Re: questions on celica

what model? for the most part they are very good cars. mine has 170k milesd and all i had to fix was the alternator. yes they get good gas mileage i think the 90-99 gt and gts gets 28mpg as well as the 00-05 gts. and the 00-05 gt gets like 33 and it is my 1st car.

Re: questions on celica

`Yes` to all unless you get a GT4/all-trac which most likely you wont for your first car (lucky you if you do) appart from the problems bit, after a year of ownership, no problems so far.

Bloody hell, 17 and an all-trac already, when i was 17 i had a Peugeot 205 diesel that did 0-60 in about a week, thats if it ever made it to 60. I had to wait till I was 30 to get an all-trac, but hey, it was worth the wait.
Catalitic converter comes off soon, new SS downpipe, new induction system, and a carbon fibre air ducting for the 5 radiators gets ordered today. Eventual targetted BHP will be 400. Hmmmmmmm cant wait.

Re: questions on celica

No, there is no such thing as a 4wd 206. They did do a balls out 4WD turbo 205 called the T16 that was used in the group B rally days with about 500bhp or there abouts. but those days are gone. just the boring old 206 FWD Gti`s with 180 BHP that are niceish cars but certainly not what the old 205 Gti`s were.

yea... I didn't think they had one either. You think they would have with their WRC invlovement. They were doing pretty well in the manufacturer points. At least they were last year.
