Sounds like you'd rather have a GT then a corolla

Congrats dude, they're slick cars. I wish they had more power, but I'm sure their will be aftermarket solutions for that. Try Bassani and ummmm, I can't remember the other exhaust company but they're in Santa Margarita. Both will probably needs sample cars.

I think the company I'm thinking of was Magnaflow. I'd also contact Megan Racing and Stillen. I'd try it now before the car comes out so you're first in line. You should also try Vortech. I know a couple Camaro guys that got hooked up with systems from them in exchange for being test cars for fitment.

so far no dice on anything besides magnaflow wanting to use my car, i think toyota is giving most of the big boys tester vehicles to promote aftermarket development, the drift car that scion is using already has a cosworth turbo engine (600hp) so they're not interested in my lil ole 86 haha
anyway i'll be going to Long Beach/formula drift opener to see the premier of that cosworth 86 as part of the first 86 winners package, 3 day in LB with all the food and booze i want plus tour of toyota/scion HQ, dinner with that jack hollis guy and HOPEFULLY finally a test drive of the lil bugger! I'll keep you guys posted and hopefully be able to bring it to the april/may meetup whenever the car is delivered!!

My mom is totally into this little car. She might trade in her xB when there in full swing.

$24,200 is the price, i'm thinking of just going to the events and testing the car and then passing on it in favor of a C6 instead...price is whack

You can get a C6Z (!!) in awesome condition for $35k.

I've been seeing ls3 c6's in the low 20's. I'd go that route.

It's an excellent platform, and if you're going to mod it out that makes more sense. I think there's even an advantage because of the steel unibody for welding cages or something like that. But if you're just going to buy and run, the C6Z has way more cache and is shit hot!
