Thanks for your kind words, but the Civic I feel has just as much style. Plus the Celica was far from perfect.

I'm sure it wasn't perfect, you can't expect any 13 year old car to be, but I see Civics just about everywhere I go...they're known as economy grocery-getters, unless you have an Si. At least Celicas have some old-school sports car rep.

I think I'd know what a slow Celica is...7A-FE coupled to an automatic, aka...MY car.
But they're at least somewhat cool...Civics are just so common. Plus you can say it backwards and it's the same thing, that's just weird. |

The Civic is just about as fast as my other car was, except it starts to pull around 80+.
The main reason I did the trade was for aftermarket choice. There are MILLIONS of parts the the Civic, I am honestly sick of the 6GC having nothing good going for it. |

I guess so...that's the ****ty thing about USDM. I'm thinking a JDM or European GT-4 tuned to around 350bhp and customized to my liking would probably be perfect. But, that's not possible here.

I don't get it...the point was to own a newer car with less miles, but with less personality and style?

They may be generic but at least there are 3438564858495 ways to customize it. Most of the Celica's on here have the same stuff.

Not really, you should've known. I can commend you on newer and lower miles, but other than that...it's a Civic. Not even an Si, just a Civic. Everybody has one and it's known as an econobox and not much else.
Besides, you even went from a manual to an auto. :fail: |

Hey say what you will about Civics, but they're still rock solid damn good cars. IDK about it having more style, but hey, to each his own and I think it's awesome that you sold your car and got a car that you're really excited about!

Honda and Toyota's reliabilty is pretty much the same and well..Honda just makes more interesting cars than Toyota nowadays. -------------------- -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |
