Today I finally found a Celica worth buying, and its my birthday!!!! After looking for like a year I found a nice Celica. Its a 5spd GT with 163k on it. Its about 4 or 5 hours away and I'm going to get it on Friday. Im super jacked and cant wait to go get it. Its definitely a upgrade from my auto st. The lady Im buying it from said she would hold it for me but if she sells I will be pissed and probably give up on Celicas and buy a Honda... jk. haha, funny joke.
 But yea Ill stop boring, here are some pics.  No the wheels are not included, but it is dropped!

Not a huge fan of teal...but manual, leather seats, premium sound system, and that two-post spoiler all speak to me.

Looks like a good buy. Clean car. What is it, a 94? Too bad the rims don't come with. What about the aftermarket deck and speakers though?
(I'm guessing that it's just an aftermarket shift knob that makes it look taller) This post has been edited by tin_foil: Mar 3, 2010 - 4:10 PM --------------------  |

I bought it! Its in like perfect condition, and the girls dad knew a lot about Toyotas and kept it in really nice shape. And it rides way nicer then my st which I didnt expect because its lowered. Here are some pics of it in my garage, yay!
 The only bad thing is the dent buy the drivers side door, I think I can get it out though.  3k in hundreds, I felt like a pimp!

^^^^ The pictures at the top showed the car when it had no dent? so those pictures must have been older, way before the car was for sale. Did you already know about the quarter panel damage before you picked her up? Either way it's in amazing condition.
