This is Celica related - read on.
OK I got an extreme dilemna here. i already have my GT2 which is my weekend car/money pit. So as to not drive that everyday I just bought a LS400 with low milage and all the options for my DD. It needs rims, suspension and paint. But today along comes a black ES300 from a friend that just needs an ignitor coil [Which I have laying around] to run great. Good paint, great tint, stereo etc - It's got the 1mz-fe. I'm half tempted to buy it and garage both the other two cars and just DD this one -or- buy this one and a Celica shell and build a v6 Celica. On the other hand - don't I have fcukin enough cars as it is? IDFK what to do. --------------------  ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM)  Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

I did consider flipping it - that's a def option. Unfortunately our new car tax laws will force me to pay the tax on what the car should be worth vs the cheap price I paid for it. In other words - 10% of whatever that car with those options and that mileage is worth from KBB - more govt BS.
