Well guys....I've been a member forever on here, but I think that my time has come. I've decided that I'm really not looking to soak any money into my car and I'd like to buy something newer since i'll be driving back and forth to college alot this next semester. So here it goes...

FOR SALE-
THE CAR-
I'm selling my silver 1994 GT Liftback, with ALL options offered that year. These include 5-speed manual transmission, 8-speaker sound system with two power amps, black leather seating, power windows, power doorlocks with keyless entry, and power windows, cruise control and A/C. Also on the car is a power sunroof that DOES NOT LEAK, rear spoiler, rear window wiper, rear window defogger, as well as dual airbags. All these factory features are in perfect working condition.

MODIFICATIONS-
The car is mainly in stock trim, with only a few minor upgrades. These Include-

- Greddy/Trust Shift knob
- Panasonic Dot-Matrix display headunit, running a set of 4" Kicker REsolution components in the front doors, (2) 8" Kicker midbass in the doors, (1) 10" Polk/MOMO sub in the trunk.
- Short-Ram intake
- iRotors.com cross-drilled and slotted rotors and Hawk Ferro-carbon brake pads (installed about 1k miles ago.)

THE GOOD-
The car that you see below was absolutely babied by me. Always. I never raced the car, or drove it abusively in any way while I owned it, since thats not how I drive. I am only the second owner of the car, the previous owners of which were family friends of my fathers and bought the car brand new in Clinton, NJ and was adult driven and maintained for about 8 years of its life. I bought the car completely stock about 3 years ago now, and have ALWAYS maintained the car excellently. All recent service records are included. Heres a list of what little I've had to repair-

- Passed inspection only a month ago
- Brand new Kumho ASX tires, only about 400 miles on them.
- Brand new Brakes and pads on all four corners, as described above.
- New right side CV joint about a year ago (popping sound when you turn), left side was done before I bought the car.
- New downpipe (exhaust leak) about 2 years ago.
- Complete tune up including water pump, new valve cover gasket, oil pump gasket, new timing belt and alternator belt and pulleys, etc. (ALL done professionally by a very reputable shop.)
- New spark plugs (Bosch +4 platinum) and stock replacement spark plug wires less than 1k miles ago.
- Changed oil every 2500-3000 miles, always. No missed changes ever.

Might be forgetting some small things, but thats about it.

THE BAD-
The only bad things that I can think of with this car is the body, which isnt perfect. There are small dents on the passenger fender, and drivers door, along with several imperfections that all occured when the previous owner lent the car to his daughter to drive to New York. Unfortunately, like many cars parked in the city, it left with a few dings on an otherwise beautifully kept car. frown.gif There is also some rust that exists, but isnt a very big issue and could be fixed cheaply. The clearcoat on the roof is slightly faded, but doesnt represent a serious problem.

Also, the odometer reads about 212,000 miles, which may scare some buyers, but the car was actually bought with 145,000 miles and upon registering the car found out the girl who renewed registration on the car last had told the DMV 185,000 miles instead of 145k. This was all fixed, because the odometer legally had to be set to its reading of 185k that the DMV said was correct, but upon close inspection there was NO TAMPERING with the original reading...just an unfortunate miscommunication. This means, however, the car has only about 175k actual miles, but the odometer reads what the mileage is legally according to DMV records, so that is what it is. However, this also means cheaper insurance for the buyer.

THE BOTTOM LINE-
This car is excellent. Period.
Use it as a starting place as an inexpensive platform for a 3SGTE and beautuful bodywork, or as a dead reliable second Celica to have or to drive everyday and not worry about anything going wrong. I've absolutely loved owning this car, and hope that my next car is half as reliable as this car has been to me.

I'm located in Northwest New Jersey, and would be more than willing to work with anyone interested. I'm looking to get around $3300 for the car with the audio equipment installed, seeing as how I put over a thousand into it. However, I could leave just the headunit and certain components to reduce the price, however this car IS NOT worth anything less than about 3 grand. The pictures below will show you.

Here's some pics- IM me if you want specific shots.

Feel free to contact me via PM or E-mail if I missed anything. Or if you would like to talk to me in person about it we could set up an AIM session or I'll IM my phone number to you. Thank You.
