Ever since my dad owned a Toyota Cressida, he's been into toyotas & always told me that I'd be owning one as well. Well toyotas are well built & last long but I never saw a toyota that I liked till the 6th gen came about & that's when I joined cnet & this site afterwords cause I knew it'd be the car I'd want to get & I got it & ice cream is yummy. I love the lights the most, I hate when people compare it to an integra because it has a more aggressive look.

I got my Celica through my dad. It was his old car and I remember when I was little I would put the back seats down and put blankets in the trunk and go to drive in movies with him and my mom. I just always thought of it as a cool car and my dad wanted to get rid of it so I bought it for $1,000. It was the best purchase of my life

Pure opertunity kinda thing, just lost my civic, and had a big amount of cash from the insurence, I wanted something better and newer. by chance my celica was listed for the 2nd time at my dads work and I took a test drive, and that was it, she was mine.

Um.. I wrecked my love of my life, my bimmer. And then knew a friend that new a guy that hade toyotas for cheap, then did some searching cause i new nothing bout toyotas.. and then said the only cars i would get was a 6th gen black celica hatch 5 speed or an avalon. and went to go check his lot, and he had a black 6th gen hatch 5-speed. that was his ons so he knew it was in real good condition, then test drove it and it was 10 times better then my bros civic witch i was driving at the time, so i liked it, also it was a lot cheaper then the money i got back from my bimmer so i had money to live off of while i went to school, and he let me take it 2 weeks before paying him.. witch was nice, cause the check didnt clear an i needed a car for school.

I was looking for a new(er) car, had no intention of buying a celi, then my headgasket blew on my old car and i did not have the time to fix it, but i needed a car ASAP. looked for a few days, found the celica at a dealer, researched it, bought it the next day.
