i just bought mine with 143k on it. the older woman that drove it kept it in the garage and changed oil every 3k miles, so i hope i get to keep her for a long ass time.
mine has 161k and it has major problems.. i am spending like 1k on fixing it, and it sucks cause i only paid 3k for the whole car...
oh well, it least it looks nice, right?

Bought my 94 GT with about 145k on the clock about 3 years ago....now I have about 170k miles on it. Spent about $900 last year getting the leak fixed, as well as a good tune up, and replaced an axle because the CV joint was bad a few years ago. And thats it.
Now, I just change the oil regularly, and drive back and forth to college everyday and not a single problem since.

133k Still runs well, although I don't drive it everyday so it's hard for me to know for sure. Eh, still runs fine with exception to the school messing it up once but that wasn't the car's fault.

I think I've got the record. I've got a 1994 GT Hatchback with 247,000 miles on it. This is what I've had to replace so far:
Timing belt and water pump every 60,000 (just preventative maintenance)
Starter motor and solenoid (failed about 20 k miles ago)
both axle seals on the manual tranny (80 dollars each. one 10 k ago, and the other 2 weeks ago)
Left front wheel bearing and hub (2 weeks ago)
radiator (plastic reservoir on top started to crack due to aging plastic)
Stock air intake hose (cracked about 10k ago)
new clutch at 184k
I think that's it. I change the oil every 3k and let the car warm up for at least 2 minutes before driving it in the morning, and it's still going strong. Most people do more maintenance than what I listed on a car with one quarter of the number of miles I've got on mine, so you've got no worries.

awesome!! the 6th gen celica sounds like a tank
WOW Im suprised to see so many people with high miles on them.
the 6gen celica has one of the higest mechanical reliability ratings out of any existanting car. so it usually gets a 10/10 for reliability over 4 years
dont see to many cars today or in the past that have that.

mines just about to 142,000miles
