My 1st Celi ('89): about 3500+ miles from Brooklyn, NY to Portland, OR, including site-seeing and a wild hair pit-stop in Minneapolis because I could.
Curent Celi: Portland–Vegas, 1166 miles according to the GPS in my phone; Vegas–Portland via Newport Beach, CA and up 101, about 1300 miles (although I think it's more because I went up 101 and not I-5) Total: 2466 plus I went to work that morning that I got home so 2490 -------------------- |

I drove the Yelli Celi from Seattle, WA to Big Springs, CA one hot summer day. 8 1/2 hours, 530 miles. Not too bad, but due to no A/C, P/S, CC, stiff suspension, a steering wheel that fell off, and a loud exhaust system I was exhausted when it was all over with.
Then the same on the drive back.... minus the whole steering wheel falling off... This post has been edited by 95CelicaST: Mar 29, 2009 - 2:20 AM -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

total on the clock is somewhere around 300k miles
but the longest trip for mine (which was done 3 times - and prolly will never do again) was from pa to ca and back within the same week (2700 miles one way) so about 5400 miles in one week lol no cruise control, lowered, on 18's - however, besides the extreme boredom was a pretty neat thing to do -------------------- you know why they put sheep at the edge of a cliff.... that way they push back!
