i could very well be wrong, but i was just playin around on craigslist earlier and happened to be searching around in the cars for sale in japan and there was an ad for a 97' Toyota cavalier. yeah i know, you would have clicked it too. so i read the add....they want $400. then i see the picture at the bottom and i'm like "WHAT!?". it says its a 97 cabarie, the same as a chevy cabarie. but then go to the bottom and look at the picture. i swear it has to be a black st205. it says it runs fast and i know that a cavalier is not running fast anywhere. so what is it? a GT-4 for 4 stacks? too bad importing cost so much. here's the URL so you guys can check it out and help me solve this. http://okinawa.craigslist.jp/cto/1720416916.html Once again, I COULD BE WRONG!

That is DEFINITELY not a 6GC. Profile doesn't even look similar, plus where's the intercooler venting on the hood?

It's a Toyota Cavalier with all the JDM stuff on it. Basically this car with different wheels:

Thanks for clearing that up, and i actually had asked myself about the hood in the picture i didnt know if there were no vents or if i just couldnt see them because of the angle of the pic. Now, the only question we are left with is............why the hell would somebody do those things to a cavalier...waste of money and time..................

Haha well in Japan that was all TRD dealer option stuff from Toyota, since Toyota branded the Cavalier there for a while. I know of a guy in town here that bought as many of the TRD Cavalier parts as he could.

Still a Cavalier though *BARF*

It took that Japanese to make the cavalier half decent. Now that's funny lol
