those are pretty sweet, but isn't it considerably smaller than the 6gc?

Not much different really. The 0-60 time is around 10s depending on how you read the stats and which year (the 2.0l is 6.8s - 1.0s better than the Celica GT). It a little lighter but there is hardly anything in it. MPG is similar.

It would be cheaper to paint your Celica siny blue wink.gif

Yeah, but you'll have to deal with the fact that it's a Mitsubishi...and an FTO! They're a bit ugly IMO. It's too bad they call the 3000GT a GTO here, I cried a little inside.

We have them over here. Yes, they are smaller than the celi's but they also have their own attraction to them. Where the celi's have a smoother curve, the FTO's have a sharper curve to them. i think they look good.

They can look good but stock wise is not so great but like other car models there are lower end ones and higher end ones. If i recall there is an AWD model and FF.
