Well, my Celica........died. and I had the mechanic give me an estimate, and it's gonna be like $7,000 to fix it, and the car is only worth like $4,500. So I'm getting a new car. any suggestions on what I should get?

QUOTE(6strngs @ Apr 14, 2007 - 12:01 AM) [snapback]546645[/snapback] you could probably get another used 7afe for like $500. maybe less. maybe spend a couple hundred more to have it rebuilt. then just drop it in. I don't see it costing 7,000 unless he bought the engine brand new from the dealership piece by piece and put it all together.  Our ultimate 7AFE only worth that much?!?!?!?!?!
