==In-game description==
This description is taken from the PAL version of Gran Turismo 2:
Toyota's Starlet has a reputation today as being something of a slow-moving roadblock. In the hands of a learner driver or a blue-rinsed geriatric Starlets seem to cause congestion wherever they go. But a few years ago things were very different. Toyota's second generation Starlet was born in February 1978. Its cheeky two-box body style set a theme that can still be seen 20 years on, but what's long since departed is the rear-wheel drive chassis. The KP61 model was the last to feature this layout that's most popular with keen drivers. A fairly conventional combination of strut suspension at the front and a four-link rear end provided the little Starlet with very nimble handling. It wasn't the most powerful car on the block as its 1.3-litre four-cylinder motor produced just 72 BHP, but the Starlet weighed only 710 kg so its performance was pretty nippy. Flat out you'd struggle to reach 90 mph, but for a quick dash away from the lights to 30 mph the Starlet's feather weight would allow it to surprise many a more powerful motor. With a slick-shifting four-speed manual gearbox and lightweight unassisted steering the Starlet was also a doddle to drive. Its skinny tyres weren't over generous with grip, but since the chassis was so well balanced it just added to the fun. With none of the electronic trickery that's fitted to even the most humble hatchbacks today, the Starlet offered a raw and honest driving experience at a bargain price. As a first car for many young drivers it provided a good grounding in car control. You can almost picture a young Satoru Nakajima or Tora Takagi at the wheel just after their 17th birthdays.

==Trivia==
*The car featured in Gran Turismo 2 is actually a 1978-1980 Starlet as it has a 'bug eye' front (pre-facelift). A 1982 Starlet would have a 'flat' front (post-facelift).
*This car mistakenly uses the same name as the Turbo S '87, and is not actually turbocharged. The model represented is simply the Starlet S.
*The Straight Green color is mistakenly labelled as Jetliner Silver Metallic.
