in five years glanzas will be that old common chav japmobile
gts will be classic cars :p

also i think the ' you dont have a glanza cos you cant afford it ' is just condecescending and bull. glanzas over here have dropped in value to under 3k, maybe bit more for a 98/99. gts are holding their value.

you might have more money but maybe not so smart:haha:

Yeah, but some Microsoft customers have 360Elites, with 120Gig hard drives!

:)

I bought a GT, because, well, Glanza's look too normal.

Sorry but after all the time I spent reading this thread I have forgotton what actually happened in the video.
Oh I remember it shows a Glanza being held up by the GT then overtaking it then pulling away as they race round a track. Hang on, that proved that the Glanza is the faster track car. Oh poor little GT owners, kidding themselves for years, "gts are lighter and faster" well the only fair comparison that has ever been posted proves you wrong.
Glanza, as you youngsters say, FTW.


PS, I actually like GT's but chose a Glanza. Its all down to taste. Glanza owners have taste GT owners dont!!!!

Different days different times. Its like going to a dyno on different days. The only true comparison is a race like the video and the Glanza proves itself.

This is one of the most sensible posts I've seen in this thread. I still can't beleive after some 4 odd years stalking this site that this topic still generates so much debate :D :homer: Please take note: Whatever a man is currently driving, that car will be the best thing there is PERIOD! (Compares the model supported with Drives:)

I actually posted what happens in the video. The tape came with a text brochure.

6/18/2003 THE TALE OF THE TAPE
BestMOTORing March 1996 offers some insight into the EP91. This was their first test of the EP91 as it had just debuted in Japan. It was put up against the old model EP82.

This really wasn't a direct numbers comparison for which I was hoping, but it still proved a good watch. It is amazing to see your vehicle in the hands of a professional. The Starlet GlanzaV (EP91) vs. the Starlet GT Turbo is a straight lap battle. They waste no time pushing both cars onto the circuit, though not Tsukuba, for a three-lap battle. Both cars looked to be matched but by the second lap its obvious which car has the better chassis.

The EP91 corners and brakes with impunity choosing its lines at will verses the old EP. Straight-line speed becomes a non-issue as the EP91 goes deeper into the corners and brakes later due to better balance. The EP now has the dynamics suited to its power. Unfortunately Nakaya gives his review of the car in Japanese, what else. So until I get what he said translated I really won't know his opinions, but it looks good. We've got a few more tapes to discuss and they are wild, trust me. My words don't do this stuff justice.

glanza breaking closer to the turn due to better balance? BS! that's the driver all the way!

have the same person drive both cars and compare ET on each, that'll be more like it!

both are so similar you really need to consider turbo, engine, brakes, gearbox condition :s
