yeah today i went and bought my 94 celica gt. anyways heres the story. i called yesterday for a celica on carsoup and there was a 17 yr old kid who already down payment on it. he didn't have money so he went to talk to his parents about financing. well the guy called me back today saying the kid didn't come up with the money so i had dibs on it unless i didn't want it. well i first thing i did was dropped everything and went all the way to st cloud from minneapolis to look at it. well no rust at all except on doors but should be no biggie cause im getting new doors. it's black with tan/black combo leather interior. car is identical to my 99 celica gt! except for the fact that it had 2 extra speakers? never seen that. anyways i bought it for 2K. he was asking for 3K but got it all the way down. doesnt leak oil or anything at all. my plan is to buy a few things after i sell my mr2 turbo. i also have a potential buyer for my mr2 turbo tomorrow so ill let yall know. right now i just put on some european taillights and clear idicators.
here's my plan: 1. JDM taillights for both celicas. 2. drop both celicas (thinking 1.5"-2"). 3. clean the gt rims and paint them black. 4. put my old riser blocks on the 94 celica gt. 5. etc. anyways im very happy about my decision. i just couldn't stand the mr2 turbo. it's fast but im just a celica guy. you must be wondering why im so happy...i have a 99 celica gt already?..well the 94 is 5spd and it's 94-95 model where i can put on riser blocks and do stuff with it. it drives very quiet with only 119K miles. very smoothe. love it! ill wash her up and put up pictures. thanks all

premium has awesome voice, if you want thump you gotta get it yourself, but I was highly satisfied with just the factory speakers with the premium system when that was all I had
