If yer getting a AE101/111 Trueno, make sure its either a GT-Apex / GT-Z or a BZ-G/Z/R. Rest are nana spec. 92-94 FXGT would be AE101, quite like those, 20V corolla, yum.

im currently looking at getting a 92-94 FX GT, have to sell my car first which is more than just a little irratating when you just wanna sell!!! Im going for one of them as i have ALWAYS wanted one for like the last 13 years! So would really like one, that doesnt really help you much but Trueno's are cool. :D
If you say please, im on my knees

It's even got one to tell you the boost pressure coming out of your ass.
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Well since they're basically the same cars chassis/engine wise - it'll probably come down to what you want to use it for.

The FX-GTs have the hatch so you can pack it up with a lot of stuff - good for students who are moving often, carrying lots of beer etc

The Levin/Trueno's are coupes (have a separate boot) so (from what I've heard) are better for stereo installations, those who want forced induction (GTZ) and for people who just hate the hatchback look :)

Also be sure to test drive all three and when you do, remember that the 4A-GE engine loves to rev (it's peak power is developed later in the rev range) so has a split personality - change gears at 4000rpm and it'll feel like an economical round-towner, change gears at ~6400rpm and it'll drive like the performance hatch/coupe it's renouned as.

Whichever you decided, you'll still end up with a great car - have fun :)

If you are going to be moving alot, keep in mind that in the AE111's only one side of the rear seat fold down so u cant just stuff everything between the rear seats and boot cos not much fits :wink:

And as you would expect its the smaller part of the rear seat that folds down :(
