  • Got Lift? - 2002 Toyota Celica
    By -

    Wow, I love my 2002 Celica GTS! The sound of the engine and exhaust is music to my ears. Talk about driver/road interfacing, this car is amazing. Even for the automatic (sport shifters on the wheel), the power is pretty good. But the handling and control is its gem. I hit lift all the time, when I really need it. Unlike some V6/8s which use gas all the time, you can get good mpg if you drive it lightly, but if you feel a little wild and open her up, your mpg will degrade. The car is very sytlish and is unique. The GTS trim is rare, and the leather seats give the car a more lux appearance. I love the wheels of the GTS too! This is a great car!

    This car is a blast to own. Loved it the first time I layed eyes on it, and even when I road it. Very responsive at high rpms but can also quiet and smooth at low.

    I fell in love with the car before I even sat in one to test drive it. I did online research about every aspect of this car. I still went in to the dealership with an open mind. This car... WOW!

  • Great car and fun to drive - 2002 Toyota Celica
    By -

    I have to say I was hesitant about buying this car. I liked the look of the car but the size worried me a bit. I am so glad I bought it. It has been reliable and really fun to drive. It is small and at times, I have had to sit in the back seat and I was cramped. However, I rarely do that. I dont care, the performance, gas mileage, the look, etc. make it well worth it. I love my car.

  • They Need To Continue Making This Car!! - 2002 Toyota Celica
    By -

    This car has been my dream car since high school and I finally got one for myself and I wouldnt trade it for the world. I absolutely love the sleekness of its body, its so sharp around turns, it really hugs the curves, it feels like driving a little racecar except its really not that fast, but it sure looks like it is!! Its a beautiful car and I would recommend it to everyone, its so dependable, I have never had a problem with it. Ive had it for about a year and a half and I bought it used, but certified, and it has never been in the shop for anything but inspection and oil changes. I love it!!

  • 2 Sweet Celica GT-S - 2002 Toyota Celica

    The car is sweet, sexy, cool. Acceleration and handling is awesome in the GT-S trim. The VVTL-I is unmatched at 180hp from a 1.8L motor - truly impressive.

  • Unique racy looks, easy to own! - 2002 Toyota Celica
    By -

    Bought it 6 yrs old with 40,000 miles, Toyota certified used. Has been totally reliable, and I get 35-37 mpg, driving mostly highway miles. I love the handling and steering - it feels very nimble, light and capable. The styling is unique and my Celica gets lots of looks and comments. Adequate power, firm but comfortable ride. Really everything you expect from a sports hatchback.
