2000 Toyota Celica Hatchback GT-S 2dr Hatchback
Sporty Economy Car
 2000 GTS-Auto - this car should NEVER 
have an automatic, extra weight 
and 4 gears combined with a very low 
torque equal a poor accelertor. 
0-60 in 10.2 seconds, not as quick as 
a loaner Echo I had (9.8 sec).
 Very reliable, 25 mpg (60% highway) - 
unfortunately premium fuel. This car 
needs something to improve low end 
torque and should drop the automatic.  
The auto provides no benefit, except 
to wives that won't drive manual -
E-shift is a stupid gimmick. The 6K 
rpm valve lift change over too close 
to the 7800 red line. It's the only 
thing providing a brief hint of 
acceleration.
 Road Noise is high (improved slightly 
by changing tire bran
