So after ages of driving around the old Celica, I finally hit the 400,000 km (250,000 mi) mark with the original motor! Still pulling hard!
Do you think my car is worth anything? Can I get anything free? At least, I'm pretty sure I've got the most miles on this board. What amazes me the most is that everything (aside from the obvious, timing belt, water pump, clutch, brakes, tires, plugs, oil filter and air filter, headlight bulbs...) is the same as it was the day it was on the showroom floor. Respect Shaun!

I had (in the process of selling) a camry that hit 307,000 miles. It has the same motor, 5s-fe, as the celica does.
It still would be going except the transmission went in it so... |

some lady supposedly hit 1,000,000 miles on her celica. cant remember what year it was but it was a RWD celica and it all on original tranny and engine.
one of my dad's friends has an 85 celica GT with 300k miles all on original clutch tranny and engine. only basic maintainance was performed on the car. gotta love toyota other than the problems the first tundras had, i have never heard anything bad about toyota(not including lack of power in some of their vehicles) -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
