07 scion tc vs 03 celica gts turbo (both auto)
Ok so i have a scion tc auto, no engine mods, and my friend just bought an 03 celica gts turbo, now he's bragging bought how his is better and how it goes 160 and mine only goes 140, should i be stressin or is my tc just 100x better
#2
tell ur friend to race me, that'll shut him up. Tell him my car only does 120, but ill walk him
I seriously doubt he has had his car to 160. Top speed doesnt mean anything unless he is into salt flats or Daytona.

your friend is an idiot
07 tc > 03 gts
(even if its modded)
anyone can buy a cheaper used car that's faster
and to the poster above me
if your quarter is up to date, i doubt that the gts will shut up
i forsee a boosted gts being able to run low-mid 13s

Your tC doesn't even do 140.
But otherwise, he'll walk you unless you've got some kind of trick, like the red turtle shell or lightning or something because stock for stock, a Celica GTS has a MUCH better power to weight ratio. If you want to beat him, yes you should be stressing, because you won't.
But other than that, yea, your car is way better. It's new, and a better value. Speed isn't everything because, you really don't race your way around your daily commute.

actually he said '03. I agree with blown_xa. Race him, while you may have less horsepower than him, (160 v 180) you do have more torque (163 v. 130) then again you do have more weight... it'll be an interesting race. Like I said, give it a shot... BUT do it legally and on a strip not on the streets. The raise in insurance cost is gonna be greater than the entrance fee.

i dont know why half the people in this thread are not just flat-out saying the tc will lose. a gt-s will already outpace a tc. a turbo gt-s will just do that faster.
also, this is pretty childish to start with.

while it may not matter to some, (I have an xB I know the only thing i'll beat is yugo) to others, it matters, we each have our own priorities. But while it may seem the turbo will be faster, there are things to take into consideration, (gear ratios, weight, torque, drivers ability, etc...) to determine if he can shut his friend up, which... in the end is what the whole thing is about.
