toyota Celica VVti 190 (apparently)
got this not too long ago. loving it at the moment buti have my doubts as to regarding what engine is in it.
im not sure if it maybe has the 140bhp engine in it as its a vvti the 190 bhp is a vvtli engine and i dont think its anywhere near as fast as 190 bhp should be.
anyway.
pictures...
oh and thats my mate ryans astra








what ya think?

Never really been a fan of them.
190 should have badges saying so, though of course they can be removed!!

you ever raced one in the 106?
i had a lupo gti sit on my ass to 130, which is giving me big doubts as to it being the 190
the interior is great in it though
