No Brian the '05 gets the 7800 cut off......from what I hear.

Hey, stop called me with AMGs. There's no way I can afford one now with the new house. House > E55-AMG (or C55-AMG). I appreciate it though, and if I didn't just buy the house I might have considered it (I like the C55). Possibly if I sell my townhouse in a couple years I'll pick up a nice AMG with the proceeds, but that's still years away. There should be some nice used 2004 E55's by then.

Jim, when I am bored at work I love calling you and bugging you about the AMGs we have.

Mann Liz.. you and Todd could have come over this AM. I made cheese omelet w/ browned sweet potatoes, etc. Claudia is making stuffed shells later. What are you guys up to?? Give a shout if you have no plans. re... birds, we had about a dozen robins here a week ago so spring might be reasonably close.

:drool:

Not to turn this into a 'who hates the look of what car' thread but I totally disagree with the above comment. Many people find the Nissan Zs attractive. It's a nice car but that look does nothing for me. If I buy the 05, it will be based many things but not an 'I think it's ugly' comment/post on this celica site. Cheers

I agree the Z isnt that nice. The new Celicas are just ugly. I liked the 00-02s. I dont like what theyve done with them now. Way too boy racer. If you are going to get a GTS, definetly get one that revs past 7800... lift is pretty useless when you cant land it.

Parting thought...

My '03 is as pretty as it ever gets. I washed the road salt off yesterday.:gap:

Yeah I don't really like the Z too much either. Well, at least the tail. If Nissan mixed the front of the Z and the rear of the G35.... :drool:

I assume you are talking about the "Tsunami" Package? B/c the stock celica looks exactly the same. Man, that was a bad name for the bodykit this year. :ugh:

Because I can get a REALLY good deal through the dealer I work at. Not to mention they are selling way slow and theres some price reductions (what did they expect...?) I would only want a Legacy GT and thats getting out of my price range.

MSRP on a Legacy GT is like 26k. Just a little higher than a GT-S.

I saw a really nice black one, slightly lowered and tinted. :drool: They look DAMN good.

Yeah b/c all but one of their cars is FWD? Granted toyota hasn't done a thing with "performance" since the early 90's. That's why I want to buy a car that basically doesn't have a warranty.
