Where's the love for Celicas?

They seem to have been missed out completely by every kind of car culture? Anyone here own one?
>>
Used to own 6th gen. Good car. Sold it for college funds

you have to be a manlet to fit comfortably, they're not called girls cars for no reason

Nothing really special. They're highly reliable if properly cared for and that's about it.

Okay guys it's time to stop confusing "manlet" with "not an overweight neckbeard"

The last generation made the mistake of going with overly aggressive styling with absolutely 0 guts to back it up. Making it a joke car.

FWD celicas are just the crap version of a supra compared to other toyotas.

When compared to other fwd sports coupes they are the crap version of an integra.

There is a reason nobody likes them and that's because they are crap.

Anon I promise its not a troll.

The story goes when I was very young my mother got in a head-on with another car, an El Camino. I was in the front seat when it happened and my mother was pregnant with my sister. Luckily we were more or less fine. Our car was totaled though.

I look back and just imagine what could have been. What a sweet car we could have had if it hadn't been wrecked.

Most likely the shitty fwd with the performance of an accord or else its an expensive good model that's been beat to death.
Either way they are ugly.

The Celica is one of the automotive world's greatest "what could have been" cars. Early generation ones were so well-loved by their owners and spawned a lot of early trust in Toyota as a brand. In the 90s the Celica was usurped by other Japanese brands in its segment and Toyota's non-committal attitude towards it kind of sealed its fate as an also-ran. The concept that the FT86 was not called a Celica was probably because of how lackluster the later Celicas were remembered,

My brother bought 3 Celicas for about $1000AUD, not sure what year exactly but I think they're from the 70s. There are enough parts to restore two of them but he hasn't done anything yet. Its been a few years so I doubt he'll ever get around to it.

It's not the best car for winter, l have one. Too light and too much power, you'll skid on hill starts.

Make sure your GT-S will not be a 2002 model! That year has a rev-limiter which makes the whole valve-lift useless.
