Default Supra vs Celica

Anyone Ever Raced A Celica On The Streets And Were You Successful?

99% of the time i see one far away and when i go behind him, he turns lol and never get a chance. I always hear their loud exhausts, trying to show off.

*no offense, do you think a celica is a girls car? cuz i think it does lol*

Why do fine girls be in celicas with their bfs, yet none in a supra with their bfs? no offense again cause half the girls i meet arent fine and wont look good in my car =(

__________________________________________________ ________________

Do you feel that loud exhaust and a BoV is intimidating?


Opinions and Experiences PLEASE

Never raced one and haven't seen any on the track. I think the newer ones are front wheel drive (which I dont like.. cause Im old.. ) They are a bit lighter than a Supra and their engines are smaller.. but I imagine you could find some very respectable ones if the owners had a mind to play.

N/A Celicas, old and new, are pretty weak. Beat the pulp out of plenty of GT-S Celicas in my N/A MKIII.

I'm on the celica forum since I also have a 2000 celica gts 6spd. The car is very light(2500lbs) and does 180 hp out of a 1.8L. But the problem is the max power hits when lift kicks in around 6k rpm and max hp @ 7800. But like any car it is as fast as you can drive it and put money into. On the forum people have built 500hp plus with a turbo. A supra may be a beast but I can drive my celica all day and have fun taking the turns while getting 26mpg on average. And to say you beat a gts is very general since many of the 7th gens are auto and can't really use the power band.
