Just my opinion but they feel cheap in every way. And powerless until you get lift. But they're still nice cars and no matter which year they buy, they'll be getting a good car.

THIS. I couldn't stand the cheap interior at all. I couldn't even look at it! It was one of the main reasons why I sold it and got another 6th gen. IMO, best thing about the 7th gen celica is the 2zzge.
