What made you buy your celica? Options

I know this question has been asked in many versions before but since there have been quite a few new people who has joined I figured it could be brought up again.

"what made you buy your celica?"

I bought mine because I enjoyed the body curves and the fact that it would be rare for me to see them out on the road.

Honestly, I don't know how I got into toyotas though. My whole family drove nissans as I grew up. ( I wouldn't mind having a nissan 300zx though . Another rare car to see on the road, for me anyways)

Well i bought my car when i was in the "ricer" scene and didnt know the slightest thing about engine mechanics, much less car mechanics. So when my father and i went to carmax (My sister was the GM so i got a steal on any car in the lot) , i test drove many cars and to my dissapointment did not want any of them. So we were about to leave and i saw the toyota celica and got in it, did not even test drive it and i knew that i wanted it. (Then i thought it looked fast so i figured, "It must be fast") I soon found the true potential of my celica, heh what a suprise it was! So i was still in the "ricer" scene and still tried to race cars and sometimes i would win. Then i found this great site and read about engine mechanics and for some weird reason made me RESPECT my car and the mechanics that drive it and so i stoped racing and driving it hard. I have been reading up on this site every night for the past year, reading and re-reading topics and stickys so i can swap a 3sgte engine into my car. Hopefully everything will work for me.. Thats my story!
