After hitting a dog a year ago (the dog survived, 40MpH), I decided to sell the celica. I needed a car with more room, because I got a daughter. It had to be a toyota at least, so I bought a nearly new Avensis turbo diesel (don't know if you it in the USA). That was the biggest mistake I've made. Nothing wrong with that car, but I couldn't get used to it the way it feld on the road and so on. After nagging and wining for about a year I got "permission" from my wife to sell this car, and this weekend I get my GT. (I'm so happy) biggrin.gif

There have been many times where i have regreded buying my celica in the first place or regreded doing any number of things, but at this point I'm happy with it and glad I have it as I dont owe anything on it at all, its free for me to have (dont run so no issurance,mantinance, tabs etc to pay) its a little more then a rolling statue basicly, some day I it will run again but for now its just as i see it in pictures.

holy crap, this thread is like one of the first threads on this site, I remember posting it to get people to interact with the site a bit more. At the time there wasnt alot of tech talk and although people were joining, not many were posting.

I dont regret it, the celi as a first car is awesome, reliable, slow but enough to drive, very good handing, decent economy (st), since it was my first car and a car to learn i dont regret it, but, now i want to sell it, i dont think it satisfy me anymore, i need a bit more of power and less weight, probably a 180sx

I don't regret it at all, I love the celi. I have an ST but I don't care, my daily commute is me sitting in traffic for an hour, so even if I had a faster car it wouldn't matter, lol. I do wish I had gotten a hatchback though smile.gif

Much goes for Louisville, KY. EVERYONE has s14s and civics here.
The only car I'd buy other than this is a GT-4 or a Supra. Wiki puts it as "supra-esque".
But more often than I not, even though mine is still mostly stock with sideskirts...I get hella looks.
the car just looks great and feels even better.

I'm so glad that I bought my 95 ST.

In my neighborhood I've seen two celicas and that's about it.
I saw the car in a place nearby Leeuwarden (Harlingen for those who live in Holland) and once I could afford it I went over to check it out with my dad and a week later I drove it home.
Since then I haven't had any regret of buying it, besides the lack of power (116 bhp).

There are things I wish were different about it but overall I love it.

When I get my shop set up I'm gonna get to take her apart and make those changes.

Motor-wise I wish I had more top-end. Any time I used to race cars I would almost always take them from the line, but after some good distance they would step up past me a fender.

(a turbo should help biggrin.gif )

Well I can't really complain about my car, my dad got it for a good deal and I traded my 1976 Ford F100 (FAST, but gas hog) to him for it. I'm actually selling the celi though... I've got my eyes on a Flint Mica '08 tC. And the tC's a 5 speed. no more auto smile.gif But yeah, even though I've only had the celi a month the ST's way too slow and I need something new...

I regret only the engine. I've bought the ST instead of GT or GT4. Haven't find any GT in good condition and GT4 was too expensive and rare here. But I like my Celi and I'm pretty sure it's one of the nicest cars in the neighbourhood tongue.gif

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

I regretted picking up the Yelli Celi for the first month I had it... because money became rediculously tight... then I got paid at the end of the month and it wasn't such a big deal... then I sold my hatchback and now I'm straight ballin'

but she's out of commission right now.... I miss her.
