Welcome.

Having driven and owned a lot of cars - the Celica is one of the nicest cars i've driven. The Doris has one and it's so easy to deal with

S2000 is more hardcore though.

You must be talking about a different generation than the one I had. I had a 1 year old sixth gen GT and it was facking shat. Didn't help when the missus wrapped it around a lamp post whilst reversing in a few weeks of ownership. With or without that, it was truly shit. Slow and so such shit poise.
