I recently had a kid and decided it is finally time to get rid of my Celica.
The car has been my daily since I was in High school (2005) and I love it more than I should. Still, I needed to start driving something with 4 doors and there isn't room in the garage to keep her around for memory sake.

Feel free to ask me any questions about details I may have missed. More pictures or video available.


1999 Toyota Celica GT
Red with black leather interior
$3,200

190,000 miles on the engine and chassis
Transmission was replaced at 168,000 (refurb unit)
Clean TN title. No CEL. Runs and drives great.
The car was my daily driver for 12 years and I still absolutely love it. It is a blast to drive and has never left me stranded.


Power windows and sun roof, CD and FM radio, heating and AC all work.
AC truly gets cold. Never had to do any work on it at all.


UPDATES:
I worked for MSD Ignition and it has a second ignition system wired in with a by-pass. Both work, but it was done for testing and just never got taken out.
Window tint 30%
Stereo drivers were replaced about 5 years ago. All updated to upper-mid-level Infiniti. Head unit is original.
Radio antenna has a custom switch to control raise and lower. Works with full range of motion every time.
New Fuel Pump
Catalytic Converter was hollowed out. Still passes emissions check every year.

KNOWN ISSUES:
Radiator has some cracks in the top plastic that let steam out under pressure. I check the water level about once a week while driving it and have no issues.
Looses a bit of oil around the valve cover seals. Nothing major. I check the oil at every fuel fill (with every car I own), and add a bit once a month or so.
Interior leather has wear and tear on it. All on the front seats / drivers area (most used).
Front bumper has damage and needs some love.


EDIT: I have attempted to include pictures but they don't seem to be actually posting. My apologies - I'm not a regular poster. Any guidance would be great.

NICE, it's so clean... I would pick it up but looking for a winter beater (and bit above my price range). But that's too clean to run it through MN snow and salt. Good luck on the sale though!

Thanks, TimeslideZ
I've done my best to take care of her, but there are definitely some issues. Front bumper needs love. Otherwise, she's holding up great.
