6G Celicas Forums

I have a '91 MR2 NA. It is black with 187,000 miles. It runs great and only has minor problems that would be expected of a car that age and milage. I have babied it, and had the transmission rebuilt about 16,000 miles ago. I have had this car for two years and absolutly love it, however, it has become painfully clear that I need a car with a decent size trunk. The MR2 is just not quite practical enough for me. I am curious if anyone would be interested in trading their celica for my MR2. I am only interested in a manual GT liftback. I have not posted any pics b/c I'm unsure if anyone is actually interested in auch a trade to begin with. Thank you.

I'll trade my rx7, which is a 2 seater as well, but has more trunk space than a suburban:)

Sorry, I'm not interested in an rx7. thanks for the reply tho.

Do you have any pics?
My celica has some body work needed.
Idk if my parents would let me, but iv always wanted one

edit: I guess ud want more info, its a stick,red,liftback.
The paint is chipping and there is 2 major dents, fender and door(previous owners fault), but iv gotten rid of most of the rust. I put a new clutch in it 10k miles ago, and the 3rd gear syncro is starting to mess up a but im sure some syncromesh will help that, cause its really only down shifting after highway driving. The pics in my prof are old here are some new ones. I got new toyo proxy 4 tires on it a few months ago they still have realy good tread left on em. The car is still in good condition if you ask me though.Oh also it has a short ram intake with a K&N filter on it.

i have a 96 liftback but its st

Hey, thanks for the replies. Vissi, I was interested, but the reason I had the transmission rebuilt on the two was bad synchros. Not something I want to deal with again. I appreciate the offer, but I need something that isn't going to require a lot of work down the road. Also, dagreat1 thanks for the offer, but i'm not really interested in an st. Thanks

Any manual GT hatch is worth a hell of alot more than a 91 MR2 with almost 190k miles.

The oldest celica you could get would still be 3 years newer than the car your trading.

im interested but im in ohio.

Sure, if you want to look at it from a purely monitary point of view blue book will place a celica at about 500-1000 dollars more than my mr2. But I don't place much stock in blue book value anyway. For instance, I used to have a wrangler and blue book placed it at being worth 2-3000 less than you could actually buy it anwhere. What is really important is the enjoyment you get out of a car. Having had both an MR2 and a Celica ( in a manual GT liftback) I can say that I would rather have the MR2, which by blue book is not as good. If I had enough money to buy another, bigger car and insure it I would b/c I don't really want to get rid of my MR2. I don't have enough money for that so I was looking for a solution where I could get a bigger car that I knew that I liked, without spending said money that I don't have.
