Tell Me what you think, Getting a new celica. Options

[Guest_Matthew_*]

Okay as most of you know I am working day and night to get cash so that I can do the 3S-GTE swap and AWD conversion. But my car is an automatic. I have looked into this and have found out some pretty interesting and expensive things. They will have to drill a hole in the firewall and run a new clutch pedal. Plus just taking out an Automatic tranny will be difficult in itself. Also does anyone know if the mounts for an auto are the same for a manual? And my girlfriend really likes the automatic tranny in the car right now. Obviously as most of you have guessed she doesn't know how to drive a manual. I figure that if I had a celica that was a stick that the swap would be easier. So my question is : Should I get a high mileage 6th gen GT and have it repainted some badass color like that Supra on the fast and the furious and just keep the green car like it is. I mean cuz it already has the turbo kit on it. And I could just keep it for a winter car.


Once again do you think that I should just get a manual celica gt and do the conversion on that?

Thanks for the input.


Edit: Also about the paint. Any color would be fine. I might even paint it the same as my other one.
