Rode in Malpaso's GT-4 Options

[snapshotgt]

Long story short: I was in Prague this past weekend and Martin was kind enough to give me a ride in his GT-4. I was thrilled to meet Martin (malpaso) in person -- he is a great guy and one of our best members here. It was quite an experience (thank you Martin!). Also, Prague is freaking awesome, and the people are great.

Before people start asking, here is how I compare it with my V6:

The grip was amazing and the cornering was unmatched. The power felt smooth and solid on the road (best way I can describe it) and there was no wheel hop, just a constant pull. From a roll, I feel like the V6 would be faster because of the weight differences, but from the line the gt4 has grip (whereas possible wheel hop with swapped fwd celicas). Overall, I was more impressed than I thought I would be -- the AWD felt like another world. Side note: I was pleased to see the "factory" approach that Martin has had with his car, I think people sometimes underestimate what it is to appreciate the factory/stock looking 6th gen.

A couple pictures (I took many, but Im sure they'd just be repeats that y'all have seen):
