Loved this car. A little bit on the slow side due to the weight from the All wheel drive system, an automatic gearbox, and lack of power.  Was alot bigger inside that it seemed like from the outside.  Another thing that didn't impress me that much was the gas mileage.  I only managed to get about 23mpg.  Otherwise, the car was pretty much perfect and flawless.  I had no mechanical breakdowns or major problems with the car.  I do want to add that I did modify the car.  Modifications include: Hotchkis Lowering Springs, custom Celica shocks, Bomz Short Ram Air Intake, 6000k HIDs, Gutted Catalytic Converter, N1 Exhaust, JVC Headunit, 17in Reaction Orbits with Bridgestone Potenza G005 and other stuff.  Totaling about $5,000 worth of modification and parts.

Pros: Lots in interior space, all wheel drive security, Toyota brand name and reliability
Cons: Not much horsepower, slow

Great vehicle, a little bit underpowered.  Has a lot of interior room. Car was stock when bought but was later modified.  Spent about $5,000 in modifications.

Pros: Interior room, Cargo area, fuel economy
Cons: Underpowered, a perfect driving position can be hard to find.
