Dude I was not saying my car is faster, just saying that most old junkers that become project cars usually stay old junkers, just cost more and more money. If you can tell me what is so cool about a 90 corolla please go ahead, but judging by your "My car is faster than your car" answer I doubt I'll get anything productive.
Since you brought my XRS into it....The XRS is no sports car, that is why I'm not wasting anymore money on performance parts for it. It is a fun 4 banger/ 4 door/ 6spd that handles well and gets up and goes when I want to for fun. It is faster and handles better than anything in its class (aside from the SRT-4 or Cobalt SS which are fast pieces of junk that won't last more than a few years so I don't count them) and is dirt cheap on insurance. It is in no way shape or form a racing car. The reason I would never do an engine swap or turbo upgrade on my corolla is because it is a fucking corolla, not a racecar. Thanks to that stupid Fast and the Furious movie ricers have come out of the woodwork in America, wasting thousands of dollars on piece of shit cars that are still slow and thinking they are so cool for it.
Of course you could probably beat me you probably spent thousands of dollars resurecting some piece of junk from someone who rightly no longer wanted it. I did not get my meager few performance parts to go race people, I got them to make my car more fun to drive to work and back every day. The only track time I spend is for my own amusement, not to prove myself to e-thugs with something they need to compensate for. If you are proud of your car great, that is what matters. But don't throw a fit because someone with an XRS thinks that a 15 year old econojunker is not worth investing a few grand into.
Go watch the fast and the furious some more....
