6G Celicas Forums

been looking around autotrader, ebay, craigslist, etc

I have noticed that celis with 220K have stickers of nearly 4grand.

Even worse, there arent much for sale.

I fyou know of a cheap project celica let me know. Im talking about less than 700 dollars.

I have to agree. It took me 2 years to find my 3rd 6th gen celica, down in texas lol. I mean, our celicas were well built. Didn't have so many plastics like the newer ones.

If by stickers you are referring to my car then yes there are cars with stickers for over 4000. That does not meat that you need to consider vehicles you can not afford.
There are thousands of celicas in 2000 price range that look bone stock and have 100-180000 miles on them. In some cases you just need to travel out of state.

One thing to keep in mind is that any modified car will cost more than a non modified car. Also in most cases it costs double and triple to modify a car than it does to purchase a modified car.

Edit: Another thing that I forgot to add is this: Just because a car is listed for something does not mean that you cant bargain for it. Here is an example.. say I was selling a lexus for 35000. KBB list value for personal transactions marks that car at 35000 so person lists it accordingly. If you walk in there with 33000 cash.. person would be a lot more inclined to sell the car than if you came there with 30000 and a check from some creditor. Same goes with used cars... even old used cars. If you make a good offer then a seller who lists his or her car for 4000 could probably bite a lip and sell it for 3500.. which is a heck of a lot better than spending 4000 on buyers part.

by stickers is like the sticker price, like the decals you see on the windows on car lots, its figutrative speech. Was not referring at anyones car.

shipping may kill the deal for you, but there are a few good deal on " project car " around me.
