i've encountered this MRS and Celica with my LE SVT before....
seems to me the Celica more powderful in terms of acceleration, cause cannot follow that close to it's rear.....but the MRS i can follow very close range...
in terms of handling from the zig zag in light traffic conditions, to me the MRS handling seems to better if compared to Celica.....it looked like it was more smooth in handling...
my 2 cents only...:)
