I'm a newb at Celicas. I could tell you whatever you wanted to know about Jeeps, Landcruisers (80 & 100 series), and Tacoma 4x4 TRDs, but I am looking for a 6th gen Celica to comute in. I'm pretty sure I want a gt, prefer 5sp. Is there anything in peticular I need to look for when looking at one? I prefer finding one from a private seller, to try to get the maintenance history (timing belt, etc). As far as reliability, are the 1.8 and 2.2 about the same? Auto and stick both reliable , assuming proper maintenance has been done? Do the sunroofs have a tendancy to leak, or are they pretty good?
Any advise any one has would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike |

I live in Deland, and work in Orlando, maybe we can meet up. I drive a big red truck with flashing lights. I can meet you when I get off shift in the morning sometime, or bring the kids by the station, I'd love to show them the rigs. PM me, I'd love to check out your ride.

I don't have any kids, im 19, lol. I frequently drive my 2 y/o niece though. I live in Davenport, over by Champions Gate. Oh, and as far as reliability, the GT is very reliable from my experience, don't hesitate if you see high miles, once the car was taken care of it will run and run and run!!

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.
