Starlet, i have first had exp of an ass wooping buy one, As for the Fiat everyone says there quick and all the figures people come out with are poo, they dont seam to have much pull. Most have large Center Exit Exhausts. more Offensive loudness than real speed and go.

defo starlet, from what i've heard very easy and cheapish to get big bhp. but on the other hand its a toyota so its gonna be a boring interior. but then again who needs interior, strip the bitch!

standard for standard they do a quicker 1/4 mile than the starlet

with 200hp they will be 14s dead 1/4 mile @ a little over 100mph

with 170 they will be mid to high 14s 1/4 mile
