Bought my celi about 3 years ago. It had done 136000 km. There was another celi in shop there which was much cheaper, but it was an st with 116bhp. Mine is the gt with 175bhp. It also has the fenomenal super strut suspension, so the choice was not too difficult!!! I paid 10000 euro's for it(about $9000)

My dad bought the celica in 94 he wanted a nice little sport car because we were leaving the states to move to greece
i loved that car the minute i laid my eyes on her and the day i turned 18 he came in my room threw me the keys and told me '' it's your's but if you break it i'll kick you out of my house''

the thing that pissed me of when my mom told me that my dad was looking at the 94 supra and she told him that it was to fast for a family man

Well first my 90' supra turned wheels up on me (bhg), so for a while I was driving a 90' Mazda 626. My 97' celica was originally my mothers and she also loves celicas. She called me one day and mentioned she wanted to trade in the car for a 7th gen. I told her I wanted the 6th gen so we worked it out and I payed mom what the dealership was going to give her on trade in. $1500 later I own my 6th gen (and mom later got her 01' silver 7th gen gt)

Got my 99 GT because I needed an ecinomical daily driver. My 89 ST celica had just gone tits up at 190K miles, so I figured, heck, why not another Celi, and my wife and I both liked how the 6GC looked. After a month of searching, finally found the 99 on eBay for buy it now for $7500 with 114K miles back in early July 2005. It's got 124K miles now and just ticking through them like there's no tomorrow.

well i liked how the celi looks and i didn't want a honda. bought my ST with 80k miles for $3200 and was happy driving it till my friend crashed it... so i bought this GT for $4000 and have changed it to how it looks this very day.

Since I moved to Washington I've been riding a motorcycle for road trips up to Vancouver to see my Granddad. The winters here aren't nearly as good for riding as where I moved from, Kentucky, so I decided I should get a car for this winter. I've always liked the 6th generation Celicas, I didn't want a family car. I narrowed it down to black and it had to be a GT.

I finally found one last fall with 140,000 for $4700. I had been looking for about six months before mine came up on Auto trader. I wasn't really looking for all the options mine came with but I really like the leather and 8 speaker stereo. The sunroof is nice too.

Two days after I bought it my Granddad decided to give up his drivers license and sell his car. Just to think that I could have ended up with an '88 Thunderbird makes me shudder.

I got mine originally because of the great styling and awesome gas mileage. I bought her over 3 years ago, and with 103K for $6000. She was in perfect shape when I got her, no door dings, nothing. The only problem I remember is one cigarette burn on the rear seat, but besides that, you can't tell it had been smoked in before I had it. No intentions of selling, and she still runs perfect.

i looked for a 6gc for the longest time, never could find one... dad raised me on toyotas, he had a camry, mom had a lexus, so i got a camry, then when that finally conked out on me, i got a 5th gen, and when i dinged that up and didnt feel safe driving it anywhere anymore, i searched months for a 6gc, finally found one 2 hours from my house, paid 8000, it was a 94 gt 60K miles, everything was new, clutch was just replaced, i loved that car so much :-(

I was tired of my automatic 1986 Monte Carlo and wanted a 5 speed car that was sporty that I could modify... I had several on my list... but when I found this... I got it that day :-) I paid 7000 with 109,000 miles. Spotless engine and super clean interior... Car has had no problems until the day after christmas. (3 years)

I was in the market for a celica all along. I got hooked on them when looking around for my first car. I was looking for a 7th gen, but I went to carmax and they had a 6th gen with 36k miles on it for 11 G's. Shipped it to me for $150, which was applied to the purchase price, and the rest is history. All leather interior, sunroof, CD player, I love this car.

ten years ago I was 21 and loved rally racing and the celica GT-FOUR but TOYOTA never imported to US so i just forgot about ... bought a loaded yellow GT in 01 and dreamed of a GT-FOUR again .. i sold the celica the same year and in 04' friend who imported jdm parts as a side business had a white 95 st205 he didn't want due to color .. well without even thinking a nano second i bought car ..

I got my first one my junior year of high school (2001-2002), it was a 94 ST with 43,000 miles on it, picked it up for $7200. Loved the looks, the way it drove, everything about it. A year and 15,000 miles later it was hit by a drunk driver (I was stopped at a red light, he hit us from behind doin like 60, pushed us out in the intersection, etc. Car was GONE). Got about $9000 from insurance and couldn't find another Celica, so I bought a Mustang. Sold the Mustang, bought a Prelude in summer 2003, hated it, sold it in March of 2005 and just by luck found my Celica within the same day.

1994 GT, bought with 117,000 miles for $4300. Some say the price was high, some say it was low, either way I love the car and think it was a great buy.

Celicas are one of the few cars I've driven that I feel "in tune" with, like I know exactly what the car is doing, going to do, where it's going, etc. It's that kind of driving experience that has kept me hooked
