6G Celicas Forums

I had an AE86 offered to me for $1,000 one time way back. Before I knew what it really was... Still beat myself up over that one... That and letting my MKIII Supra go... Now they're worth considerably more, go figure... I really like the Miata on paper. Especially for being a DD, since it offers the best mpg with some modern safety features. Aside from the AE86, which can be a tad better in mpg. Would like to have one of the rwd Celica, but no aftermarket...

^ You haven't driven a Miata yet, I take it? Do yourself a favor and test drive an NA. It's truly wonderful.

Nope not yet. I hear they're great handling cars. Just lacking in power some, but that can be fixed easily enough. Especially with having such a great platform to start with. 2,100-2,300 pounds or so depending on year. I hear they're super easy to work on too. Kind of funny since I've started looking into them, how much I've likened to them. Get some coil-overs for it, mmmmmm. Plan on keeping the Celica for as long as I can. So it may be awhile.

Once we move to a bigger house with more room the next car on my list is a miata or a celica supra

It sucks too there a 79 celica supra for sale near me .for 750 id love to pickup but dont have the room or money atm

I'm serious, you have to drive it to truly experience it. It's incomparable. So go, find some free time and take the keys from some used-car salesman.

Ok. If I ever see one on a lot I will. "Yes... I'm eh.... Looking for a used car.... How about those...?" *points to a Miata and Corvette*

Thats what i did lol only it was a miata an a mr2 turbo lol

Nothing like going to test drive a car with no intent on buying it.

I was thinking about buying a miata at that time
but i found my 95 coupe an i knew i would own it before i even looked at it lol

Depends on the dealer. I had a fairly poor (and I mean in standing) used car dealership, selling a ratty 2k example, something ridiculously low. Dude took a copy of my license and said "Go to town," tossing me the keys. Quite a good drive, that.

They let me test drive the miata but they wantd to see cash before i could drive the mr2

*flashes $1 bill* "There's more from where that came from."

Wish i could of done that lol

I think you'd be removed from the premises at that point. That or they'd just stare out you.

Or askec if you jist want to buy the whole lot lol

2004 SVT Cobra, or a 08' 350z

Why yes, yes I do. *tucks $1 into their pocket*

The dealer say let me call the owner( really calls the cops)

Just a bad experience all in all.

I went up to my local Toyota dealership and told them i wanted to test drive a 2012 Scion Tc and i was only 17 at the time and he didn't even ask for my license he just went and got the keys lol

Quite roomy for a 2 door, lots of head room, and it was pretty fast/fun nice handling. Pretty nice car
