The price varies somewhat depending on what region you're in. I looked high and low within a 500 mile radius of Portland, OR for a car like that, the closest I came was a 97 with I think like 150k on it for around 8k. (Turned out I just couldn't afford it anyway.)

I think 12k for a 99 with so few miles on it is not only a great deal, but a great find. Negotiate—EVERYTHING is negotiable! You can probably walk away with it for 10 and a half if you wave a little cash at them and finance it.

If you're buying it to mod though, I'd pass on it because it doesn't matter if it's 25k or 250k on the engine in that case.

Plus, wouldn't a '99 with 25k on it still be under the original warranty at least for another year? Sweet! Make sure you Carfax it to ensure the odometer hasn't been messed with. Check all the VINs.

well the years timeframe would probably kill the warranty.

i paid 4500 for 145k Limted Vert. And i believe i got good deal considering i drove 600 miles to get it. I snached it from tennesse

but u know wut girl... if he wants a 99 with few miles, honestly 12000 seems hi. Make sure to check Edmunds.com, and ebay motors, And kelly blue book.com as weell. u mite be able to find it for a better price round there.

Thanks for all the replies guys. The Celica color is silver and it's not my first choice but when buying used you don't get alot of options.

I paid a premium for my 97 GT with 32k on it several years ago, now has 89k, never regretted it. was actually thinking lately about looking for a low mile 99 as I still like the 6th gen better than anything else I've seen lately ...I'd grab it if I were you, there are so many little things that start happening with miles, suspension bushings, weatherstripping, body seals, hoses, belts, normal wear-and-tear etc, But do CarFax or something to be sure it's really only 25K.

I felt the EXACT same way when I got my Celica, I was so set on black but couldn't find one that I could afford or that was any good, and now I'm so glad I have silver because it still looks awesome and it doesn't show the dirt and dings nearly as much as a black car does!

BTW the pix of the car look awesome! Looks like a clean car, I'd snap it up if I were you!
