Sold the Celica and bought a WRX.
I then bought another 6GC.... and then traded it for my MR2. Definitely enjoy the MR2 more than the Celicas... except the Yelli Celi, but that doesn't count. RWD is an amazing thing - and Mid engine RWD is a blast. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

I would stay with toyota, regardless you cant go wrong, im going to be typical mustang fanboy for a second: ive got my celica as a dd but my weekend car is an 07 GT tuned to around 450rwhp, but honestly i love the blast of tourque, but my 1994 celica w/ 230k miles drives better, has less problems, AND gets more looks at car shows.
Turbo MR2 ftw sc300 ftw is300 ftw and all can be found and modded with affordability in mind |

I went backwards and have had 4 MR2s and now the Celica (because I thought I needed back seats). I do use the read hatch as my mountain bike carrier. Looking for a Honda Element now since I can haul bikes and camping gear in them.

Any other car I get will be in addition to my green Celica. It was my first car, my dad got it for me just after I turned 17. I've put more than 100k miles on it, spent a lot of time in that car, and the older it gets the better it looks.
Within the next 1-2 yrs I will buy a 93-95 MR2, after that will be an 05-08 Lotus Elise, then maybe a Supra. Somewhere in between will have to be buying a garage with an apartment in it. -------------------- |

Seems like the IS 300 gets mentioned several times.. Just make sure to get a manual if you look into those.

My next car will add to my collection. I really want something old American muscle from like 64 to 80. I would like to get a 69 firebird and make a Trans Am clone or GS like my brother has

After college, I plan on keeping my Celi until it croaks and using it as my DD (no crazy engine work, I'm fine with my 7AFE with an intake, header, and maybe pulleys and cam gears, not sure), and buying an FD RX-7 as my toy car. I have always loved and adored the 13B-REW Wankel rotary engine. IT. IS. GOD. As for when my Celi croaks... maybe an Evo. I like the sportiness and performance of it, but by the time I'm that old (I'm 18 at the moment), I'll probably want a 4 door. Evo or WRX fit the 4 door performance sedan category perfectly.
