very stable on highway; (Better than my 4gen Camry)
can do fast turn but no much body rolling; (partly due to the comfortable seats); spring is just good, not too stiff and not too soft; steering feels also just ok, not too heavy and not too soft ; Although, my ST only 110hp, each when I start at 3k+ RPM, I still get a "quick" start I like her very much. In my opinion, handling better than the Scion tC I tested. |

i'd agree with the above. In the sense of handling within a FWD MacPherson suspended car, I will say that our celicas are quite capable vehicles. However, this has more to do with the wide for it's day tread (205/55) from the factory with the GT/Alloy wheels
EDIT- I also wonder how the SS-III's handled, seeing has they had toyota's complicated "super strut" suspention... I've heard somewhere that the super struts resemble a bagpipe to a degree This post has been edited by saleeka: Jul 17, 2005 - 8:46 PM -------------------- Car #3: 98 Accord LX- purchased 5/06, totaled 8/06
