Hey Everyone,
I'm just curious as to why everyone bought their sixth generation Celica. I bought mine because I saw a red hatch with 17" Focal Z1 rims at school a couple years ago, and I fell in love with the looks of the car! I thought I'd never be able to afford one, but I got a pretty good job more than a year ago and now I'm loving life with my Celi. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

Yes griffgurl you are right with the 15yr rule. American likes to wait 25 years for such rules to NOT apply. And as far as shipping it over through the military. Lol, my friend LilJoe on this site acn answer that question best. I think it goes, that their is a list the military has that says what cars they will/will not ship. A non-conforming list i think is what its called. And to ship a vehicle pretty much, you have to find your own importer, one that can bring the vehichle up to "stateside regs" and the the military will worry about shipping. Noe of course your vehicle will still have to be on that list saying that it non-conforms, and needs this and that to be legal in america. And yes the 6th gen is on that list. Not too sure if it covers the GT4 though. But that for vehicles coming from japan. And the rules are different in europe. Also i think i mightve gotten some of that info wrong
 Oh and also, griffgurl yes there are two wars going on and having money sent to the troops over there is a very important thing. Lol, trust me im here now, and if we need something ill be glad to get it. But also, you have to keep in mind that the shipping of cars and vehicles at the militaries expense, is one of our benfits. Due to us PCS'ing all the time, and its meant to help take the load off of our backs when we move base to base. And yes its useful. Over the past 6 years ive only spent 1.5 years in the states, and i had to leave a car back in america that im still paying money on, just for the military. IM not looknig for sypathy, but hey, thats how it works out for us. And besides they (the goverment) set aside so so much money every fiscal year for things like that which shuold cover all branches...so ehh.... besides im sorry but i think ive gotten this thread alittle off subject...sorry mods
