This is my first post here. I just searched for a buyers guide but found a bunch of 3sgte info. before i joined the navy, i drove a 91 red celica st with a 5 speed. It wasn't very fast but i loved the car and i have always liked the look of the 6th gen. I found a 94 red manual st for 2000 and already called dibs on it pending me taking it for a test drive.
what do i need to look out for? i know its a toyota and therefore it will last forever but are there any problem areas/important maintenance that could make me spend much more for this car than advertised? thanks for your help. This post has been edited by i_want_vtec: Dec 10, 2007 - 1:25 AM |

What I did before I bought mine was take it to a Toyota dealer and have them inspect it. I can't remember what it cost, but if you have a dealer close by, I suggest giving them a call and see how much it would cost. They caught some minor issues that made a good bargaining chip with the seller.
