Yes, laughing at a Honda fanboy makes me feel better.

The RSX is a great luxury car, looks the part with its economy car interior. The Celica will walk all over it. Sorry to let you in on the news. rolleyes

Honda fanboy? I'm letting you in on the truth. The DC5 does have a higher top-end than the GTS.

U need to step up off dis sack, biotch!

You need some rest, or maybe you're too obessed with your Celica. Get your head out of your ass and realize that your car isn't the best.

I never said it was the best, I said it was better than an RSX-S

How do you figure the RSX-S has a higher top end?

Oh wait, you read it in Compact Tuner Magazine, it must be true. thumbsdown

You've failed...

A stock Type-S and a stock GTS are basically close.

Look who's the fanboy now...

i've been reading this and i think some of you really dont know what is going on.. the only way you can really judge this is to drive both cars urself and test their top end and whatever.. and i have and i must say the RSX has a higher topend dont deny it because i does.. but acceleration seems about the same.. i like the gearbox a lot more.. but celi still handles better

thats wut i think also. but i believe celica will launch much better cz of its ligthweight and enough hp for launch, while rsx-s has more hp and heavier, chances for rsx-s churpin is more than celica gts. but once rsx-s has gained speed, it will maybe go quicker. im thinkin that once the weight is carried, it is not a big factor of slowing down the car, yet still is. sounds dumb but i think that on a freeway a type s will get to 140s before the gts. torque plays along and all the other stuff. talkin about ppl with same driving skills

the rsx-s and gts are extremely close in performance. basically it comes down to your particular cars. some celicas are made better than others as well as some rsx's are made better than other. some gts show better whp gaisn adn some rsx-s show better whp gains.

that said, i have never lost to an rsx-s. maybe they werent the greatest drivers, but i'm not either.

basically close being the keyword. GTS > RSX-S

I know, because you just won't accept the RSX isn't faster than a GTS.

*cough* celica forum, go away honda *cough*

just relax with the rsx and gts arguments...
were just trying to get opinions and facts that can prove which one is better. but the conclusion is there both great performing and looking cars. it is a matter wut you want and whats ur taste. as told if you want lots aftermarket parts, rsx has more. I will still get a gts over a rsx-s. gts is always more unique, and its the legendary celica. looks and performs better overall IMO and its an awesome car for being a 4 year old model and it still looks dope. afterall its more reliable its a toyota which i think their production is better than honda.

No, I'm talking about the Type-S.

Why would you compare a base with a upgrade?

That's like saying:

Which has a better top-end...Lancer or GT-R? (Don't answer this)

So am I.

The RSX-S only puts down 3 more WHP than the GTS, and it weighs more and has a higher coefficient of drag.

Stock for stock, the celica kills it. Mod for mod, the celica kills it (save for hondata)

On the track...well, we won't go there.

The numbers speak for themselves.

No, you're too lazy to type "Type-S".

Either type "Type-S", "RSX Type-S", and/or "RSX-S" or don't type at all.

You remind me those Mustang drivers who think they're the shit.

You know nothing outside of your little Celica bubble.

And according to the majority, the numbers from a Type-S are higher. Some say they're the same, some say it's not...But if you get your head out of your ass, you might realize that more believe that the Type-S is higher.

No one is "bashing". If you think that's bashing, then you're seriously weak at arguing.

So?

What's the difference if I love Honda?

I can't enjoy both Honda and Toyota cars? I have to only love the Celica to even post here?

I don't post other places, because people like you think the Celica is slow.

Bring whatever POS you drive to a real race track, and we'll see where you end up.

Bye! wave

i think this debate should have stopped after my comments.. because i think it all started with the guy asking which car he should get but he definately shouldn't ahve asked that on this forum because of some people that think their celica can beat everything on the road, he should just test both cars and pick which he likes.. im not bashing the celica seeing as i own one so calm down diablo

if you will notice that the brake light is on.

either it is photchopped or the car is on a dyno. two words: wind resistance thumbsup

in any case..it is possible to be going over 130, but you would have to be on a slanted road or the wind would have to be with you.

on a perfectly flat raod, on a perfectly windless day, in a perfectly stock car...your gts 6-speed is not meant to go over 130.

and anyway, don't trust a speedo thats not calibrated when your going over 100.

it is on a dyno.

Wind resistance is a bitch, which is why the RSX Type S (there ya go Donegan) isn't as fast as the GTS

BTW, I've had my car at 147 on a highway in PA on a flat road with a slight cross wind.

You obviously don't drive a GTS, and if you do, you don't drive it rigtht, because 130 is only in 5th gear spineyes

edit: if its a GTS auto, don't bother talking about the top speed

You're straight out ignorant.

I don't think you'll ever realize or admit that a stock GTS is not faster than the Type-S. You're too obsessed with your Celica.

Fanboy...
