Well i just bought i 1997 Celica Convertible Auto and its nice to have a nother one. I had a 94 Celica Coupe but i sold her when i bought my 94 Supra TT 6spd. I picked this one up for 150 bucks. she needs a little tlc on body and a new motor since a piston went through the block. let me know what you think.






Here is a pic of my old celica

What boggles my mind is how do people like you find other people to sell them a car for so cheap. Every time I looked, every time I spent hours, weeks, months to find myself something used (even if completely broken)... the original owner always wanted like an arm and a leg for whatever it was that I was looking for.

My co-worker for example has a 25th anniversary 6gc with almost 300,000 miles on it.. barely working... gnawned through by her dogs... covered in the scratchiest scratches ever... and she still does not want to sell it even for a 1000 dollars which is probably 9 times more than her car is worth...

Good buy mate. Make sure the frame is not bent
