I don't know if you will really miss the Celica that much with a ride like that. It looks great.

I love evos! i went to an evo tuning meet on Saturday and wow i was so giddy!

Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City
looks good. i should be getting the evo 9 next year around june.

Turbo install made possible thanks toTeamJ.D.M.officially 5SFTE junior member~*MuH NeW RiDe*~
yeah evo's are nice, a guy I worked with has a blue one (same blue one at the toy run) there so cool, love that sucked to the back of the seat feeling. plus they hug the curves like nothing else.

Enjoy, and congrats.
nice rides, but looks alone does it for me, and the evo can't hold ne thing in against the celi

Are people having some major problems with those things at about 40K? I heard they were even less reliable than the older turbo talon/eclipses. I wanted one till I found that out.

Well no way in hell it'll go head to head with a lamborghini .... biggrin.gif if that's what your thinking ...
They did a test in Japan & Europe with Evo VIII MR Vs. Gallardo which Evo VIII MR couldn't catch up to being head to head with Gallardo but the Evo VIII MR kept up with Gallardo by 1 car length which isen't too bad till the Gallardo lost control on the track which was pretty funny. Both cars were stock & it was hella interesting thing to watch.
Specs are:
Evo VIII MR: 276HP / 268TQ / 0~60 4.7Sec / 0~100 12.5Sec / 1/4 Miles 13.4Sec @ 104MPH
VS.
Lamborghini Gallardo: 500HP / 376TQ / 0~60 4.0Sec / 0~100 10.2Sec / 1/4 Miles 12.4Sec @ 112MPH
& If you think about it you could buy a whole family Evo VIII's iwith the money you were going to buy an Gallardo.
^ That video kicks ass, and he did out do that lambo pretty easy, just a bit slower (witch is fixable with the money you would save)

i like the power but here's what i hate about it: it's a tall car and it's 4-door. i parked next to one and damn...first i thought it was a minivan...gezzus...the look IMO is horrible...but then again...its a fast car...and everyone wants one...heehe hohohoho

agreed..

The Evo looks great to me, even if it has four doors. I absolutely love them, theres a DSM shop in my town and their company car is a low 12 second daily driven Evo in yellow with CF hood and gunmetal painted stock wheels. Its a beautiful car, and i've seen it go before and accelerates like a mother-effer.

If I worked full time, wasn't a college student and a musician....lol.....I would definately have one.

3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting.
i can live with the front end, but that evo's a** has nothing on the celi, and the a** is where its at smile.gif also not a fan of 4 doors, but id sacrafice a few style points for that kind of speed. have fun with that.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
yea the car hauls asss ..its fun n o god i luv the way how it can take turns like a champ...the ride is a lil strong but hey gotta give up somethin for better suspension...the gas is eww 18-20 mpg but will get better as i get a flash n other stuff...car will get a tbe soon..n its good to live near ams n devo tuning so yea..cant wait ..n thx guys
