Hey Everyone,
I'm just curious as to why everyone bought their sixth generation Celica.

I bought mine because I saw a red hatch with 17" Focal Z1 rims at school a couple years ago, and I fell in love with the looks of the car! I thought I'd never be able to afford one, but I got a pretty good job more than a year ago and now I'm loving life with my Celi.

well i just fell in love with toyota's being around them so much, grew up playing Gran tourismo and loved the gt4s and the celica's....all ways wanting one i could never find one in my area as they are really really rare. i got stuck wth a tercel as my first car and i bet the bag off it and i loved how it just took the abuse, next car i bought trying to get a lil sporty i got a 200sx 5spd wish was a money pit......when it was time for something reliable again i searched for xrs corrola's and looked at a few 240s but i wanted something un toched and some thing no one had.....a good friend of mine had boughten this car 2 years prior and i was so jealous cause it was a gt-s a 5 spd and red.....every thing i wanted!!...i had joined this site years ago and had done my research on what model i would need to swap a 3s into it....low and behold she put it up for sale.....lots and lots of ppl looked at the car and were gonna buy it......i said screw it and went and took out a loan so i could snag it up knowing it wouldnt last long on the market....now its mine!!! had it for almost a year now, take very good care of it and keeping it clean as possible and not ricing it out.....now im saving for a swap for the winter....if still got big plans for it.......most of all i like about it is the lines of the car and how it handles. i know own my dream car now iv just gotta make it the way i want it

i hate snow, missing my celica
