why should I buy a toyota celica?, new member Options

[johnnygt]

give me your ideas im tempted to buy a 5th gen but everyone in this forum seems so nice and cool i cant let that go to waste lol.

LOL buy what you want, you dont have to have a 6GC to me a member of this site. It all depends on what you are looking for.

If your decision is based solely on looks, buy the car that most appeals to you.
If it is for an awd turbo car.....get the 5th gen all-trac
If you want a power house, get an all-trac
If you stuck on the 6GC, but want decent power, you do have options.....just look up 3SGTE swaps, or 5SFTE (remember it is a FWD platform)

Most people buy the 6th gen because a. they love the styling and(or) b. they see some potential in it.

So I think one of two things will happen; You'll get the 6th gen and fall in love with it and mod the hell out of it OR you'll get the 6th gen and not be happy with the performance and/or work you'd have to put into it to make it what you want and wish you'd gotten a 5th gen all-trac.

Check list:


A) Style [Personal preference. I think this plays a big part in choosing a car.]
B) Economic [ST gets 32ish MPG if maintained properly.]
C) Powerful [I'd have to say no unless you do a swap. Or turbo the 5SFE]
D) Handling [For a 94~99' it is above average.]
F) Comfort [Bucket seat is comfy, but you can't beat American cars' sofa seats.]
G) Cost [Cheap. Our cars should be more or less around the same price as a Corolla?]


Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
