I am shopping for my first car and i have narrowed it down to two cars. A 2002 or 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer OZ Rally Edition or a 2000 or 2001 Toyota Celica TRD. Which one do you think would be better?

the celica easily, if its a gt-s you are talking about, it will be faster, handle better, and be much more reliable. not to mention its not ugly like the lancer. non evo lancers suck.

Between those two, the Celica easily. Like blakscorpion said, non-Evo lancers are terrible. The Celica will be quicker, more reliable, better looking, and better in every way except space. Now, I personally would get neither. I'd look into an Acura RSX-S.

^ yea, the rsx-s is a fine car. performance wise it and the celica are very close, it really depends on which one is more asthetically pleasing to you.

Thanks for the tip, that RSX is a hot car. Any other cars that u guys know of that would be worth looking in to?

u can get a celica gts for under 20k. granted the lancer would be a little less insurance and having 4 doors has its advantages/versatility
...but screw it! the celica is quick reliable and sexy!

For a first car...are you paying for the insurance and gas? If not, then the Celica...if not, then maybe the Lancer OZ if you dont have a high paying job.

If you're looking at a celica, then there's no reason why you shouldn't also take closer look at the EP Civics. The Type-R cars are simply bargains for what you get and is in my opinion, much better than the comparable Celicas.

Will daddy buy you your first house too? How much allowance do you get?

I don't wanna say unless you say how much have you driven in your life so far? and who's buying the car? You, dad, grandma?
