Summer Ride - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #10662 20 posts Started by qatar11
So while the celica goes under the knife for the next year or two i need a ride in the mean time....

looks like i can get a 5 speed IS300 for a touch under 20K hmmmmmm........

I just got a new job so I'm pumped... it means less attention to TSR but it does mean proper bank - after all I am an EE >smile.gif>


what cars would you like to see in your drive for under 20K?

-Mikemjcoury@gmail.comTeam Reynolds StyleCelica BlogCelica WikiIt will take him a moment to realize that he's about to make a 180 degree turn at speed, but you will be ready for it. Brace for the g's, and fast heel-toe work.
you can't go wrong with and IS300... sweet ride

IS300 all the way.

hmm... I would go with something funner... TT supra's are coming down in price, u can find them easily under 20k now, in good condition. Or get something like an rX7. 255hp rotary is nice >smile.gif>
RX7, FD or FC
Mazdaspeed Protege
used Honda S2000
Toyota Scion Xa >smile.gif>
Toyota Scion Tc (when it comes out)
POSSIBLY a DSM
and one car that i'm not telling you, because i'd be jealous >smile.gif>
edit: or a used Mini Cooper S(oh what fun!)

is300. its luxurious but still sporty. not played out like beemers. and can be upgraded drastically if you so desire.
GTS. >smile.gif>

I/E on a 6GC = Still no power.
I/H/E on 7GC = I8URV8.

IS300 would be tight mike. congrats on the job!

you could always go for a MR2 for a summer ride >biggrin.gif>

k, whats your point. mustang GTs are SLOW. the only mustangs that are decent are the mach1, bullett, new SCed cobras and the new 05 model.

i worked for Mustang racing technolgies for a while, and yes, when they are retuned (because factory really DEtunes them big time) they are rockets. but stock mustang GT is SLOW. however just chipping them and removing their restrictive piping and they are monsters.

Haha I saw that someone suggested a Mini Cooper S. I don't know why but I find those things so strangly cool. I'd really like to go test drive one. They look like a lot of fun, especially after watching the Italian Job. I tried to talk my sister into getting one last summer but she ended up getting a Mazda 6. Those are pretty nice cars too BTW.
that was me, and i know! not only do they look fun to drive, but they're pimp.

plus they actually aren't bad inside...
mmmmm, boost >tongue.gif>
used RSX-S... then Hondata flash #4... will make one of the fastest n/a FWD 4 cylinder cars you can buy under 20k. Aside from that... IS300 would be the way to go. I'd be torn between the two honestly.
