But its not.

In fact its probably wicked slow. Turning those back tires has to take forever.

I can't defend that at all haha.

but the simple fact is that he was going for originality not the everyday STI or Evo you see everywhere. And it wasnt done cheaply.

I guess we shouldn't pass judgment on everyone's poor investments.

Keeper1343 · 11-19-2007, 01:23 PM

Everyone knows that anything to do with our cars is not an investment, or so i would hope.

ozthunder · 11-19-2007, 01:24 PM

Really? I would consider a car you put a loan out for to be an investment. Sure, its emotionally binding, but an investment nonetheless.

Keeper1343 · 11-19-2007, 01:30 PM

how is it an investment when its value goes down as soon as you drive it off your lot.

martang · 11-19-2007, 01:37 PM

god I hate d-bags like this that give celicas a bad name.

Just b/c it depreciates does not mean it cant be an investment; there is a way to guage worth past lot value, and thats in the open market. Durr.

Honestly. That car is complete crap! Yes, he put good money into it...But he wasted his money. It is different because its such crap! First of all, the rear. yes he put big bucks into that setup, BUT ITS NON-FUNCTIONAL!!!! Next defending him for being different. He is different because its retarded, and nobody else would ever do that to a FWD car. He deserves to be made fun of because not only is it no faster than it was before, it is in fact slower now due to all that added weight. Show car? OK, but still looks dumb. He could have build a RWD car up for the same amount of money or less even!

SovXietday · 11-19-2007, 01:48 PM

That is the single dummest thing I have ever seen. He poured so much money into that car for absolutely no reason what so ever.

Charged SVTF · 11-19-2007, 01:58 PM

Must be setup for autocross lol.

aparently all you care about is speed... He doesn't deserve to be made fun of cause of his car. I have def seen alot worse than that. And it is original. Not like ur car where there are a million of them everywhere you go. ( not knocking those). My car... I leave my side swipe there because i know its all custom. You can't buy that **** and it makes my car original.

ozthunder · 11-19-2007, 02:00 PM

lol..what?

Vypurr · 11-19-2007, 02:02 PM

No, not just speed. Also functionality. Practicality. Aesthetics. None of which that car has. Literally, that is like taking my hand and chopping off a couple of fingers. Sure I am different now, but not in a good way. Sure I can still use my hands, just not as well. And yes, my hand is not as fast as it used to be, but thats not why chopping my fingers off is retarded!

*Aesthetics?

I bought my car b/c of all the above. It was sound as an investment, and I love it to death.

Vypurr · 11-19-2007, 02:04 PM

haha! spell check pwnt me.

whitezenki · 11-19-2007, 02:08 PM

Quit defending this guy.

Not only is it rice, but its stupid rice.

Can you imagine trying to go around a turn in that thing. Those rear tires are less effective then riding around with the ebrake up all the time.

ozthunder · 11-19-2007, 02:11 PM

I had a very, very pithy comment, but decided to hold my tongue.
