Voros: GM’s failure to innovate with Toyota

The marriage of General Motors and Toyota in Fremont, affectionately known as NUMMI, ended Monday after some 25 years of what appears to be a lopsided affair, where the love of profitable innovation was a one-way street.

Resolved Question: Which gets better (real!!!!) gas mileage, the Sequoia or the Land Cruiser?

I am on the market for a second family car and I want to get a new Toyota. I was wondering which SUV gets better gas mileage from someone who has firsthand experience since the dealer-provided details are wrong 95% of the time. It will most likely double as my commuter car and so the gas will be the deciding factor.
I need a large SUV that has a third row.

Open Question: Toyota Celica: Good for modification and show and other Q’s?

First of all please respect and provide sensible answers! I’m sick of rude and judgmental answers. If you’re going to prove that you’re rude and say crap, go do it somewhere else. Thanks :)

There’s 2 car at home for driving and I’m planning to buy a car as a project hobby to modify. (Last time I said that, I got abused and was told I should use my money to get into college and guess what, I am in bloody college, about to finish and yes I can afford it !!!!)

Anyway, I’m still planning to buy a Skyline V35 350GT to modify but on Cardomain I saw the modified Toyota Celica GTS/GT and they looked pretty hot which I’m thinking of getting instead (I dont like original Celica).

BUT! I live in Australia and I can’t find a single Celica GTS or GT here. I’m wondering if the GTS (V6) is the same as the ZR (V4) in Australia?

I want to make sure overall the car is good inc performance and is able to be modified to impress (Respect my decision! There’s reason behind this motive). A few people did say Celica is not bad but it’s a slow car and someone said it’ll be good if the engine was replaced with a supra engine. The slowless kind of put me off and I’m not sure about the supra engine (Dont want to get abused by people). Celica in Australia are mainly female drivers I think.

Anyway I just want opinions and tips and I will do more homework before any decisions.

Thanks
