General Comments:

This car is very tough. She went about 20 miles on one spark plug!

However, it blew the catalytic converter. (You should have seen the fireballs shooting out on the highway.)

She needs a lot of work, but it is well worth the price!

Faults:

Major rust inside both rear wheel wells and rust on the rear hatch that is noticeable.

General Comments:

I love this car.

These Toyota's seem like they last forever. I am currently running at 270000kms and its still smooth sailing. hopefully it will still be running in the 400000. like so many other toyotas.

The rear wheel drive is perfect for launching and drifting alike.

The car handles better than any car I have driven except for the MR2 I used to own. I can 90` corners at 50kms if I want to.

These older cars respond very well to performance mods. I know cause I'm a weekend racer.

Overall I wish they still made cars like this now days.

Faults:

Completely new suspension, but at 200000 plus not exactly a shocker and speedometer cable.

General Comments:

I am just starting to spoil her and am having a blast, it is the most comfortable car I've owned and with the way it handles who cares about no power steering.

Faults:

Worn steering rod ends - got new ones.

Battery died - got new one.

Driver seat badly worn - needs replaced.

General Comments:

This car is very responsive and corners great!

I LOVE the way it looks, beautiful black.

I had some decals put on it, and it really gives it a racing look.

Mods I'd like to do...

Open air intake mod

Doug Thorley headers

New exhaust system (for more HP and better sound).

Wider tires.

Have wheels professionally polished, powder coated, clear coated.

Get it tuned up soon

Thinking about more engine mods to make her really fly

Faults:

So far nothing major.

I rebuilt the motor at 198K miles which is when I got the car from my parents, other than that minor things.

The rust on the hatch (which is typical for every single one of these cars made) has been taken care of fairly well.

General Comments:

The car isn't fast like a V8 muscle car, but it has a lot of spunk in curves.

The interior is great, the GTS seats are the most comfortable I've sat in, and the power locks, windows, mirrors, and sunroof all work perfectly.

If you are out to beat rice boys with rice, this car IS the original rice, and easily beats riced civics, eclipses, integras, etc.
