This is my second celi. i used to have a 5gen but got smashed by a suburban going 50 while i was at a stop sign... I just got the 6gc right after christmas for $3000. It was dented pretty badly in the rear quarter panel but last sunday i did all the bondoing and taht fun stuff. it turned out amazing compared to befor but still needs a little touching up. I got big plans for this celi and cant wait!!

Here are some pics of the celi b4 and after the Rookie body work i did

I have a friend that is identical to your friend. The resemblance is crazy. And that car looks familiar to me... Did you buy it off of another member on here by any chance? Seems like I remember seeing a silver Celica with those rims and damage to that quarter panel. And yours has the JDM tail lights, so whoever owned it cared enough to swap those in.
