You automotive troglodyte, AE86 is the CHASSIS CODE not the engine code of the VIN! The AE86 did have a 4A-GE as well as those other engines because AE86 refers to the chassis code, same way an AE92 or AE101 might have different engines in the same chassis code. It wasn't until later into the 90's when you started seeing chassis code also denote engine in the vehicle like a ST205 Celica or a ZZ230 Celica.

ik ik that was a joke, but seriously you always hear about usa never getting a engine in a certain car that the outside world does, like the celica gt thing that had turbo and stuff, idk i forgot completly, but here we got boring version of cars, for example, we had no eg6, no ek9, no prelude sir, and no corrola ae111 with silver top

and why do modern toyota give us not cool cars anymore, unless you wanna pay 50k for supra, god damn we just love havin old civics, corolllas, and some 240sx, although the k24de was mega failure, considering that something called the "sr20de and det" existed and was mass produced, all they had to do is ship it over to the god damn us

Cars were cool, they aren’t anymore. Driving is just another chore. No one wants to drive..

 im going to definitly keep my honda until 1million miles

I'm keeping my 2000 Celica forever, when they stop making gas I'll just go sit in it. It's not the fastest, it's not the best handling, it's not the prettiest, it's not the best anything but I like it and I feel like it has character when I drive it. It's got something that's hard to put to words, some intangible property that makes it feel like more than just a machine to me.

When the floor eventually rusts out you can at least pretend you're Fred Flintstone.

if the stars align you get a cold front to make it cold here followed by another cold front, which produces precipitation and adds more cold so we get snow.

Don't you guys get the Yaris GRMN or the new GR Yaris (photo)? Those are cool new Toyotas. They're also planning a wagon with a similar setup as the GR Yaris.

 

GR Yaris:

 

• 192 kW / 261 DIN HP
• 360 Nm / 266 lb-ft
• 1.6 L 3-cylinder
• GR-FOUR AWD (both front and rear bias are available)
• Optional Torsen diff front and back
• 1280 kg / 2821 lbs
• MANUAL gearbox

i have so forgotten about these, speaking of which my dad and me have 4 cars in our ownership

the 2007 nissan quest, oh i loved this thing all it needs is a new timing chain, but god damn it was a beauty to ride in

My 1998 civic ex, not much, but still has vtec so eh still good, (needs new throttle sensor) 

2012 suburu impreza, we have done donuts in this thing in the home depot lot, also really good to drive, needs a fix on the tran cooler, it overheat in warm wether, im lucky its like -1 f here

and finally the 2012 yaris, only car that is fully function, works great, probrably a engine i can actually turbo or upgrade without guilt, of course it literally is already fast considering it got some very good tires, got a good motor, sounds great, drives great, what other hatch can you ask for ( @iDeFecZx gonna be so mad)
