In the car and driver review it ran 0 to 60 in 8 seconds and that was new. As for an old one probably slower. They where fast in the 80's but now they are not so hot. It weighs alot, about 3600lbs.

Well that is hard to say if it is capable of 140 since the speedos are known for being off the faster you go.

You can check it with a gps and even so it takes a long time to get to the top speed. Also C&D rated it at only 131mph for a top speed. Even mine with P&P head, header, intake and full exhaust still takes a while to break 100mph compared to my celica with the 2zzge.

I don't know
I don't know....lol
Well anyway I was surprised to read that the stock Turbo model only generates 30 horsepower more than the stock NA model. That is a difference in a race but not so much I would think for everyday enjoyment of the car. You would have to do the horsepower to weight ratio wouldn't you?
