a 6th gen GT will easily beat a 7th gen GT.. but a GT-S.. they have bad turbo lag.. and maybe if you combine that with an automatic trans...
I think you mean lift?
I've seen one GT-S that used lift through all 6 gears and he was actually keeping up and was next to my rear quarter panel. Lift is actually badass on a GT-S and can screw some faster cars.
Dunno about the GT thing, their nothing against me but if a 6th gen GT can beat a 7th gen then thats cool.

a 00 GT-S will spank your ass, for sure. If the driver is competent enough..
if it is an automatic GT-S, you may be able to not get your ass handed to you so badly. auto gt-s's are slow as hell, because lift engages at 6000rpm & above. no amount of good driving can make up for that problem. they have to mash the pedal and pray for the best.
i'd try it out. if they have a 6 speed, and know how to stay in lift, you won't stand a chance. good luck.

An auto GT-S was no problem for me, and i test drove a TRD edition GT 5 spd. I don't think i have ever been more dissapointed with a Toyo in my life.

Correct, the A/C surely affects the hp.
The U.S. GT though is really so slow that there is no contest with the 7gen GT-S. The SS-III with the Beams engine would give the GT-S a hard time but i am not sure if it would win as i think the GT-S is prolly lighter and if 6-speed then it may also have better transmission changes.

I think the GT-S will win the race.
I agree with Neoklis about the weight,now about the SSIII VS GT-S it is a drivers fight and i think that if the SSIII have a good lounch then it will keep at the end.

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them allNo but I don't buy itLike anything you do, as anyone you areCause I'm...Ten Speed, of God's Blood & Burial
My 99 GT would own a stock GTS >

a manuel 00 gts would severely destroy a manuel 99 6 gen. i guess a turboed 99 would give it a run for its money. i would guess though that even a auto vs auto the gts would still win with or without the vvti kicking in.
A turbos 99 would win- our engines start out bigger than the wimpy 130 hp matrix. booo matrix engine
HEY!!! I HAVE A MATRIX!!! = ( an XRS though... = )
The Matrix XRS in P.R. get better quarter mile times than the GT-S. But they're heavier, right? Shouldn't they be slower?

who knows. there are guys with gts' hitting low 14's to 13's spending less money than it would take me to turbocharge my car... then I'd hit... what... 15's?

yep, every one of them that puts down killer times was using some kind of drag radial. The main one has Serious tranny problemsnow... and I have heard of several others with them.
01' GTS w/ drag radials, CIA, catback exhaust, and power fc, and only drivers seat, and no spair and stuff. he's running like 13.5sec. 1/4mile, i've talked to him b4, hes on like clubcelica.com or somethin
