looking to replace this with an SS-II, i'm really picky about what i want, so far there is no such thing as a 6gen with 3s-ge,manual,abs,sunroof ... my hunt continues

i wasn't at fault in the crash, and i didn't break any bones, just came out a bit sore

head on, don't really wish to spout what happened other than the other driver was at fault, the car they were driving was a 1990 shape subaru which i would describe as "disintegrated" after the crash while mine remained solid. the other driver received the same bumps and bruises as me but he ended up with a face full of glass.

i test drove another celica recently and felt a bit nervous for the first 5 seconds and then felt right at home again, i'm quite impressed at how solid celicas are i'd definitely have another one.

I dunno if SS-II's had sunroof's?
maybe go for a +96 SS-II or a +96 SS-III (then you get all the goodies manual, body kit, ABS, 3S-GE, Rear lights, or if you go 97 front projectors)

good luck NZER

Are you searching specifically for a SSII with all those?
I've got a UK-spec 6Gen with all the above features.

Ouch that has to suck and good that you were not hurt. Hopefully you get a nice insurance pay out.

My SS-II is similar to what you are after except on abs or sunroof.

Ill say great to see another NZer on here. even tho some dick in a sub cannot drive.
Good luck with the hunt.

there was no insurance involved, the other party paid up and i sold my car to the wrecker for just enough to cover the cost of the towing and storage so i just took everything i could walk away with, most interior pieces, caps, plastic screws, ash tray, coin box, etc. looks like i'm going to be selling 2 sets of 94-95 tail lights to pay for 1 set of 96-98 tail lights. i grabbed they parcel tray as i already know the one i may be buying doesn't have one.

lol, that would be something funny to watch, "get him he's stealing a parcel tray tongue.gif.
what about front lights (the ones that weren't smashed)they'll sell for heaps
theres a front bumber 96+ for sale on trademe if your wanting to go for a newer look?
