LOL no. The Toyoglide was a gearbox that came in the old Corolla. Pretty sure the Toyoglide was the 2-speed.

Does 190 kph in a diesel Hyundai i30 count as cool in this thread?  cool smile

The engine is about half the size of most motorbikes LOL

ahhh I see. Never heard that before. I’m not sure but that was a great car. I inherited it. My great aunty had it, then my aunty had it, then my sister had it, then my brother and his wife had it and then I had it….and then it died. haha

160 in a rental car in Montana (no speed limit in daylight) could have gone faster but heard a clunk and since my boss at the time technically owned the avis franchise I decide to bail on it!

Our Subie Outback does 190 as easy as it does 50!!!!!

Had there been a HWY Patrol, I think I would’ve gone to the lock up!!!!!  sick
