I know that it's a bit early (Seeing that i've only had my car for about 5 months!!),but i was thinking about my next car. I was wondering what u guys are thinking of after your celica. Even though i would love to keep the celica forever, i would have to sell it in a few years to fulfill my lifetime ambition - Toyota Supra tt targa top!!!!
 (Makes me smile even thinkin about it!!)

In Australia it has the option of a V6 with NOS and body kit. Not sure if has a turbo in it too? 
Don't go knocking Z's, the Supra I feel is overated and priced. But it could be cause I drive a Z. Has that white car in the dark got a Turbo K2_Celica? At the moment that's all I can think of my 300ZX and it's Turbo's. |

i'm keeping my celica for crazy mods and for a "beater" car. (yea im using the word beater term a different way)
cause i want my next car to also be sports but with luxury. i've had my eye on the 1999 carrera 4s for a long time now. hopefully in 4 years it will be in my driveway. those are the two cars i want in my garage. celica & porsche. but i'm gonna be watching the super cars that are gonna come out in the future...i might change my mind.

I'd like to get a Lancer EVO or a IS300 or some cool sedan as my next car, but that won't be for a long time, and I still plan to keep the Celica.
Four doors would sure be nice though.

A Z32. I'm pretty much set on it. Been "shopping" around for one for a while now, and I frequent 300zxclub.com. So yeah, 300zx...however, if I can get pre-approved for enough, I'm gonna look for a MKIV. But you just can't beat the Z, with T-Tops...I need T-Tops.

My list is like doGGy's except in different order
0. Celica GT4 (0 because there is 0% chance of me getting one )  props to OReO for the GT4 pics. 1. Supra TT (hopefully aerotop)   1. Skyline R34 GTR (and no I am not living in a dream world).   2. Subaru WRX STi (would get a new one in a couple of years)   The supra and skyline got equal 1st because I can't decide although if the blonde model comes with the supra then I'm there! What does everyone else think I should get?

kamixZR - No I don't think the chick comes with the Supra. Also Skylines are HOT. Saw a blue one drive by the other day when I was out in the Z it looked soooo good. Me personlly I was going to get a Supra TT aerotop but this really good one was au$45,000 so I wen't to see the owner and I bought one his other cars, a 300ZX TT. au$17,500 and I got lots of money to get upgrades which are comming from Japan no hurry for those. Plus he runs a little motorshop and he has Skylines GTR's there all the time, there was a one the other day with a full Nismo 400R kit my jaw droped. So I think I would go for the GTR over the WRX and Supra. Off topic the Skyline and Supra following are much bigger than GT4 and WRX therefor a slightly better investment for resale when the kids arrive. Or buy a minie van for ya gal. Cody
I hear that. And K2_Celica Nice list of upgrades there.

The supra has always been my dream car (In a reasonable price range!!), the skyline is also up there, but the supra does it for me. I can get a used 96 tt 4 about 9k (In £ not $ !!!), but in a few years that should come down (With my insurance hopefully!!!!!!!!!!!!)

i like the zx, but i would say that the supra has better look, in my opinion anyway. the zx is a bit to 'squared', another car on my hit-list was the mitsibushi GTO (Or 3000GT - whatever it's called in your area!!), but i was told they have sh*t handeling, but i would still go 4 the supra - in silver.

VW makes a turbo diesel engine called the TDi (strange, eh?). it's not very strong, but by no means weak. 1.8T is much much better.
the 1.8T is a straight up 5 cylinder turbo. it's one of the most reliable engines with HUGE amounts of potential for big HP... the good thing about the jetta, gti and A4 is that they all share the 1.8T. so, upgrading turbo stuff is pretty much universal. i love my celica and all, it's my first car. but...i have switched to the euro side. the only jap car that i like anymore is my celi, hahaha... 1.8T poooowwwwaaaaaaa!!! |

Well, at the shop I just went to there was a supra with a totally rebuilt engine, direct injection NOS, a fat ass turbo and a beuatiful interiour, the backseat area or whatever was all covered over and had some fat subs in it.... it was a very nice supra! So I might have to lean that way...

A Firebird Trans Am and put a supercharger or turbocharge on it...
Or a Chevy Camaro and do the same to it... or a Stupid Mustang and do the same to it... Why because at least with them, there is a richness and classy demeanor about them, not like a 6gc that in my honest opinion sucks, okay See yah later... Mica in classy mode... |

Just the other day in another forum you were saying that your auto ST was beating Vettes and Vipers and turboed Trans Ams. Now you're saying your ST sucks. You don't even know what you're saying. I demand a five second rule on you: think about something for five seconds before you write it. Domestic cars aren't classy, either. They're cheap, and a dime a dozen. They're fast, but not classy. Mustangs and Camaros should come with a free wifebeater, dew rag, and barbed wire tattoo. |

Yea, lets not go crazy here people. My brother has a 2002 trans. It's his A-B transport. Domestics are ok cars if you are into that kind of thing. But Celicas and Hondas and other cars are good as well. It's all about what you are into. The only time there is a problem is when people of one group start bashing people of the other. wait wat...stupid people start the bashing. Sorry, had to correct that.

next car? difficult one that... I hope to keep my gen 6 for as long as possible. I've never had a car so reliable thats also quick and still looks great.
None of the new car designs around take my fancy - too angular including the new celica. Curves rule! Funnily enough, I really like some of the US domestics I see. They are so rare in the UK that they would stand out from the usual. -------------------- Facelift bumper-foglights-clear indicators, clear side repeaters, 16in O.Z alloys, stainless steel grill. JDM facelift tail lights. clear sidelights. Retro-fit A/C conversion. APEX performance springs. Remus exhaust. K&N performance filter. KYB excel G shocks.
Hyundai coupe Mk 3 (US Tiburon) leather seats. Gen 7 s/wheel. SR black vinyl door cards. Late spec spoiler-less tailgate with 3rd brake light. |

Oh, I'm not knocking the Z, it's a great car... but I'm biased too. I think Toyota makes some of the highest quality cars out there. On a reliability scale, Nissan is probably in the top 5.. but Toyota is number 1. The design of the MKIV Supra was so far ahead of it's time.. I still think it's damn sexy... but unfortunatly, as you said, the Supra is crazy expensive. I keep waiting for them to come down, but it never happens... patience is running out. |

Why does everyone think that Supras are so expensive? You can get a 93 for less than a new car. Well yeah, sure, $13k - 18k is a lot for an old car like that, but it's worth it.
Z32s have a lot of problems - but thats because they're 12 year old cars. Most of the problems I hear are with turbos going out, but thats only because they have 100,000+ miles on it. You could expect that the same with a 93 Supra running the stock turbos (not that anyone has them nowadays...). |

Aus I think the 96 TT Supra for £9k has to be an auto? Sounds too cheap for a manual.
Over here they are everywhere are go for around $25k-$40k AUD = £10.5k-£18. This post has been edited by kamixZR: Sep 3, 2003 - 4:47 AM |
