Celica: the little engine that could.
I own a 2000 Toyota Celica gt. I bought it in April from an individual in craigslist. As a daily driver, it is incredibly fun to drive! It is an older car, so you'll have to make sure that the engine is in pristine condition. The only problem that I can think of is that it drinks oil like a madman.

Smooth, Sleek, and Spacey
This car is about to hit 200,000 miles and I haven't had a problem with it! Reasonably fast and very smooth to drive. I love the moon door and the sleek look of the car. All in all a very good vehicle. I wish they still made them. The wheel can be a bit squirrely when you hit bumps and such but the shocks are good. Very spacey as well.

Small sports car that's great for gas mileage.
I adore my Celica. I like that it's a small car so therefore it's really good on gas.I do not have many complaints about my car except that the car is very low to the ground and I wish the back seats were not bucket seats. Maintenance is also very easy with this car. Take care of your car and your car will take care of you.

Reliable to take you anywhere in a jiffy
Depending on the person this car couple be too small. It's a sports car so it's designed with only two doors. Downside to it is that it is only front wheel drive which is at least good to drive in the snow. Car is super low so you may have to be careful for curbs and bumps. What's great about the car is the engine, speed, and leather seats.

My Little Cherry Red Celica
The Toyota Celica is so reliable and doesn't give me as much problems as the other vehicles that I've owned in the past. It's good in size. That's if you're into small cars. It's very unique as well. I like how you reverse by putting it first gear. I love it!

Wishing for changeable fuel filter.
Car has not ever had major issues. Although engine burns oil with higher mileage. The only fuel filter in on the fuel pump. It would be great if it had an on line one so it could be changed easily. With lower miles car has great performance though, a little tlc is required with higher mileage.

It is a very reliable car that will not let you down as it has many safety features
Everything runs fine, she is very reliable and there is a lot of customization I have put into the car. Also, the appearance itself appeals very much to me

Despite the high mileage there have been no major repairs needed until recently.
A very reliable car that has required very few repairs. It is sporty looking, efficient on gas, and has all the standard options. Unfortunately it is over 18 years old with very high mileage and needs a paint job.
