Dude, I hear ya. The starter and my accelerator pedal have both gone on the fritz.

Then when I realize how slow the stock GT is compared to some newer models, I find myself thinking "What about an engine swap?" but I have an auto and that would likely require a trans. swap which I have no idea how to do or who to trust to do it.

"What about a new car?" Supras are a bit out of my reach financially right now and they aren't exactly 'new' for around $20k. Besides, I just love my celi.

So man, all I can say is hang in there like a hair in a pancake. Mine is at 115k miles and sure, I know stuff it going to pop up.

But hey, can you swap a 3s-gte into a Festiva? I don't think so. Can you get ~28 avg. mpg in a Camaro SS without coasting to work? Nope.

So cheer up buddy! We're here for ya.
