I just saw Coomers old Celica at the Columbia Ctr Mall in Kennewick WA.
I kind of hung around for a bit but had to go. I haven't seen this car since Coomer did all the work to it. Aside from being dirty, plastered with bugs, and missing a little paint on the front bumper it looked great. I may drive around a bit with the camera to see if I can see it again, hell gas is cheap.lol -------------------- JDM guy made me do it.

Rubbed is more like. I saw it again driving turned around and hit a stop light and lost it.

Yeah the paint on the front bumper wasn't very good (no offense to Coomer). When I got it home from E-burg it had a few chips from high speed bugs.
Rubbed is a different story. I wonder if vaughnz hit something. I know he slid it into a snow bank a few weeks after he bought it from me.... -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

I saw the car again up close, and it is chipping, there is one big
spot that may be a rub or a spot were a big flake of paint came off. I got some pics but I don't feel right posting them. I don't want the kid to think I am bashing him I really want him to become an active member and bring the car out to some meets. -------------------- JDM guy made me do it.

That's sad, this guy has a trophy of our history, and don't even care?
Seriously, someone go buy it from him, and put it on display in the main page

Honestly, If I could I would. I only sold it because I was moving and had 0 money. If moving could have waited 1-2 months I would still have it.

If I could buy it I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I literally had dreams about that car in the weeks leading up to getting mine. Seriously. I couldn't stop thinking about the engine bay - it's like the ultimate appeal to me in mechanical craftsmanship, OCD tidyness, and REALLY OCD shiny-ness. I totally kept having dreams about it. I'm such a nerd.

Same, if I had the extra money I'd be trying to buy that car from him just so I'd know it was in good hands.

Guys I know how we all feel about that car but one thing we need to consider is that it is HIS now. If he wants to drive it into a brick wall he can cause he's the one who spent the hard earned cash none of the rest of you could to buy that car. Trust me - there is nothing worse than having people calling that Coomer's car when it's his now. That might be why he doesn't want to be part of our community.

Well said. I couldn't agree more. I know if I had that car for example, and everyone kept calling it Coomer's car, I'd be pissed. It's a great car. But it's still a car.
