mp5 vs. celica
 
coming home tonight i pull up to a light w/ a bright red celica w/ 2 girls in it, i believe it wasn't the gt-s. light turns green and i gun it. i hit 40 and i'm like 2 car lengths ahead. at this point i thought maybe they aren't racing so i kept it at 40-45. right as i let off the gas, i see them coming up fast. my onramp for the parkway was coming up on the right but i was in the left lane. right as they pulled even w/ me i threw it into 3rd, blew by them and took my onramp with a huge grin on my face :D

oh...
 
even the base engine on the first year of the new design :( ? either way, i'm almost positive she watned to beat me, even if she wasn't flooring it. maybe her legs weren't long enough to fully floor the pedal?? ;)

or one of those girls that have no clue how to downshift, so they keep it in fifth gear, and floor it. lol either way you would have got rocked if they were trying to race.

yes even the new base base celica's are rated at 140hp and they use VVT-L similar to VTEC. The GT-S is rated at 180hp.
