i think that is a lot...try talking it down a bit...if it was somewhere around 45-50K miles...it is fair, but just that alone with features isn' worth 10K...dealer usually buy from other for about 6k at lowest...look up kelly blue book and look into how long they have it on their lot...the longer they keep it there...they have to pay tax for it being on their lot...so try to talk it down a bit...my opinion!

Price is okay, but definitely buy it. It'll be the last of the best celica ever. I'm kind of looking for a '99 since I'd like my 94 to be a project car.

also depends on your credit. if it's bad then u pay more. if good u pay less. im talkin interest

i had bad credit because my uncle didn't pay up his car. i had a 9 percent interest rate so decided to have my dad sign the car for me...

otherwise my 99 celica gt would be in the 20K range. the car was on sale for 14K but taxes and etc it came to 18K

get the car

Check kelly blue book, kbb.com for price range in your zip and car condition. I checked for my area code, and the price for a 99 GT hatch in excellent condition was about $11,500.

I think its pretty fair...but remember, its a dealer, so you can negotiate. I bet you could get it for 9500 or less with some good haggling.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

I dont know how much celicas are worth over there, but
here in Australia, you'll be struggling hard to find a 99 ZR (GT equivalent)
at that price ($14,500 app).

I'd say its a go smile.gif buy it! biggrin.gif

Hahah after reading through this thread it makes me wonder if I got ripped off when buying my Celica. I paid 7 grand for a car with a rebuilt title on it. My car was T-boned a while back, and then for some reason a boat company bought it and fixed it up, and then sold it. I bought the car with 71k miles on it...

But on the plus side... It has THE cleanest runing engine I have ever seen, it runs as if nothing happened, the only problem from the accident is that the driver's door is a little screwed up, it doesnt really aline well with the back window... If you look at some pics of my car with the top up, look at the back window on the drivers side, something doesnt look even... Thats the only problem I could see with it.

I bought my 99 GT in 2004 for $11,500. It had 66k miles @ the time. Wait wait...it actually cost $13k but I had $1500 to put down on it.

Come to think of it I got it for $11k cause they took off $500 since I didnt like how the paint on the hood had a couple chips in it...

That's a little high. I paid 10,985 last summer for mine, and it only had 36k on it.

Wow! thanks for all the replys. I'm going to offer 8.5k if the car has still not sold. It's been sitting for awhile and the only thing that concerns me is it's a three owner car. Maybe thats why it's still sitting?
