As a ex-celica owner (sold it 3 months ago), I'm still obsesed with it.
I've also heard that the new owner ****ed it up even more!!! I'm sad. ... I've been driving a 98 Mercedes ML320 (SUV) that I bought back in December, but it's not as fun as my old celica. The reason that I bought SUV (besides being 6'7"), is that i've had too many tickets with all the previous cars. I'm not 21 yet (untill July) and I've already ****ed up 3 times. Yes, my license has been suspended three times. Lawyer fees have been up to $5,000 mark (heh, the price of engine swap), and basically if I would have gotten a single ticket, I would have to say bye-bye to my license for a long time. Well that's at least untill you turn 21 (according to Illinois law since they have a lot stricter rules compared to 21 and above). Basically I've been ticket free for over 2 years (heh, I had to), and once I turn 21 one i'm planning to buy a new car. I would still keep the SUV for business purposes, but a new (used) sporty car. All the way uptill now my choice has been a 99-00 Corvette that I can pick up in about $25K price range... THIS IS WHAT CHANGED MY MIND ![]() OH MY GOD SO SEXY (Celi in the new Juiced game) basically this is the same body kit as my old celica!!! so right now I'm debating if I should get a Corvette in July or just pick up a '99 Celica GT (Hatch) and spend the other $10K in go+show mods (3sgte + veilside). |

Vettes be fast...and if I had that kinda money I'd prolly go for a little older with low miles and mint. My Gramps just bought a 93 40th Anniversary Edition LT1 with 53k original miles and already had custom piping for $17k.
Yeah the Vette is nice...definitely ride is nice and whatevah...but man look on ebay! Find a few Supras on there in your price range and go check em out...most are in either Florida or Cali so make a weekend trip out of it or something....they be way cheaper out in them places... And if you do go with the Vette then cool man cuz it's ur choice...but too many people have them and of those are mostly old people. That's just my honest opinion... -------------------- 95 Toyota Celica GT
