Re: Planning to get a 2000 - 2003 Celica GTS

ture, the prelude does handle very well for a car with its weight, but the celica would still beat it up a mountin with thte same dirvers, if the lude was the same weight then i would put my money on hte lude for sure but its not...so...

Have you driven a Type SH through the twisties? How does it compare to a GT-S? I drove a GT-S down Mission Hills and it handled like a beauty compared to a Integra.

Definitely not the best handling car under 40k, but it does handle slightly better than the Celica because of its ATTS system.. I think it stands for automatic or active torque transfer system. The SH is slower though in a straight line than a base prelude because of the weight difference.
