IF its standard and has been looked after should be fairly reliable, its a toyota after all. Thing is as with a lot of turbo cars, people take shortcuts and whack the boost up with cheap mods.

I had a play with a FTO a while back in my 106 gti (same as a VTS) and there was nothing in it up to 80 when we had to slow down.

sorry i just pissed myself laughing there and fell of my chair,,will think of something funny to say when i stop laughing,, iv had prob about 10 maybe more vts's try and play with me and cant count how many vtrs and only got beaten twice both vtss and on on windy roads where i was backing of at corners and had great fun shifting straight back up there asses on the straights

0-60 yes sure i can see yous having a chance as ftos just spin but 80 no chance lol as im in 2nd gear hiting mivec ,,

ftos aint quick 0-60 but they def aint slow enough for a 106 gti or vts to say they had nothing init at 80,,even the gr would be leaving yous behind by that time

sorry i take back the laughter and will apologise when a vts or pug gti are near me but christ i can out run my mates 180 and 140 206s (180 wins on the twisties and i cant close the gap btw)

most iv laughed all week lol
