I might be getting rid of the Celica Options

[darksecret]

Alright when my dad first bought the car for my brother he got it from a shady little dealership for $6,700 2 years ago, well I took up the payments on it since it's of course a Celica, well I went to get the registration renewed and find out that the dealership told the bank and my dad it had a clean title, well it doesn't it's registered in NC with a salvage so i'm giving the car back to my dad and he's sueing for the cost of the car. Well since i'll be out a car and have $6,700 to get another I think i'll be getting this one if it's still in good shape (when I talked to the first owner of the Celica he did say he wrecked it but it wasn't more than a bent fender and busted bumper, and the chassis is still in factory form or he got a hell of a body shop to fix it).

The Stealth is basically a 3000GT (yeah the GT does look better), they have the same potential though (friend of mine has a 526whp Stealth R/T AWD), plus any year 3000GT VR-4 is very hard to find for a good price. It will probably be a '95 Talon TSi AWD that I choose, it's the best out of the box potential for the best price (I got my '96 TSi for $3,000).

As for my Celica I did some research with people other than the previous owner and the car has been put into a ditch at 90 mph (police est.) and it has been flipped before, the trim line above the side glass (driver and passenger) has about a 1/4" gap the is about 2' long so that is a good sign it's been rolled, plus the sunroof is new and the windshield isn't original. I will say the body shop that worked on this car did an excellent job considering what has been done, but being able to get the money that the car was purchaced for is hard to turn down. I had a plan to convert it to a 3SGTE RWD car, but I will not do anything major to any car that has been through what this car has, so later i'll still keep this plan in mind, besides i'm working on getting a 4G63 into an '02 Lancer OZ, even though it uses a 4G block it is still harder than it seems. Also my car still has about $1,600 left on it and that means i'll have $5,100 (or somehting around that range) for another car so even the AWD Talon might be a little out of my range.
