read about it in motor trend on the crapper today. i was slightly impressed, though I feel that on paper it's missing something.


i think the problem is that the sport+compact years as i have come to refer to them are starting to end, (i use sport+compact to referring to the post-01 sport-compact scene which has seen increases in horsepower past the point that the compacts can handle)

with all the migration towards AWD and RWD, and we all thought the the Celica GTS came to the party too late, it seems that Mazda missed it altogether.


but honestly, on it's own, i think that the car seems pretty well rounded as I was actually looking forward to getting in one to see how it drove.
