naw..7th gen has no potential...no engine to subsitute?..i'd stick with the sexy curves of the 6th gen.. 
even if it's a 7th gen gts...it's just as slow as our 6th gen...0-60 in 8 secs...why?

No way mate. Keep your 6gc.
The 7gc looks to square

Ok Gladys, lets play house, you be the door and I'll shut you.
ive said it once, ill say it again. totally pointless to ask opinions here. Misinformation and bias runs rampant.

if you can afford it and honestly think it will make you happier than your 6thGen then go for it. if you are asking people for their personal opinions they will be biased just like Akimbo said...its your money your car and your choice...do what's right for you. i'm sure you are capable of making an eduacted decision on which of the two will benefit you more
THE STUFFS FOR SALE!
yeah, do what you want. its your money. you can sell your car for say about 3k and spend 9k on a 7gc. or you can spend 6k fixing up your 6gc. with a 6k budget, the potential is limitless. unless there's something the 7gc can give you that your 6gc can't. your choice.
ss-iii splitters and 404 skirts areon. which means i need to update my sig.
test drive it...in the end its all about how you feel and how much money you can spend

6th generation looks cooler, and is more rare so that makes it cool
i considered getting a 03' GTS before, but i made a choice of my 6th gen and i love it. keep in mind that most of us here all love the 6th gen too! =P Which ever choice you make, im sure u will be driving a good car in the end. good luck man!

yeah, but the 6th gen is slow as **** without an engine swap or a turbo. don't get me wrong, i bought mine cause it looked cool.
but the 7th gen has some decent horsepower, although it lacks torque. it does have a huge aftermarket though, more so than our 6th gens could ever hope for.
i'd buy a 7th gen GT and toss a turbo on it in a heartbeat. you're looking at 3sgte numbers there, at the very least. some people even supercharge the GT-S, making obscene amounts of power, but it requires a lot of maintenance & tuning to get it right.
if you have a lot (a LOT) of money to throw around, get a 7th gen, otherwise stick with the 6th and consider an engine swap or a turbo.

lol. Gains from a stock internals turboed 2zz would be minimal. They're arent meant to be turboed. Thats why TRD makes a supercharger for them, not a turbocharger.

edit: oh, and TRD makes a S/C for the Matrix, not the Celica. It won't fit. Only blitz and greddy make a charger for the GT-S.

no problem, i'm here to help!
thanks for all the replys im gonna think about this one because the thing is before i got a celica only car i ever wanted was a 7th gen celi buut my parents got me my 6th gen now im haveing a hard time deciding if i want to let go lol im gonna give it some thought
if it was a strait up tarade id say gor for it...but im surprised at how fasdt they have gone down in value...i think if you wait a bit longer you will beable to get one cheaper that that..i too was cotmplating on trading in my car for a gts but i then thought...why in the hell do i want car payments...i mean if you wreak it you still have to pay for it and then you will be stuck no car and a payment or one car and 2 payments...its just an unbiased opinion from me cuz i was once in your delima..although 180 horsees sounded good..so i just bought all the thing to turbo my car...and now im happy..

Thats the way i like to look at it to. My car is paid for. NO PAYMENTS! That means you can put a lot of money towards the celi if you wanted to. And another issuse with a newer car would be insurance.

Either way, you cant really go wrong.......

i was told by many 7th gen that if you turbo than you have to run it at really low boostso you will not get that much power out of a turbo.
i am preferable towards the 6th gen but it is your money.
