I live in Japan, and when I just had to have a Celica convertible there was a long waiting list--pay now and wait. I talked to an auto broker, and he was able get me a display car from Yokohama, one of the first G6 Celica convertibles built, and they delivered it to my house a few days later, with about 100 miles on it, most of that from Yohohama to my house.

I keep it in top shape, because there is no other car I've seen at any price that I'd rather have. Just when I was going to buy another one like it new, the G7 came out. Anyway, it doesn't get a lot of miles on it, because we normally use trains in Japan to go any distance.

Unlike the U.S. versions, this car came with a 200-hp inline 4, available only with manual. And, of course, it's right-hand drive.

I had no idea there was such a thing as a G6 Celica forum or that the GT-Four wasn't sold outside Japan.

From my wife's Web site:

You seem like a nice guy but I really envy you and your GT4!

Uw if only they sold those in North AMerica as well. But as of next year, I can legally import one since an import car has to be 15 years old to come into Canada. As of the past year we have been getting boat loads of R32 skylines from over there.

And that Mitsuoka Orochi looks really nice as well. You guys always get better things.

Not a GT-Four, but I might buy one if I needed a second car. Mine's a convertible, with 47,000 miles on it.

Canada certainly has better roads for such cars than Japan. By the way, I remember the "Cheviacs" (Canadian-made Chevrolets with Ponitac styling parts) and "Plodges" (half Dodge, half Plymouth cars made in Windsor).
