It's not a WS6 (they seem to be a dime a dozen around here) so all you rice haters can just go away mad. This is my daily beater which hasn't let me down in 16 years. When I want to do something besides sit in traffic I get one of my other toys.
It has looked the same for 12 years (with the exception of a couple wheel changes) which which is well before all the ricers came on the scene and gave imports a bad name.
It doesn't have 500hp mufflers installed (which sounds like the equivalent of putting baseball cards in the wheel spokes), nor does it have 22" wheels and a 20" sub in the trunk.
It's the most fun car in my garage to drive, very predictable (except the one time I put Good Year on...never again).
Toyota broke the mold after they made this car!
I may actually put this car up for sale this summer. It's been good to me for 16 years but I think a Noble will be replacing it within the next 18 months. The Noble appears to be the only thing that I can see replacing this car for under $100k. Check out the Noble in my "Dream Garage".

The sidewalls on my BFG G-Force KD's gave out on the rear today and sent me into a curb. Ended up ripping off my front spoiler (breaking it into two), taking a big chunk out of the sidewall on my P03's and giving my billet wheel a nice curb rash. From now on only bridgestone's are going on this car.

Just had a new catalytic converter installed to hopefully get it through emissions this month (first year it has ever failed). Will let this cat burn in for a few hundred miles as I'm sure it will fail with the way it smells now.
