sec / 0~100 12.5Sec / 1/4 Miles 13.4Sec @ 104MPH VS. Lamborghini Gallardo: 500HP / 376TQ / 0~60 4.0Sec / 0~100 10.2Sec / 1/4 Miles 12.4Sec @ 112MPH & If you think about it you could buy a whole family Evo VIII's iwith the money you were going to buy an Gallardo. |

^ That video kicks ass, and he did out do that lambo pretty easy, just a bit slower (witch is fixable with the money you would save)

The Evo looks great to me, even if it has four doors. I absolutely love them, theres a DSM shop in my town and their company car is a low 12 second daily driven Evo in yellow with CF hood and gunmetal painted stock wheels. Its a beautiful car, and i've seen it go before and accelerates like a mother-effer.
If I worked full time, wasn't a college student and a musician....lol.....I would definately have one. -------------------- 3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting. |

i can live with the front end, but that evo's a** has nothing on the celi, and the a** is where its at
 also not a fan of 4 doors, but id sacrafice a few style points for that kind of speed. have fun with that.
