Looks more like a "connector" for when the Power Ranger/Transformer version of the car morphs with other vehicles to become Power-86 to me, maybe an ankle joint?

I'm just not feeling it.

Looks pretty good. Like others say, it's a bit ricey, but I personally think it's better than stock.

Yes, but you don't need 200hp; the Nano gets by with just 38. And you don't need 17-inch wheels; why not pick up some TE-37's in 13-inch. And what about that radio, or all those colors. I mean, more colors means more work for the factory, and more decision making on our part. And...

...see where I'm going with this?

Besides, yes a spoiler that tall CAN make a difference in the handling of a 200hp car, and no, I don't think 5% of us will ever need it. Don't care, love them anyway.

The aftermarket options are looking pretty good. I'll take the tan one on the left.

I have personally loved this kit! That chrome on the back and those hideous stripes are new tho and need to go.

I really hope they bring this to the US. Please, please PLEASE!

I love the Celica look. I see tons of potential with tasteful wheels, and lowering.

That wing brings out the real Filipino in me.

So you're taking the car? XD

The brown skinned ladies are lovely. Especially the one on the right, she is gorgeous.
