Wheel arches are too small. Other than that, it’s “Boss”.
I have kids that I care greatly about. Therefore, I would not put them in a top-heavy, ungainly 550-hp vehicle.
I absolutely hate everything about this “truck” thing. If you want to rock 550hp, buy a car with a low center of gravity - like a Viper. This just has stupid written all over it. However, if you want to be an idiot, this is a good price point.
Knock 8 dollars off for a tube of JB Weld to fix that mirror base and.....it’s still CP. BTW 5,3000 for the Celica? Is that like a nickel ninety-five? I would have CP’ed it at that price.
I don’t understand the hate for these. These cars were a vast improvement in horsepower and handling over the C3 (once they got the suspension sorted after 84). First production car to hold over 1G on the skidpad. 74-75 convertibles are going for more than this. I think it’s a good buy for what it is with the low…
If I were spending 50k for a performance car, it wouldn’t be a 66 Vette. This car is just for fun and I have more fun clutching and shifting with the wind in my face.
I owned one for a few years. Had twin d’ellorto 40mms, turn 6 stabilizer bars, a header and a flow through muffler. Gave it about twice the power of a same year TR6. Lots of fun and surprisingly reliable for a Brit car with a Lotus engine. Once you get them set up correctly, they run for a long time.
