  Love it! - 2000 Toyota Celica
  By jessek1 - October 8 - 5:30 am

  I have wanted this car since high school (graduate of 03) and finally bought one in 2007. Had only 24k on it so practically new. I have lots of other drivers look my way. People always compliment that the style looks new, most people assume it is a new model car, not knowing production was stopped in 05. I will keep it until it rusts from under me!!! Despite the frigid Iowa weather last year, it started fairly easily before work. Needs more power, men especially will want to race me, only for me to act like I am receiving a phone call from someone right when it turns green. Tricky, tricky!

  Great car for a great price - 2000 Toyota Celica
  By Gardenia6441 - August 8 - 2:00 am

  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.

  LOVE my Celica!!! - 2000 Toyota Celica
  By bdnintendo - July 29 - 2:06 pm

  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!

  I wish I could Buy one new. - 2000 Toyota Celica
  By Specter - May 2 - 3:36 am

  I bought my dark blue 2000 Toyota celica brand new in 2000. I was lucky to find a promotional car with no sunroof. This is the only way my 6foot 5 inch frame would fit. I fit perfectly. Plenty of leg, head and shoulder room. One of the few modern Japanese small cars I can fit in. This car was completely trouble free for the first 80,000 miles. I just changed and flushed the fluids and replaced the stock tires every 50,000 miles. Replaced the breaks and spark plugs every 100,000 miles. At 200,000 miles I replaced the struts and the clutch. The only problem I have had has been a check engine light that came on at 80k. That light would come and go over the next 100k then never come on again.

  60000 miles and still running like new - 2000 Toyota Celica
  By macknannie - April 14 - 10:00 am

  This girl is 3 years old now with over 60,000 miles and still running as good as the day I bought her. She got some new tires and the spoiler needed tightened. A squeeky belt was replaced. Pretty good, considering I always used to dump my Fords at 50,000 miles because thats when they started costing an arm and leg to maintain. She still hugs the road, she still looks good, and she will be with me for another 3 years at least.

  A slice of life - 2000 Toyota Celica
  By Wanless - March 31 - 2:00 am

  The 7th gen Celica is certainly a welcome change from the previous model. Following the recent trend, new high-revving, powerful, yet efficient (excellent fuel economy!)engines have made this car a blast. My GT is pretty quick, but the Celicas selling point has never been its speed alone - its the handling! This car handles like a go cart! Whats great is that you get all of this with Toyotas typical reliability and quality attributes.

  What a great car! - 2000 Toyota Celica
  By Drew from Philly - February 5 - 10:00 am

  I traded in a new 99 Cougar for this car. And, oh, what a difference. The Celica is the first manual Ive owned (not driven though). Ive had the car now for almost 2 years and loved every minute of it. Real fun to drive, handles like a go-kart. The car also looks great! Ive added the TRD groud effects package (now called the Action Package). The interior is laid out like a cockpit. 30,000 miles now and no problems what-so-ever. Im even on the original brake pads. Great car, I would highly recomend it.
