    Ive had my Celica for 4 1/2 years and this is by far the best of the 5 cars Ive owned. Its really comfortable, even on long trips, holds TONS of stuff in the trunk, is sporty, good looking and reliable. Im at about 111,000 miles, and although Ive had to put some money into shocks, belts, etc. lately, its nothing that I didnt have to expect to do for a car of this age. Ive had 2 mechanics tell me that I should easily get to 250k miles if not more without major problems, and that in their opinion, this is one of the most reliable cars you can own. The ONLY car I would ever trade this in for is a newer Celica...Im planning on driving this baby til it turns to dust.

    My first brand new car and it has been all I expected. This is one car where the payments do not become a burden because you are having so much fun getting wherever you have to go. The aftermarket is good and getting better. Some available stuff: Custom exhaust, body kits (beyond "action package"), short shifters, headers.... well, everything but a turbo or surpercharger (but coming soon).

  • This is what a sport compact SHOULD BE!! - 2000 Toyota Celica

    I purchased this car with 60,000 miles. This car is truly amazing. I have a fully loaded GT-S in red and it is by far the best car I have owned (out of 6). The steering is tight and precise, the shifter engaged beautifully and the handling is amazing. It isnt the quickest car but it is ultra lightweight and when the VVTL-i kicks in at 6200 rpm the thing really comes alive. I am 5 11" and the car fits me like a glove. Hatchback is very useful and holds a lot of cargo with the rear seats down. Never a single problem since Ive owned it. This is the ultimate Sports Compact!

  • Great car for a great price - 2000 Toyota Celica
    By -

    I have had this vehicle for almost 4 years now, and I still enjoy it as much as the first day. Ive had one recurring problem....my car squeals after it has rained. Ive taken it to be worked on, and they can never seem to fix the problem. Ive had the tensioner replaced, pulleys, and belts. Also, the cruise control doesnt seemed to be calibrated correctly. Other than that, it was money well spent.

    My Celica currently has 135,000 miles on it and is running STRONG! I do have a bit of a lead foot, but its really hard not to with this car. It just makes you want to drive like a race car driver! It has unbelievable handling, awesome looks, and a one of a kind design! This car turns A LOT of heads! VERY reliable, gas efficient, and easy to fall in love with!
