6G Celicas Forums

I plan on getting a bone stock car
An im fully aware of how they get beat on lol
But i trust my friend to find me a good car as he always does

Thanks for the feed back on how the rsx is in the winter
thats been my biggest fear with all of them so far

If you already have your Celica as a project car, why don't you buy a reasonable daily driver? You said the WRX appeals to you because of the 4 door aspect, but you're also interested in the fuel economy of the Hondas. Why don't you just buy a Corolla and call it a day. GREAT on gas, cheap, extremely reliable, cheap on insurance, and, oh yea, they're a TOYOTA :-)

You don't want to buy another car that you're going to be tempted to spend money on, trust me, I've had my Celica project going for 6 years now...and in that time I've managed to build a 400+hp SOHC Civic, and have two Lexus SC's....and the Celica still sits.

I have to buy something that im going to enjoy
Witch means its gotta have a simi sporty feel to it an has to be fun to drive
I drive about an hour one way to work an ive sold other cars because they bord me to death lol
Ive already told me self that nohing gets done till the coupe an yhe 1mz are close an i plan on sticking to it
The wrx might be alittle hard for that since its turbo but i know i can leave the hondas alone
Been there done that an kinda over high horse hondas
I have thought about the newer corrollas but we really dont need another family car. Thats why we bought the boring little crv lol an when i bought the coupe these were 3 cars i thought of before but was out of my price range then

If you don't need another family car, then why does the 4 doors of the WRX appeal to you? Don't you know sedans are for old people? Sorry, my younger brother has a Nissan Maxima and I poke fun at him all the time for it.

As of now I'd say the RSX is the way to go. Or could go a few years older and get a 2001 Integra Type R. Which I'd opt for the Integra, only 5 less hp but weighs 178 pounds less. 24/31 for the RSX and 25/30 for the Type R, so pretty much the same on fuel economy. Then there's the 7th gen Celica, but I think you said something about how it was a con that the RSX looked similar to it. I guess you don't like how the 7GC looks then.
