I got mine with auto and did a swap for manual. (cost $300 for swap)
St is is good car, but tranny must be a manual if you want to enjoy driving. One more thing. If you taller then 6.2 you not going to fit into the GT with sun roof. I'm so glad I got no sun roof in mine. Good luck with buying Celi... |

Autos are dogs period. I don't think the power difference between
a gt auto and st manual at the wheels is going to be that big, also remember the st in stock form is lighter than the gt. If it is the anny, editon it may have more options than most STs. -------------------- JDM guy made me do it.

only real difference I've noticed is racing (kinda) seats and floor mats. Besides that a couple of decals and badges.
Is there really much more of a difference between the ST and the ST 25 anni? -------------------- |

Just trim, the 97 LEs have full power standerd not sure about
the anny stuff except the celica stitching in the seats exclusive to 96,97. I think all annys have it and some of the 97s have it. This post has been edited by 97lestyousay: Mar 30, 2007 - 4:24 PM -------------------- JDM guy made me do it.

QUOTE(95CelicaST @ Mar 30, 2007 - 10:26 AM) [snapback]541351[/snapback] ST is slow, and the automatic version is probably painfully slow, but the gas mileage is nice in ST's.
