So I'm looking to get into this whole Celica Scene for a commuter vehicle and had a couple of questions.....

First I'm looking to buy a 1994 Toyota Celica St with 215k on the body and about 115k on the motor which I'm told is the 4A-Fe and stock 5 speed Tranny.

Now down to the business of everything Celica related, What kind of gas mileage should I be pulling? Also what would you think is a proper price? The body is in good shape and clear is faded but not too bad. And are there any problem areas I should be made aware of when I go to look at it like popular rust spots or weak parts?

Sorry for all these questions but I've always been a Camaro man and I know little to none about imports and 4 bangers. Thanks for any and all input no matter how small or simple. I need all the help I can get haha

Yeah well I don't know anything about this kind of car and the motor is all new to me and they all look the same anyways. I guess I'll just run casting numbers and see what matches up haha.

I figured these cars would be slow as hell but thats kinda the point, this is going to be my commuter to get back and forth from home to school and I'll leave the speed to my 1986 Z28 Camaro That was my DD until I moved 2 hours away and it only gets about 13 mpg highway haha.
