6G Celicas Forums

$9,000 i am lowering the price again, this is the rock bottom lowest i will go on this car so dont ask. i need this car gone before i ship out to the army, otherwise its going to go down to my parents farm to get stored for god knows how long. i have it for sale locally but i would prefer it to go to one of you guys, some one that knows these cars and would take care of it.

first off it is awd. it is a swap, so it is 100% legal. the donor car was sent over from japan cut in half then it was swapped to an american vin celica over the course of about 3 years. everything on this car was done correctly and was dailyed for 3 years before i bought it, now it mostly sits in my garage staying clean.

it is relatively stock minus bc coilovers, turbo back exhaust, boost controller, hks ssqv bov, aem wide band. brand new 17x7.5 bbs rs reps with brand new 215/45/17's 25mm spacer in the front and 35mm spacer in the rear.

the exterior has all the nice gt4 goodies, including oem kouki projector headlights, kouki tailights, oem gt4 riser blocks, oem aluminum gt4 hood, oem gt4 fenders and bumper, jdm folding mirrors

interior is pretty stock too minus a couple gauges, kouki front and rear seats, navi uinit, and head liner a,b,c pillars covered in black alcantera

the only bad on this car is it has 2 torn cv boots got a quote to fix them, and was going to do it this winter when im not driving it, and the windshield squirters dont work, but other than that i have never had a problem with it.

thanks for looking. if you have any questions dont hesitate to ask

you can text me @ 503-481-452o

Wow that's a sad site

But on alittle lighter note you did tell the guy to join here right?

Wow..i dont want to sound terribly fuked up but, i never knew a human could do that much damage. **** it, this is sad as ****. Not for the cars sake (just a piece of moving metal) but for a woman who died (drunk or not)......Man its really good to see you survived that. **** is sad as hell man....

^This!.....

Lets put this into perspective....

at 72mph, I hit a large 8pt buck on the interstate with the end result looking like this



This is what a human did.... incredible

You gotta remember, lightweight aluminium hood vs heavy steel hood. Plus the obviousness of physics. I can take a slug and throw it at your chest and all your gonna be is annoyed, but if I shoot it at you faster than the speed of sound, you have a hole in you the size of an orange.

I thought about the hood differences.... but wasn't sure if anyone was privy to the DRASTIC differences between aluminum and steel

I can't imagine he was traveling faster than 70-75 though.... unless he was stretching his new car's legs out...

That's just terrible. Can't really put it into words, after seeing that picture... I know I'd have to sell the car, I couldn't handle keeping a car that killed another person. Regardless of it not being my fault... Still... I highly suggest the new owner seeing a therapist, I know I'd have to.

That is SAD... And yea, putting durability of metals in vehicles into perspective, I nailed a white-tail doe at about 40mph in a ford ranger a few weeks back, and it bent something which pushed the bumper back about an inch... deer couldn't have weighed more than 100lbs, and i was only doing 40... yet i can beat the **** out of that same bumper and no movement what so ever. doubling the weight and speed along with cutting the strength of the front end in half, it's easy to see that kind of damage... still a sad situation though.

I'll let y'all know if I end up with the same/worse luck once I finally get my 3yr FF/3S-GTE swap running... richee3 knows exactly what I'm talking about.

Looking at the car again, its is completely salvageable. Although, BOX you are right. Ive seen some mess in my time, involving dead bodies and such and i couldnt even think about driving a car that killed someone...Much less the graphics that would play in my head after the fact. To the new owner i really hope the best for you as well!

Just heard about this car being wrecked in a completely unrelated post on Facebook. Talk about bad luck...

How's the owner doing? Was it ever fixed?
