My buddy offered to sell me his 7th gen celica.
No rust, MR-S motor with low miles for $4500.    Should I buy it? I'm leaning towards it... lol. Comes with everything plus all the stock parts. Donutes with winter tires. I have to drive this car in MN winter lol. Gonna sell the motors I have laying around to get it. This post has been edited by 99GT: Jan 4, 2010 - 11:19 AM |

Clean, I'd say go for it. 4500 is pretty cheap.

That is hell of cheap. I was looking for over a year for something like that but instead ended up with a 6th gen. That bodykit doesn't look bad either I usually hate them.

7GCs actually look good when done right...such as this. If you have the cash available, I'd pick it up.

The flushness of those wheels is perfect by the way...and I don't mind the kit either. 7GCs take well to kits though, since they already have a factory scoop, etc.
Still keeping the 6GC right? -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

MR-S spyder. 1ZZ is shared between a few cars. Corolla, Celica, and MR-S, but probably more.
