I can't find the original thread for some reason, but I wanted to share a 6gc sighting from Top Gear with you all:
![]() It's kind of small (photobucket resizes automatically), but you can see a blue 6th gen in Season 13, episode 2 when they are looking for nice "sporty" cars that are well suited for a teens first car. -------------------- |

Was actually going to make a thread about that sighting in that episode of Top Gear but couldn't capture the image. It's quite funny cause they had a budget of 3000 pounds to buy a teenagers car and they could've easily bought a GT4 Celica and beat the challenge but they didn't. Still it was a funny episode.

Well, they still needed money left for insurance and "mods" lol. Plus, did you see how much they trashed those cars? I'd hope no one would try to destroy a gt-4 like that. -------------------- |

I noticed it when I saw the episode as well, just didn't think of how to post it. They should've bought that though, loads better than a Volvo or that Hyundai, and most likely that Vdub.

I've seen a black hatch in Scrubs, not sure about the year. Carla yelled something and the whole surrounding area near the hospital stopped to listen. It shows a scene with stopped traffic and there's a 6GC a few cars back.

And then you got the real GT4 on top gear 15 years ago and they compared it to the Ford Cosworth and Jeremy being the big Ford fan prefered the Ford to the GT4.

I have respect for the Cosworth Escort (not much, but there's a little there) but the GT4 is a hundred times the car that the Escort is in my opinion.

Both cars are pretty comparable, since they both are AWD, same horsepower and pretty much the same weight. It's all about asthetics...and dependability

Actually dude he almost begrudgingly has to admit that the Celica is slightly better but then he says he doesn't like the overall package as much [which is largely subjective anyway] - it's a good watch.

I think he likes Celicas actually lol, I also remember him commenting on the 7th Gen Celica once too saying he drove it and its a good car. -------------------- Speeding doesn't kill! It never has!

My driver's ed book back in high school had a 6gc gauge cluster on the cover and was loaded with pictures of a Celica. I always acknowledged it but never thought I'd own one

Spotted a facelifted convertable in season 3 episode 7 of Bloodline last night. Kinda surprised me to see it in a current tv show.
