I found a 1999 low mileage one owner Celica it only has 25k miles and they want 12k for the car. I know the price is crazy high but when are you ever going to find another 8 year old Celica that is bacically brand new. Should I pull the trigger or keep looking?

The price varies somewhat depending on what region you're in. I looked high and low within a 500 mile radius of Portland, OR for a car like that, the closest I came was a 97 with I think like 150k on it for around 8k. (Turned out I just couldn't afford it anyway.)
I think 12k for a 99 with so few miles on it is not only a great deal, but a great find. Negotiate—EVERYTHING is negotiable! You can probably walk away with it for 10 and a half if you wave a little cash at them and finance it. If you're buying it to mod though, I'd pass on it because it doesn't matter if it's 25k or 250k on the engine in that case. Plus, wouldn't a '99 with 25k on it still be under the original warranty at least for another year? Sweet! Make sure you Carfax it to ensure the odometer hasn't been messed with. Check all the VINs. -------------------- ![]() |
