I say you win cuz those thing are slow as cold molasses and you probably have the same if not more hp and more torque. Is it just me or do those things look like a little cat that you just want to kick outof your way. P.S. I like cats in real life and would never hurt just those stupid Celicas though.

can you say slaughter fest! unless he has a RARE Evo 4 Celica, it's going to be a piece of cake. the 3.8 is a match for slightly older 4.6 Mustangs, so that little Celica isn't going to stand a chance
