what starlet turbo is better overall

[turner929]

hey guys,

i was going to buy a starlet gt turbo but im finding it hard to find a good one! i have been offered a ep91 glanza v i just wanted to no the differences in perforance and handling and everything

can anyone help me?

[Mikey Jay]

Virtually identical on performance/handling etc as they use the same engine and chassis/suspension.

Different appearance though and different interiors

[Glanza_cl]

as said not a lot of difference really, gt is slightly lighter not noticeable though and its just looks really, what do you prefer the look of is what it is down to

[turner929]

i no a mate with a gt turbo and he said it is more tunnable because of the ecu? is this the case?

[Sparky]

lol your mate is talking out of his arse

Welcome to UKSC

Its all down to what you prefer the look of really as the perform very similarly

[turner929]

Ok thanks very much thats all i need to no

[starbogt]

Thats strange we ended up getting a gt turbo quadlight because the condition of the Glanza's around were below poor condition and the GT's were brill! There are very little difference's between the 2 but the Glanza packs better safety features and a little more weight nothing you'll notice on the road.

Imo the diff is that glanza has modern refinements and updated look (electric this n that, air bags) whereas the GT is old school basic interior not big on luxurys and tbh i think that and the fact the exterior is totally diff are both the main deciding factor of which to get.....they both have also inherited solid toyota old school reliablity so nothing to worry about on that front.

GTs are for cool cats.

Glanza's are for noobs who like Micra's.

End of.

Could always get a Paseo and put a Starlet Turbo engine in it

Cheaper than buying a Starlet Turbo and will look better

*stirs the fire*

Nevah

More seriously, and back on topic though

As said, what's best is down to personal taste and budget (as Glanza's cost more to buy and a fair bit more to insure than GT's)

Its just that a lot of insurance companies (for some reason) don't list the Glanza. So it makes it harder to find a good deal as the majority of companies will say they can't insure a Glanza (and if they do they will insure it as a facelift GT Turbo etc.)

It costs more even from the same company just because they have to manually process the glanza, my insurance would be 1/3 cheaper on a GT.
