Sad Day, I knew it Options

[JoKeRkId613]

As the whole world know, the last year for the Celi is 05. I knew that, of course, but I've been real caught up with work that I haven't been online much except for 6GC. I went on the Toyota website and it's kind of sad not to see the two sports cars there anymore. I guess the tC wins. Whatever. Just felt like posting something. Goodbye to the MR2 and the Celi.

And then TRD is discontinuing their crap. What's the world comming to? I guess it's time to buy a new car! Lol. J/K. I hope my Celi didn't hear that.

damn bro, you just put me in a bad mood, lol.

but yea its a real shame

The closest thing Toyota has to a sports car now is the Solara, and thats just a 2-door Camry.

Toyota does have a sports car. The tC. That is a 2-door camry! Damn 2AZ!!! If you don't want to count in Scion or Lexus, then yeah, the closest thing Toyota has to a sports car is the Solara. This sucks.

[hellsyphon]

lol dont get me started about the tC... the only thing that is going for that car is its looks, comfortable ride, quietness, and aftermarket support. The car's brakes are horrible and the brake pedal feels spongy and you have to push it pretty far to stop the car. The handling is ponderous and its maddeningly quiet in there. I felt like when I was accelerating that I was going back in time!

Personally quietness, anemic acceleration, and mediocre handling, and a chasis based off a european family sedan does not inspire a sporty sense in that vehicle.

I think the celica was a pretty stab at making a sporty coupe. It was light, handling was very capable, and everything about it just felt sporty. Good luck to Toyota in making anything "sporty". Then again Toyota never has done well with the younger crowd and thats what the Scion brand is for. *sigh* I'll miss ya celi and mr.2

We'll allways have what they did make. I think I'm going to be like some of those muscle car guys are. I'm only going to drive cars that I grew up with. Everything coming out is crap. The 90's were the best for cars. That's were I'll live, from now, till I die.

Yeah, I was talking about the Toyota line, If I was talking about Toyota/Lexus/Scion I would have said the Scion tC and the Lexus SC430. Now the SC430, thats a sports car. Sooo hot. 4.3 liter V8 hardtop convertible. But they don't come in a stick

Edit: Forgot to mention, the Solara literally is a 2-door Camry, its full name is the Toyota Camry Solara.

seriously, what is this world coming to? Have you guys seen the new '06 Eclipse? The thing is so ugly(imo). And I don't know why they even call it an Eclipse any more. 3.8L v6 engine with 260 hp. Its more like a 3000GT than anything else Mitsubishi has made. I must say, I will miss being able to kick Eclipse a$$ though....

[Cutrara]

I like the styling, I think it looks futuristic. Nice Power, but I hear the brakes suck.

Word, when I'm 50 my garage will have a '96 Supra, '99 3000GT, '95 NSX, and my coffee table will be a '95 Civic spoiler.

I think every other decade has been good for cars. By 2011 we'll have the fuel thing figured out and sports cars will be available again.

[tin_foil]

Lets hope so....

I saw The Island last night(great movie btw) and afterwards I was talking to my friend about it, and was like, "with all these futuristic movies that have come out lately it sort of sucks, cause the next 3 or 4 generations of cars are already dictated what they have to look like". lol

[Cutrara]

Agree with Mr. Dude on the decade thing.

In 'Back to the Future Part 2' cars flew in the year 2015, I don't think cars will be flying in 10 years, so movies don't decide what cars are like.

God damn.. That tottally sucks one of the major manufats of toyota products is discontinued and toyota is no longer making their celica.

So does this mean celica parts are going to be much expensive and harder to find for us? I would think so....

****...

[Cutrara]

Probably not for us, but the 7th gen guys might be paying more for stuff.

I'm just wating for the right honda to come along, then I'll trade off the Celica. It'll be sad to see her go. But a month later when I've bought cams, injectors, header, and CAI for the same price as a Header for the Celica. I'll be happy, and resiably fast.

[Akimbo]

me and my buddy want to find the very last celica ever produced

[JoKeRkId613]
