Body kit, after body kit. That is the only modification I could find on a damn Celica. Sure, you could go out and get a air intake and an exhaust!!! Oh my God my heart is beating too hard now. I mean a whole extra 15 horse power and an even worse low end torque curve, where the hell do I sign up?
I know I could have went out and got a $6,000 Blitz SC or a Turbo set up from TXS. But, the transmission would have blown up or a flaming hot piston would go through my chest. Even better yet a 50 shot wet kit. Yeah, explain that mysterious coating on the burnt pistons to the Toyota warranty monitor.
So, in desperation I went out to test-drive some cars because Toyota let me down. It was between the WRX, Mustang, and SRT4. The Mustang made me thing of a POS. It only needed baby oil and dirty diapers in it to be a real white trash mobile. I mean the interior was two words GRAY PLASTIC. I felt as if I was in a freaking minivan. It was just missing the scent of a dirty **** diaper along with french fry grease over everything. I was wondering if it came with a set of concrete blocks to park on in my front yard. Oh and the back seat? A damn Vette has more of a back seat (only some will catch that). Oh and the engine, it is nice to know it is the same engine out of a Crown Vic with a cam job. What is the shifter a T-5? Oh damn in 20 years they could not improve it? All in all a low class fast two door box from Ford. Uhg I hope the 2005 redesign is better than that!
The SRT 4 is like this: Sure stock for stock it will beat a WRX. It was a fast ride, I give Dodge that. But, no AWD and it is built by Dodge. Let me show you the “breakdown” schedule:
15,000 oil leak if not sooner
20,000 air conditioning failure
21,000 drivers side door lock breaks
25,000 dash cracks
25,102 Throw a rod
25,102 ˝ Paint fades and chips
25,103 Time for a trade!
27,502 Turbo melts like the wicked witch of the west
Other than a straight line, it has nothing. The seats made me go to my chiropractor. The smell of the cheap plastic interior made me vomit. Try driving that POS in the rain!!! Even with LSD, it would suck. All in all not bad for $20,000 (being honest), but if we read the past it will still be a Neon and act like a Neon. If the thought of ever owning a Neon has crossed your mind then read car reviews on the web and they will sober you up big time. I read one recently where a SRT 4 was already leaking oil within 200 miles of use! This is only a sign of things to come. It would be cheaper to buy a motorcycle if speed is all you want, because other than that there is no reason why a human being would buy such a POS! I know an Impreza is an Impreza. But, damn it is built to a way better standard.
Here is a question!!!! Name the first vehicle that comes to your mind that is the worst POS and it is not a GEO Metro!!!! I bet you just thought NEON! See, how could you do that to yourself.
Anyhow, I got a Silver 2004 WRX 5 spd for 25,000 out the door with turbo gauge, shifter, shifter ****, arm rest and bla, bla, bla. I am happy. Say hello to VISHNU STAGE 1 in 3 months! No bodykits to worry about and its not a Neon.
I am happy to have graduated to the WRX. I am also drunk right now. And I thank all of you for this web site. Finally some sort of things called torque.

I just got an 04 WRX and it's the best. I've enjoyed every min of it so far. The seat thing is true I don't ever have my wallet in my back pocket anymore just cause it hurts after awhile... All in all this is a wise investment... The power is just astonishing... I can't wait to mod it already... What do you guys suggest I do first? Any suggestions are greatly appriciated...
