Talking SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

What car do u guys like the best out of the: srt-4, rsx -s or celica gts?

p.s :
please tell why u chose that ryde. and what u think about the other two.

1. rsx type s. Because i own one and like the oem kit and mods for it.

2.celica gts. i like the kits and with some nice rims it looks crazy tight.

3. srt-4. it's ok but its not my type of ryde. I do admit it's fast though.

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

Fastest: SRT-4
Handling: SRT-4
Potential: STR-4
Looks: (Opinion: RSX-S)
Luxury: RSX-S

For a performance sports coupe i'd go with the SRT-4, even though I find them ugly and uncomfortable.

For a daily driver I'd go with the RSX-S, its so much more refined, and plenty of power to go.

Celica GT-S: I dont think it has a major strength in any category, its underpowered and kinda a chick car. The only Celicas I like have a 3S-GTE power plant that puts the power down at all four wheels.

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

i also think the celica is a girly car. my roommate has one, so i dont joke about it. i would buy the rsx, because it is the most reliable and i am a college student.
-the srt4 outhandles the rsx.... huh?!!

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

I like the RSX-S the best because I think it looks the best, its honda, and I havent driven the SRT or gTS but I drove the type S and it is FUN to drive. soon as my credit is good and my record is clean (if I bought one now Id be paying 435/month with 1k ded.) I am making a trip down to the dealer and getting the keys ot one of those.

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

I'd pick the SRT-4 because of the sheer potential, with basic mods you can start ripping up most things that come your way especially if you go all out modding on it. I test drove one and loved the feeling. It was as if someone kicked you in the back. But I kept thinking, $30,000 (CDN) for a neon...

As for the others, I tihnkthe RSX has nice styling (the nicest out of the three) and fairly good performance but I still prefer the 4. The celica just isn't my car. It feels too easy to drive.

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

I'd also take the SRT-4. But that's only because speed and the potential of it is most important to me. That much performance for such a low price is awesome, and yeah it will outhandle the RSX. It doesn't look all that great =\ buttttttt none of the others stick out to be amazing looking in my mind either. RSX is most refined, and the Celica... well I don't know what Toyota was thinking...

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

Toyota was thinking about cash. I see far more celicas than rsxs or srt-4s. I'd go with a srt-4 though. Nothing new can match its performance/dollar ratio.

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

i wouldnt go with the celica cuz i cant stand the styling of it.

i wouldnt go with the srt-4 cuz yeah, it is fast, but it is still a neon in my eyes.

so i would have to go with the rsx cuz it looks the best and is pretty fast.

i duno about the handling.. i think the rsx will handle better than the srt4.. but then again in the US the RSX doesn't have a lsd right? well im not sure but the type r in japan will surely outhandle the srt4 with no probs.. then potential is right.. since the srt4 has a nice engine.. the new celica IS A CHICK CAR.. sorry celica guys.. but the new celica is't exactly a great car.. the only thing that appeals to me is the price.. and nice MR2!!

That probably has something to do with the number of years that generation has been in production. As well as your reason.

I'd take the SRT just because of the potential and 230hp for 20k with lsd is just too good to pass up, as long as you have the money.

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

ok srt-4 DEFINITELY doesnt handle better then type-s... the gearbox in type s is SO much nicer and smoother... the interior of the srt-4 is probably derived straight out of a pinto ( it blows) and the srt-4 looks like a neon with a hood scoop... fine it has more power, but honestly, who wants to drive around an ugly car like that when the type-s is 2.3k more?

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

even though id have to go wiht RSX personally Id say people go neon even though it is only 2.3k more for RSX< put that 2.3K into modding the SRT and you have a DAMN fast car, WAY faster than the RSX, even though stokc it already is.

see.. but then again the rsx is still N/A what happens when u turbo one? ok nvm about that hondas aren't made to compensate turbos really good.. i think a nissan engine would like to be turbocharged over a honda one.. honda engines are made to REVV

Re: SRT-4 , RSx type s or celica gts .

well, I saw a video of a boosted RSX-S against a S-2000, they started from a roll, and the s2000 jumped at first and held it for a second but once the type s started pulling it was leaving the S2000 pretty quickly.

i wish that was true with all nissan engines. the vg30de in the n/a 300zx doesnt take well with a turbo. its high compression and many other things make it really really (and costly) hard to turbocharge. where is the video at 94tegrs?
