Technically, they never imported any "GT-Fours" into the US. They only imported "All-Tracs" into the US from 1988 - 1993. 4th and 5th gen units.
I have a 1990 All-Trac.

there were never any 6th gen ST205 GT-Fours imported into North America to be sold from 94-99 - this includes Canada, USA & Mexico.

the only GT-Fours which were known as Alltracs that were imported & sold in the North America were the 4th gen from 88-89 and 5th gen from 90-93.

however, there are a handful of real deal ST205's here in the US now, whether they are legally registered or not is another matter entirely.

lol! thanks zero!
technically, it's goddess

I drive past atleast 1 GT-Four every day, and maybe 4 other SS-III's and probably 30 SS-I and SS-II , very rarely see the NZ new 2.2 litre GS model around though...

Yeah i saw an absolutely mint white gt-four (outside the district court, lawl) in wellington yesterday. Had 18" BBS wheels and it was so clean and sex. I contemplated swapping the plates with mine (white but no gt-fourness) and seeing if they'd notice

NZ ftw

And speaking of the NZ new... . Dunno if this is the 2.2 or the 1.8 but it was out my window so I thought a picture was in order:

I don't understand what you mean about the front end if it was swapped how does that explain the rear end with the gt-4 spoiler. GT-4 was printed on the side post of the spoiler.

Spoiler swap?

^ exactly - its just a simple body conversion.
just b/c it says GT-Four on it doesn't mean it's a real ST205 GT-Four - looks can be deceiving

Re-read my post and please tell me where I in any way said that that 7th gen was a gt4.

Admittedly I misunderstood what he was referring to as "GS" (I beleive he meant the 6th Gen GS - which I've seen like one of ever, crazy new zealand rebranding - whereas I thought the GS was a trim level of the 7th gen) but I sure as heck wasn't calling a 7th gen a gt4...

PS: Sounded like I was being grumpy. Much love to all, none of that grumpy stuff here

One more quick question if the front end was swapped would their be a small amber colored light on the fender near the side view mirrors?

could've swapped the fenders too man. lets put it this way, you say it was left hand drive? that means that it's not a gt4 unless doGGy got his hands on it. all gt-4 6gens are right hand drive. everything that you saw was just body part swaps. the little sidemarkers just means that he did a fender swap or modified it to blank out the usdm sidemarker and created the jdm one.

The only way I would be convinced that it was a genuine gt4 was that ST205 was stamped on the firewall behind the IM

stetsonaw, are you sure all ST205's are RHD?
i swear i've seen LHD ST205's from Germany & other European countries before.
not trying to argue here just always like to learn more fun celica facts.

brk34, it's not hard to put sidemarkers on a fender - drill the hole & wire it up.
calijeff is right, unless the firewall is stamped with ST205 it's just a body conversion.

yeah there are some LHD st205's out there but i am not sure if there is any WRC 6th gen gt-4s out there. but there might be. And i am sure there has been real 6th gen gt-4s imported years ago! seen one when i was working for toyota's warehouse way back in 1999 its was brought over for a show in California so i guess "technically" toyota did import some just had 2 take them back once the 3 (over how ever many months it is) temp bond was is up.

yes there are LHD ST205s
yes there are WRC ST205s

bring it over and sending it back doesn't = importing in the context discussed so no count.

yes there are at least 2 ST205s in the country.

well importing it, and importing it for sale are to different things. I am just saying there have been 6th gen gt-4s over the in states b4 plenty of time.
