    Very nice choice, I like that car style.



    That sounds right, 6 years old, ~10K miles per year.

    Man, you said lift, and I thought you'd moved up to something with some ground clearance. :D

    Yes I was reading the title like Dam another Tundra too:) but when the title of the thread read's LIfted and he showed pictures of His New Celica I knew it wasn't a truck..
    Nice Celica those are very sweet to have I'm seen a few at Tail of the Dragon and they handle those curves very well and kept up with the Sport bikers

    Nice choice! Glad to see that you stayed with Toyota.

    You got much of the good:
    - Celicas have Corolla like reliability, they just keep running if you treat and maintain them well
    - sport tuned from the factory
    - HUGE aftermarket support

    While minimizing the bad:
    - filling up with premium all the time can be a pain, quality of the gas varys quite a bit - gas mileage goes down FAST if you fit lift all the time (very addictive, so mileage will suck alot at first :D)
    - handling limit is very high (easy to drive the car above your abilities - so be careful)
    - since it is sport tuned from the beginning - you will really need to step up the quality of parts to see a big difference in performance (ie, put sport springs, struts, plus sized wheels on a Corolla - make for a night and day difference, put the same stuff in the Celica - make a difference, but not quite the diffence that it had on the Corolla).

    Good luck and go easy on the shifting until you get used to the gates.
