Obviously the autos are quicker in the 1/4, you don't have any shift times cause it's petal to the floor and you just go lol
I could never drive another auto in my life, unless it was a truck, but even still haha

Car looks nice though! Congrats

the power more than makes up for it wink.gif it even handles better than either of my old celicas w/ suspension did. we will see how it is in the winter though. the celica may take the flag with that XD

Although I'm not a Mustang fan, I have to say Ford has come a long way in the last few years. Have you seen the concepts for the next body style? They're planning to do away with the "modern retro" look and go more European, possibly resembling the Evos concept. You just might have to trade up. smile.gif

i would never trade to that. they are getting rid of the live rear axle and going independent for the rear, and they are just copying what everyone else is doing now.. kindasad.gif

Your right there is something different, WOW I almost didn't see it. It was cloudy and seem to have rained (pavement wet) and now its sunny so you decided to drive the Celica for some real fun and leave home your back and forth car.

Did I figure it out ?

You know why late model fords are made so aerodynamic?

To improve the fuel economy of Chevy tow trucks.

I'll still never own one. After working on my brothers Taraus, customers Fords, and friends Fords, I will never, ever put that key on my ring or in my pocket. Horrible designs, cheap manufacturing, and ****ing oddball decisions when it comes to bolt size, length and location. However, if I was forced to choose between a Ford CAR or a GM CAR, I'd pick a Ford. On the truck end, GM has it won in my books. Chrysler doesn't exist in my vocabulary. "HEY GUYS! LETS PUT THE BATTERY IN THE WHEEL WELL!" "Hey guys! Lets design a transmission that can't figure out what gear it should be in! Oh! You're driving on the highway?! SECOND GEAR! No... no wait... FIRST! No.... FIFTH! Oh... you overheated. Guess the tow truck will decide what gear now."

I think ford builds a superb drivetrain and motor, but when it comes to the rest of the vehicle its crap. Im on my 6th or 7th window regulator on the 97 Towncar for just the rear passenger window. If probably replaced the other 3 window regulators and motors between 10-15 times combined.

Thats the thing I love most about toyota, everything on the body is very solid and well designed, dont have to worry about the doorhandle breaking off in your hand

Actually... up here in the cold north, that's what happens on a regular basis in the winter lol. The old plastic cracks in the cold and when people are dumbasses and pull hard to try to open the door, they snap right off. I mean, it's mostly user error, but I'm constantly selling door handles for Toyotas in the winter time lol

ive alwaysed loved fords and mustangs, ive been considering going back to my roots as well and picking up another mustang. as far as im concerned i believe ford has some of the best cars on the market right now as they produce veryy good power along with great fuel economy for the power they produce. the new 5.0 pushing 420bhp isnt bad at allll considering the 2010 camaro had a 6.2 pushing 426bhp lol plus who wouldnt want a 3.5l twin turbo v6 family car pushing 365bhp like the Taurus SHO?

great pick up man! even tho v6 it still has an impressive power!

I'm going away from my roots... once I get ride of my celica it will be the first time I haven't owned a Toyota... but I'll probably end up w/ one, maybe corolla, in April as my every day driver and park my SRT8 in the garage where she belongs to be brought out on nice pretty days. Once I buy a new car the SRT will be getting some street drags but not about to buy that with how much it rains down here and driving it everyday.
