Hi all,
So here is my story... smile.gif
My first car was a 95 Toyota Corolla for which I payed $150 biggrin.gif, quite a deal for a rusty but trusty car, that was in the spring of '08. Since then I have changed quite a lot of cars.
I am new on here and to Celica experience.
Before this beauty I have owned some other 2 Door coupes and hatches, all of them were manual trans and only had automatics for Accord and MX3, will never buy an automatic again probably.
I have owned this cars: Acura Integra '91 RS and '92 GS, Mitsubishi Eclipse '93 GSX AWD and '95 RS, Prelude S 93, Jetta VR6 94 and some other cars in the last 2 years.
Recently got this nice Celica have some mixed feelings about it, I was expecting a bit different ride quality, but it might be that my car needs some TLC.

I got the Celica because of the looks and the price, it cost me $1600. The car is in pretty good shape, with just couple small scratches and 2-3 small rust spots. Needs some work on the sway bar links and an alignment I think.

I know this is just the 1.8L one, and has not enough power to beat other cars I owned but the looks take it all. It got a K&N air filter in there and about 158K miles. runs and drives pretty nice, but going on the freeway other bumps makes my front end shake pretty bad, what that could be?

What do you think about my purchase, does it worth the money?
I will try and save some money to probably get an exhaust on it and lower it later in time, as for now the problem is... like for all college students $$$ money kindasad.gif


Thank you for any comments you post,
