Im brand new, had to make an account to post this up, looking for a celica, always loved the 6G but looking for a 7G. However, i did find this gem on craigstlist up in north central Illinois..

http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/cto/4372529576.html

In case you see this late, it is a flawless 1994 red celica in this guys showroom/garage. It has 8,785 original miles with one owner. He is asking $10,500 for it, and 100% stock. The perfect buy.

I think cars are meant to be driven, not collecting dust.

it would be mind blowing 20 years from now to see a 94 GT with less than 10k on the clock.

You will never find a '94 Celica with that low of mileage ever again! I agree with the other members, these cars are meant to be driven and enjoyed.

This car looks really nice and it's amazing that it was kept in such great condition but I agree with The_enD

Too bad it's not worth and never will be worth what he's asking. Every single bit of rubber is going to be rotten and useless, I wouldn't even drive that thing away as it's likely it would spring several leaks on the way back and die by the side of the road. $6500 tops is what I would offer, after so many years miles don't matter. It's not like it's a hotly sought after collectors car or incredibly rare model, it's a loaded GT. It's not a GT4, it's not a 72 Toronado, it's not a 68 Chevelle.

A car sitting that much is probably the worst thing for it.. Like bitter said, it's going to have dry rot all over. Probably will need a fuel pump and the tank probably has growth inside of it like you'd see in a cave.

Lol wow... Hell, I have a hard time seeing them getting $5K for it. Yeah it's cool and all to see, but like Bitter stated, it's not rare or collectible.

I was seriously about to look it up and give them a call and offer him an offer he could not refuse but the automatic transmission just killed the motivation.

I never want a car with that low of miles. I would feel terrible driving it even an inch. If I can't dive it, what's the point of having it?

I think the same dude also has a red fully loaded 1990 Toyota Supra with some ridiculously low miles too. I think he was asking about the same price as well.

If it's a Turbo 5-speed I could see paying a premium for it. Of course, you could only drive it once in a blue moon just to keep things from seizing up again...
