Lately i've seen a lot of people saying that they have sold their celicas in the past and then in just a couple years they come back for more and buy another celica, despite the fact that many of the cars they buy are far more advanced. maybe we are just becoming more like our parents or grandparents where they just have to have their car from their youth. you see it everyday, elder gentleman goes out and buys a brand spanking new car, but then after a while they start getting nostalgic with their old mustang or chevelle, corvette, etc... and they go out and buy it and feel right at home. i havent had my celica very long but i've had my 95 corolla for almost 7 years and honestly i dont think i'll ever get rid of it. i've driven balenos, aerios, my moms scion xd, my wifes civic, my dads 06 bmw 325, and i feel much more comfortable in my reliable rolla. and maybe that is whats happening to us, were getting older and things just arent the way they used to be, in this instance, the celica has a spirit that no other car, old or new can duplicate, pretty sure when were all driving some new toyota sport model in the year 2026, we will always come back to our 94-99 celicas

If the 6th gen came in RWD I would be back in one now.
But having gone from FWD to RWD... I'm not sure I can go back. I want a 6th gen for a commuter

RWD, AWD, FWD, it doesn't matter. I don't do anything "special" so it doesn't matter. I bought my first 6g and sold it to get a MR2 turbo. Sold the MR2 turbo to get another 6g. Sold the 6g to get a 7g Celica. Sold the 7g Celica to get another 6g. Sold the 6g and got an IS300. Sold the IS300 and got another 6g. Sold it, got a 2012 Corolla S and I WILL get another 6g this summer haha. I've been through 20 some odd cars and there's just something about it.
