What car did you drive BEFORE your 6G? Options

[Badkarma]

Just wondering, what made you all decide to switch from whatever you WERE driving, to a 6g. thought it would be interesting to hear from you all.


Ill Start. i had a toss up between a 95 GT a member Pimped6gen was selling, or a 99 mustang V6 5 spd. couldn't afford the 6g. so i bought the mustang. i've always liked them anyway. but i should've just waited till i could afford the mustang GT. (V6 was kinda under powered, and poor mpg)

So i went from a 94 Geo Metro 5spd, to a 99 Mustang V6 5 Spd, to my two 6g's. one Red Gt Auto Hatch. and One Turquoise GT 5Spd Hatch.

Had to sell the mustang because of the unbelievable amount of Rust i had on it from being in NY all it's life.

....next!

I had an 89 Corolla! Only had the drivers side mirror for some reason! lol Had no choice, it's what my parents bought for me. Then I traded it and bought my 6gc. Which was a car that I just loved exterior wise, plus we were a Toyota family. So as of today it's my DD and I have a 95 Supra hibernating in the garage.

repost...

91 ford ranger xlt black 5 spd 3l v6 (totalled) (I bought)
89 ford tempo (blew frost plug, junked it) (parents bought)
84 pontiac 6000 (sherman tank) (destroyed it on purpose, $400 beater) (dad bought)
86 mitsubishi mighty max 4x4 (blew the engine, replaced it, sold it) (i bought)
78 chevy 1/2 ton c/k (in between all vehicles) (dads truck)
98 PLYMOUTH neon coupe 1.8l SOHC auto FTL (sold) (i bought for some reason, didn't realize i had the crappiest one until it was too late)
95 curren black 3sge auto (wifey's) (i bought)
95 celi hatch white 3sge auto->manual converted (mines) (i bought)

got to japan, got the curren ($1200, which is exactly what i sold the neon for), i was on the lookout for a car for me, and had my eye on a 2jzgte aristo, but the guy wanted $5k for it, and he told me that he had a celica that he was getting rid of and showed me a pic of it on his phone. he brought it over to my house for a test drive, my wife and i loved it (now she hates it), so i bought it... $2300. same engine as the curren but tuned differently and the suspension is completely different.

Cars I've owned, from oldest to latest.

-1988 Ford Thunderbird 3.8 V6. Miss that car to bits. Sold it as the floor was rotting
-2004 Mitsubishi Lancer ES. Totalled.
-1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST. Bought 12400$. 5000$ in repairs and 2 trannys later, I sold it for 9k exactly a year after I bought it.
-1995 Toyota Celica GT-S. Bought in september '06 with 142k km. Total amount of repairs and/or breakdowns since then : 0.

The Celi and the Eclipse have never been driven in the winter (people use salt on the roadshere so it eats up the car real quick) so I've had my share of winter beaters :

-1995 Chevy Cavalier 2.2 auto. 3 headgaskets in 60000km, and that thing was well taken care of.
-1993 Ford Escort 1.9 manual. Bought for 500$ including push start button made out of a doorbell button. 2 months later, brake lines blew, I'm ok, nothing happened. A friend offered me 300$ to go destroy it in a sand pit.
-1992 Honda Civic CX hatch 1.5 non-vtec auto. Meh. Point A, point B.

[DEATH]

-81 Celica GT
-84 Celica/Supra
-86 Celica GTS [2nd gen swap]
and now 3 6gc's in a row

Plus the family/grocery movers:
-95 Saturn SL2 [*Shudders* What a horrible time in my life - I also had no Celica at this time]
-94 Camry V6 XLE
-02 Camry LE
-05 tC

97 Ford Taurus GL bought used at 60k $3000+ in three years on repairs, gave it to the scrap yard at 130,00 miles due to loss of overdrive gear and brake lines rusting out. (further inspection showed rockers rusting-jack went through.)

Damn 97 - that's quite the list. So since you have exstensive driving experience with a wide variety of vehicles - how would you rate the Celica in comparison for say handling, power [I know you're 7A but tell us anyway], looks and overall. How about your other Toyotas?
just looking for an opinion from someone qualified to give one [I think the Celica is the best overall vehicle ever made but looking at my list of previous cars I'm probably the least qualified to give an opinion as every car I've ever bought for myself has been at the very minimum a Celica GT and almost every other car I've bought has been a Camry or tC so...]

well the 94-98 strat/cirrus/breeze are gas sippers if its the 2.0 manual and fun to drive speak from experience but i do like the ride of the celica better, but they are still mopar so imo is blah

[Taskbot]

hahaha my stratus was the 2.4L auto that guzzled gas compared to my Celi and had front end problems which led to its eventual demise through tight windy valley roads

lol sorry to hear my died after a elderly laddy decide her 4runner was a monster truck and turn into me in a parking lot damaged the drivers front, ruptured battery, and headlight to dash wire harness

[Taskbot]

lol sorry to hear my died after a elderly laddy decide her 4runner was a monster truck and turn into me in a parking lot damaged the drivers front, ruptured battery, and headlight to dash wire harness

wait what? battery? front?
Maybe its just the difference between the 2 engines but my battery was tucked conveniently under the back seat where nobody knew to look before it was dragged off to the wreckers.

That sucks, but probably for the best seeing as how you have a Celi now. Still I'm surprised that your experience with the cloud car was positive but then again I heard it was a completely different car in other places. (Like mexico gets it turbocharged )

[Akirad1]

yeah i know what a ripp but i think uk and canda spec where diff and us the battery was in the driver wheel well in front of the tire

[SlickRick]

Learned to drive a Volks Serracco (i am sure i misspelled it) then a chrysler grand caravan to school in high school then my Dad's 1990 Celica 2.2 which got me in2 celli's and the rest is history as they say.

[Random_Stranger]

Drove a Nissan 240sx and blew the engine. My mom wouldn't let me keep in her driveway when I moved out so I had to sell it for $400. Kinda wish I could have fixed it up though and kept it, but now I got something that will make heads turn once it goes the way I want. Plus I have bigger and better cars in the future that I can to my tunnel vision on to.

Kinda have the idea sitting in the back of my mind to sell off both cars to put down a downpayment on a new car ('06+ Civic Si or some kind of sporty sedan) just to be worry-free of problems; only problem is that if I can barely afford the repairs on both cars, how can I expect to handle the cost of the new car? Bleh.

96 Honda Civic Hatch, great car got it for a steal, but sold it to afford my dream car
91 Toyota MR2 Turbo, my dream car and my baby
93 Toyota Paseo, bought as a daily driver, sold due to bearing knock
91 Honda Civic Hatch, sold to make money to rebuild my MR2
92 Toyota Corolla, winter beater, sold to afford college payment
90 Toyota Corolla, sold to buy my 6G
94 Toyota Celica ST, my favorite daily driver

I currently own the MR2 and the Celica, and I am proud to say these are two of the three cars I really want to own, the third
being a supra, but that will come soon

[TRD-ST204]

My first car was a red 1994 sixth generation Celica GT and my second car is another red 1994 6GC GT. My third car will probably be another 6GC, but one that is all-wheel drive with a 3SGTE.

82 Honda Civic
89 Nissan Sentra Sport Coupe
90 Honda CRX

(Did I answer this already? And for the record, if it were my choice or my mom knew how reliable Toyotas were before, I would have had either MKI MR2 or MKII MR2 as a first car. I tried 4x's before I finally got mine)
