    Bro.

    Get your facts straight.

    GTP's are governed at like 126.

    If you saw you GTP go 155, then it must of been tuned so the governor was removed.

    But if it was completely stock, then impossible.

    Hate: The way the headlights on the 04's look.
    Stock ride height

    Love: Overall look of the body lines.
    Seat feel.
    Interior and dash layout.
    Easy to work on

    i buried the speedometer when my gt was about 2 years old. but i'll admit that that if it did have a governed point i might not have reached it. thats my opinion though, and if you think the camry is faster thats fine too.

    GT's are governed at 107.

    GTP's are governed at 126.

    There's no reason to argue, those are the facts.

    End of story.

    I would put the "grocery getter", and 'too many people have them" in the "love" category.

    Agree on headroom. If I bought another it'd have to come without a sunroof so I could sit with proper posture.

    That's where the HUD comes in.

    Unless you've hit 199 MPH too.

    .

    I guessss that way if cops get a report of a speeding car you would be less likely to get caught for those reasons ha

    why would you ever consider going that fast in a car that goes through transmissions like a fat chick goes through ice cream.
