2004 Celica GT 0-60 and 1/4 mile??

[shirl]

Hello, I am new to the board and just got done looking at an 04' Celica GT with 28,000 miles. I only got to drive it around the parking lot so I wasn't able to "get on it".

The GT is 140hp correct?
and...
does anyone know what these cars run 0-60 and/or the 1/4 mile??

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Seems your car is based on the celica 190 ;D, have a read below......

Welcome shirl, I would insist on a longer test drive, good 10 miles,make sure it's well warmed up and you like it etc.

Autocar Magazine quote 9.5 and 7.2 seconds for 0-60 m.p.h. for the current model Celica 230 Series with 140 and 190 b.h.p engines respectively. I have a 140 and it feels a bit sharper than that. Six speed box makes it a nice economical cruiser. The 190 is lower geared and not as relaxed, while the extra power is all above 6000 R.P.M. and a bit of a boy racer.
