Finally got my new Celica! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #22991 13 posts Started by blu94gt
Ok so after being without a 6th gen for 3 years, I finally found one in the same day that I sold my Prelude! I got a 1994 GT liftback, 5-speed, 118,000 miles, mechanically flawless according to myself and my mechanic, but a little rough around the edges. The clearcoat is coming off of the roof, and the girl who had it just didn't keep it clean at all. but after spending about 3 straight days vacuuming, wiring, shampooing, wiping, cleaning, vacuuming again, waxing, polishing, it smells good inside and looks pretty dang good. I'll try to get some pics to throw on here in a couple days. It's kind of a grayish blue color, I don't know the code or the name.

Heck yes! The Celica is worlds better than the Prelude. Yes the Prelude had more HP at the flywheel, but the Celica is about 600 pounds lighter. Plus it's sexier, handles a lot better, and is just generally more fun to drive.

In the next few months I plan on getting an exhaust (probably Greddy), some sort of intake but I'm not sure if I'm going to make one or buy one, rims and tires, and maybe some fog/driving lights.

Yes the Lude was quite heavy. And all the Ludes I've seen are just cheap feeling. Like you drive it on a gravel road and everything rattles afterwards. They just don't seem to be quality cars in my opinion compared to the Toyota.
