I couldn't pass up the opportunity for a newer car with lower miles.

Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in2grfe Swapped...Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within.@llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore.
Trying to think how many opportunities I passed up to keep my car - I would never EVER downgrade to a civic though rolleyes.gif

Think what you want, I honestly don't care.

And why do people say that I'll leave because I no longer have the car? I'm still staying here.

Wow, I was expecting something like a gt-4 conversion or something. Finally did it huh? Well, Im not gonna say anything bad as I know why you did it. You still gonna be putting the meets together?
It's great. It happens to be fed up with older car some times. smile.gif Nice one! wink.gif

PS: I went through a suby and now I got a Honda and I'm still around, lol!

Epic, epic, epic fail. I would take my Celica, as stock and boring as it is, over an even more boring Civic anyday.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that's a nice car to choose! I'd still much rather have a 6th gen celica, but if you are ready to move on, then you gotta do what you gotta do.

Those cars have alot of potential. Enjoy it!

"A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"QUOTE (njccmd2002 @ Oct 3, 2008 - 2:01 PM)i rather be a slow turtle in risk of extinction, than a fast locust, that you can see everywhere and need to be terminated.
Thanks for the comments (those that were positive).

I wanted to move on and like I said before, I got a newer car for free so I decided to take the jump.

Josh: I'll still be putting together the meets.
k20 swap or its a fail laugh.gif jk bro, just glad i got the rims off your hands before you sold it wink.gif

2015 Subaru WRX. World Rally Blue/Black2001 Honda S2000. Spa Yellow/Black
Did your car contract that flesh eating bacteria?! redface.gif
it is sad that you dont have a celi...maybe you could fix up the parts car (the suspension is ummm ballin?) but ya-180k 95 for 120k 01-id do it, well i dunno if i would but i dont drive nearly as much, plus we all know youll be coming back supra, celica, civic, mr2???? biggrin.gif

i mean considering it was straight up trade nice....no going from drive to neutral pretending like you still have a manual : )

but the best part...
VTEC GOES BBBBBRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!x a trillion
+ it is pretty muchly like boost...seriously
good luck man...dont get to crazy with it
hey well sad to hear the celicas gone not everyone can pick a 125,000 95 like i did but good luck with the civic.
you just wont be as stand outish now but glad you gotta a newer car and since hondas are reliable as well you seem to have gotten good trade. cant wait to see it at the next meet
If it was a free trade, I can't hate on you for that...but that's pretty high mileage for an 01.

Screw it, I can't fight it. You go from a clean, crisp white Celica with nice rims and everything else to something like that? The Civic has NO style compared to the Celica.

Makes me mad.gif mad.gif mad.gif
Thanks for your kind words, but the Civic I feel has just as much style. Plus the Celica was far from perfect.
I'm sure it wasn't perfect, you can't expect any 13 year old car to be, but I see Civics just about everywhere I go...they're known as economy grocery-getters, unless you have an Si. At least Celicas have some old-school sports car rep.

Sorry to blow your balls but celica's have the rep of being S L O W laugh.gif x999. They look cool and that's much about it!

... ok well they do have some other qualities..

I think I'd know what a slow Celica is...7A-FE coupled to an automatic, aka...MY car. laugh.gif

But they're at least somewhat cool...Civics are just so common. Plus you can say it backwards and it's the same thing, that's just weird.
The Civic is just about as fast as my other car was, except it starts to pull around 80+.

The main reason I did the trade was for aftermarket choice. There are MILLIONS of parts the the Civic, I am honestly sick of the 6GC having nothing good going for it.
I guess so...that's the ****ty thing about USDM. I'm thinking a JDM or European GT-4 tuned to around 350bhp and customized to my liking would probably be perfect. But, that's not possible here.
Well the Celica looks way better! Jk I am liking the car, still getting use to driving a 5 speed.
I don't get it...the point was to own a newer car with less miles, but with less personality and style?


Civics are so....generic. Not saying they are bad/good, just...really typical cars.

2002 SC430 (WC) - 19" SSR Comp-H, Daizen swaybars, Sparco Demons, JDM Soarer conversion, carbon fiber spoiler, Injen intake, front strut bar, drilled/slotted Brembo rotors1997 Celica ST (DD) - 17" ADR, ViS Zyclone CF hood, ViS CF hatch, K&N intake, Invader body kit
They may be generic but at least there are 3438564858495 ways to customize it. Most of the Celica's on here have the same stuff.
