For 35 900 z ($11 500) you can be the proud owner of this 1990 Toyota Celica GT-FOUR Carlos Sainz Edition. It's done 114 700km (71 270 miles) and apart from a ~240hp engine and a rally-bred 4wd system it has TEIN SuperStreet coilovers, Tarox brakes with 10 piston calipers up front and apparently floating rotors, 17" Braid Winrace Tarmac wheels, a full skidplate, a 2,5" stainless exhaust with a downpipe, a water to air intercooler, a TIAL bov, and some other bits and bobs.

So, Oppo, what say you? NP or CP?

Full ad.

P.S. Sorry for the initial cockup with this post.

I could see it going for that much. A few months ago back in AZ I found a '92 GT-FOUR w/ around 80k, 1 owner (elderly female), completely stock, and super clean for just $7k. I really regret not getting that thing.

This one has the added coolness of being a limited run WRC Group A homologation model. And funnily enough, despite that it has quite a bit of kit on it (which is good for street use).

It's definitely very well modded, and looks like the work done was good, but I'm always one for buying stock and doing all of the work myself.

I definitely prefer to buy stock as well. I have way more trust in the factory than some random bozo who may or may not know what he's doing when he's modifying the car.

I wouldn't pay that much for it, but I'd rock it. Not saying it isn't worth that, it just isn't to me.

Also, I could do without the coffee can.

Duly noted.

Though if I had let the video continue, I did say to myself "This should become a regular thing. I see enough rare funky Jalop cars on my commute...."

I love it, but the price makes this interesting only for people who don't have to bother counting. :/

The number correlates to the number of pistons.

So basically it would be your own mash up of finding Bigfoot and comedians getting coffee in cars.

10/10 would watch

Yeah, I knew that, I've just never seen a 10-piston caliper. The most I've seen it 4. But that picture looks like I've been missing out on quite a bit.
