hmm they are interesting but havent heard much about there power and handling.. Saw some really nicely done up ones with kits looked good just wanted to know what they are like by the looks of the combo its seems to me like a wagon WRX setup..YES/NO?

There's heaps of them over here (NZ).
Havn't driven one meself, but I'm told that they go like stink and handle well.

Think Celica with a wagon body.

I took this one for a drive in Dundas. Goes really hard and handles well. Ride a bit firm, but I suppose you need that to get it to handle so well. This car still has to get SEVS, but it won't be long.

One of my workmates has a 1998 stockish turbo model (not like the one in the picture) - similar performance to my JZZ31, but with the bonus of 4WD. Of course, its not as pretty as my Soarer - but definitely considering getting one for my wife.

Cara, I don't know what the owner wants for it as it is a test car for SEVS approval.
