The car is all origional. 56k miles, rwd, 1.8l 3T (F) engine, and is pretty much spotless. He's willing to sell it to me for $750 and I'm seriously considering it. The car is so cool. I drove it around last night (5 speed) and it was a blast.

It even has the origional oil cap with he jdm Toyota badge.

Anyone ever own one of these? How much would it raise my insurance to own it as a summer weekend car?

if you register it as a classic, which means you can only drive it so many miles in a year, not that much at all. It also depends on how old you are too lol

Lmao you guys are getting too excited. This is not the hatch or the two door, this is the poop brown sedan.

Pic:


It's not that special lol. It has potential to be fun, but it's a mild grandma car at this point and I was thinking of using it just as a friend transport/restore project. If it was the hatch or the coupe, I wouldn't even be asking lmao. I'd have it already.

Of course, then I see things like this: lmao...


ugh. I still don't know what to do. I can't really afford it right now, even though it is $750. I don't have a place to store it when I move into my apt.

AND THEN I FIND AN 86 GTS CELICA TODAY FOR $800! Wtf. I need to stop finding epic Toyota's....
