What was your other choice?, next to celica Options

[Redline_Racer]

when you guys bought your cars what where you comparing it to? for me it was either my celica, 98 GS eclipse, or a 98 tiburon. I chose my celica because it is soo much sexier than the other cars.

[prompt]

It was either a 96' Maxima SE or 96 eclipse. But eclipses seem to have to many problems.

[Coomer]

Back in the day before I got the Celica I was considering a 200SX, older 240SX, or a 3rd gen. Integra. I'm so glad I got the Celica instead of those cars.

[BLINKYxMUNKEY]

i was comparing it with 94 - up eclipses and 94 - 99 integras.

[Jen]

I wanted an Integra or F250.. but I'm glad I got my celica.

[Jdog1385]

wanted a 71 chevelle, but then i realized that it was an insane amount of money.

looked at an integra

[Blakout16]

i was given my celica, aint that the coolest.

[Consynx]

Supra, MR2, Integra, 300ZX, 2.5RS, WRX.
all turbo ideas got killed by rents.
2.5RS was nowhere to be found, and the integra...well, no GS-R's or Type R's that were nice

[orvillescelica]

near the end it was down to the celi or the eclipse. But it wasnt really a choice, since there was no way my dad would let me get anything but a toyota/lexus.

[Phat_99CeliGT]

i went to buy a 98 Ram 1500. lift, mud tires, duals. AWESOME!!!

they sold it the morning i went to pick it up(after i told them not to sell it)
that night i saw the Celica and picked it up the next day.

[Supersprynt]

Celica fell in my lap, didnt even drive it before i bought it ( i was 250miles away).

[Mike]

96 mustang gt

[Ale_lock]

Honda Civic DX Hatch, I did so much researching with their jdm engines & hybrids for nothing, bleh. In a way I hate that I researched all the info for nothing so I been thinking of also getting me the DX Hatch & commit to that first since its cheaper to modify & bigger aftermarket.

[StrangerDanger]

Mustang GT, Mustang Cobra, keep my 65 stang and replace the cheap engine with a 302, Corvette, ...

[Jeremy1210]

I was going to get 95 Trans am, glad I chose the celica

[latinomasfino]

96 civic ex or a GMC sierra truck LOL

[CelicaBuddy]

Heh heh! I had a ton of backups....
1. supra
2. hundai tiburon
3. honda prelude
4. 98 spyder eclispe
5. mercury cougar

7. civic ( I know... how shamefull of me)

There was a couple more... but I cant remember. But yea I had a lot of choices

[chucho]

96 Avalon fully loaded

[Redline_Racer]

I think we all have thought about an eclipse or a honda at one time or another... there are just soooooo many of them around here.

-Brandon

[saleeka]

97 or newer Prelude... kinda wish I went that route now because the money I saved with the celi will now be blown out the window with the higer millage it had and the matinance it now needs... i still say my celi is sexier though

[creis]

96 mustang GT
95-96 jetta (VR6 only)
240sx

[Kamakiri]

Either a DSM, 5th gen, or 6th Gen...... 6th gens are the best looking cars on the road.... so thats what I went for.....

[amysmojo]

I thought about getting a 2003 tiburon but every place I called had already sold what they had etc. But Im glad I found my Celica! Love @ first site awwww The dealer dude wanted me to buy this red 96 eclipse but well...I obviously didnt get it

[The__J__Factor]

ow man i wish i had an extra 2gs to buy a 1997 + prelude V-tir model.
I love preludes soooooo much, i think soon as i save up a bit of money im gonna sell me celica and buy a prelude!!!

ow the celica is good, but it aint no prelude with crazy vtec, and ive only had my celica for like a 3months but i need more power already.

i also wanted a 300zx or a FTO but parents didnt want me having an import or a turbo in the 300s case.

[ghostdog]

mr2 or miata. no regrets with the celi tho

[macavely]

well with the GT.. I aslo looked at and 98 A4 1.8T... (wanted what i once had...) and also looked at a Civic Si ... (but didn't want to make car payment) so i went back to the first car i found that i was looking for 95 Celica GT - Fully loaded... only spent 50 bucks out of pocket..

[FallenHero]

yall are gonna get a kick from this one...

91 300ZX TT Vs. Celica. Took the celi for gas mileage and longevity... now I get freaking <25mpg.

[LatinKraze]

I was searching for an AE86 or a del sol w/ vtech, but fell for my celi.

[johnsonius_87]

i thought about a tiburon or an eclipse- always really wanted a celi tho. then, my bro (subsolo_21) lost his mind & bought a civic, so i got his celica. he really disappointed me, but he just traded the civic on a mazda protiege. i LOVE my celica.
-Elizabeth

[importceli]

lets see
-honda civic (just b/c of how many fookin parts are out there for em and their kinda cheap)
-eclipse gsx
-prelude
-supra
-240sx
-integ type-r
-mr2

but, got a family deal on the celica who knows what i woulda bought if the deal wasn't there...but i love it now, ive come to terms with the convertable (even tho id like a hatch more -_-)

[Digndoug]

wow, im suprised how many wanted a eclipse or a integra. I personally never liked eather.

after i wrecked my 525i I wanted another one
so:
91-95 BMW 525i
92-95 BMW 325i
95 Trans am
96 maxima
97 audi a4

To be honist I kinda wish I got the bimmer, or really any of the other.. but then again this was cheaper..

[1900WattCelica]

I got my first 94 ST Hatch for 5700. I was looking for 2nd Gen Eclipses and Preludes also but couldnt come across any in my price range about 2 years ago. The celica was the only car of the 3 that I test drove out of the cars that I was considering.

Just recently my girlfriend and I test drove 3 eclipses because thats her dream car.....and all 3 were just junk...not taken care of at all, and the transmissions had problems. She just bought a 96 Honda Civic instead. As much as some rip on Hondas....this one is bone stock and clean and Id have to say it is a very nice car. Not as quick as my GT tho

Hey has anybody noticed how when they first test drove 6th Gens that you never really paid attention or it seemed like you never saw them. Then after you bought one you seem to see them all the time...or your "6th sense" gets much better haha

[dustin15brown]

98 (I think) Mustang SVT Cobra, came down to the meer thought of gas, winter (RWD) and insurance to lead me to the celi. At time when I drives my friends 94 BOSS 302 stang i wish but overal I wouldn't part with the celi for now.

[Uppitycracker]

My next chouce was a mr2-t, and I took it

I was debating getting a 6th gen but do to the shear lack of them, which leaves even less good ones, Im thinking of going with a 92-96 Honda Prelude si or vtec, they are hot ass cars and really dont leave much to be desired, where I find 6th gens need a good amount to look sleek, thats just me though.

[Hym3n]

I own my other choice. It's my dream car (well, as close as I can get to it at this age). A '95 Mitsubishi 3000GT SL. Fully loaded. Celica's for sale...

-brian

[Magic]

Ehmmm...

Probably this one....




Loaded.....

[Sh0gunkid8721]

my mom helped me pay for this car so she made it plain and simple. I wanted to buy my cousins 3000gt VR4, but the insurance in NJ is ridiculous. So she said u either by the used Celica u found or a new Corolla (2000 at the time).
