Ok i figured since everyone here is car nuts just like me
An since im sure im not the only one thats had 30+ cars lol If you didnt have your celica what would you have bought instead? An i mean what you really would have bought. Not oh id drive a lambo or a viper everyday lol Ok on to thr awnser I probably would of went with 1of3 car An early 90s miata,s13 240sx or rx7 Mainly that what i was looking for rwd when i found the celica on Craigslist i wouldnt trade my celica for any of them but i was really wanting a miata( witch my wife still thinks is funny) Because it was small sporty had desent aftermarket support. I had a 240sx once before an knew i would like it with some work An im still in love with the sound of a rotary motor an the look of he old fc3s lol So thats my list an why i was wanting them what about everyone else -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

QUOTE (BonzaiCelica @ Mar 29, 2012 - 5:26 PM) a 300whp IS300 Lol you and me both. I'll trade you the IS for the BEAMS  I was pretty determined to end up in a Celica. They always have been my favorite entry level sports coupe. If I didn't get a 6th gen, it was going to be a 7th gen. I've toyed with the idea of an RSX and I've nearly had 3 different Miatas handed to me but the 6gc is by far my favorite. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

Lol ive owned all those They all sucked My parents had a last gen Firebird and Trans Am. They were nice cars. Especially the T/A. The Celica was my uncle's, who's an ASE master technician for Toyota, so was able to get for a good price and everything had been replaced already. Can't beat that.

I got my Celica from my dad, which he bought in 99' after his Carolla wagon (actually a really awesome car) got rear ended. My dad fell in love with Toyota's after that wagon (still an old Chevy man though) he went for another Toyota, probably would have been an MR2 if not for the celica.

You never see the Celica around here, it's nice. Yep, I'll keep the Celica for as long as I can. Very nice looking cars, very unique. MR2 or Supra would be nice. But MR2 is a b**** and a half to work on, and Supra's are expensive unless you go MKIII or earlier. AE86 Corolla or 1GC or 3GC liftback would be nice to have.
