Hello folks,

I'm out on the lookout to buy a straight 6gen Toyota Celica, 96+ would be nice, but 94 is okay as well. GT/liftback trim in manual transmission only.
Expanding this search onto this forum because I'm not getting many results on autotrader and craigslist. Oregon and Washington only please.
Certainly willing to match bluebook values and pay extra for any reasonable modifications. Must be clean title.

Thank you

Sorry to hear that. ST isn't that bad. Only real advantage to the GT is disc brakes on the rear, but can add those to a ST with a little work. I don't feel the extra 20-30 hp depending on year justifies the drop from 28-29/34-35 to 22/28-29(original EPA ratings). The GT also weighs almost 200 pounds more(ST versus GT liftbacks anyway). I have a ST and am very pleased with it. Just something you might want to consider.

That's not true. The GT is also a direct swap for 3sgte, and how many st's got power stuff? And the brakes.. and the 5s.. 20-30 HP is a lot when you only make 90-130..
