Getting a new car.. Options

[slvr_celica_GT_8...]

if i was buy another car id be either a silver 7th gen with the trd pakage or mabye a neon srt-4 i know like 5 kids who have them they can make serious hp and sound nice too

srt-4's are nice.. but personaly i would not but a domestic.. i was on some scion forums, people makeing 220 - 240 hp with a TRD supercharger, if you turbo it insted of superchagre looking at 230 - 260hp.. those are good numbers for a 2900lb car.

Dont touch the neon.. I knew 3 people that nothign but problems with low miles too..

You wont find anythign decent for what your looking at for under 10k... maybe an 01 celica gts

The rsx will be a few k more for an older one with more miles.

It depends on whats more important.... year, miles, performance... what every one else has...

The tc uses the new camry engine. Its a 2.4l 160 hp 160 trq, it does have vvt--i and its the same as 07-08, they just have a dif oxygen sensor and somthing else.. which kills the power curve a bit.

thats not true, i found a couple 05 TC's for 9k - 11k all with decent miles.

And also did anyone know that the engine in the TC doesn't use a timing belt? At least that's what i read.
