I really dont understand the whole disliking 7th gens thing...
 The only thing i really dislike about them is that their interiors have way more cheap materials in them compared to our 6th gens... The only celicas I can truely say I hate on are the 2nd and 3rd gen liftbacks... Very dated... I'd kill for a nice 3rd gen coupe, though

4th gen and 5th gen and some of the All-Trac people seem to dislike the 6th gen for the same reason they dislike the 7th gen: a lot of people rice them out. At least that is the vibe I got.
 I used to have a similar oppinion. I started coming here though and realized that you guys are just like me, except with more money and nicer cars. lol. In all honesty, I used to hate the 7th gen Celica but I have grown to like it... long as its not a plain old GT with hubbies. I like seeing what people can do to cars, but there is a limit. Gives me ideas for the future... the very distant future, where money is no object, and my brain has fully developed... lol

I think that you guys are right when you suggest that one reason the 7th gen is not so liked is b/c of the NON-Rally-car thing.
But, I think that uncontiously we dont care for them b/c of how popular the 7th gen ones got. It is really nice to have a car (like the 6th gen) that people can truly appreciate when they see/own them since not every block has one parked on the street. And, of course the fact that they are just the best looking car ever. I have to admit, i dont "hate" the 7th gen, per say, but they really don't do anything for me either. But show me a 6th gen and my blood temp goes up from the excitment!!! I wish that I could shake myself of the love for this car. But I just can't! -------------------- |
