Celica

  • The TOYOTA CELICA is an underappreciated ’90s hot hatch

    I’ll be real with you. I have no idea who this girl is, and this video is barely about the 6G Toyota Celica GT at all. And really, maybe it deserved to be forgotten in the US: we never got the good one. Yeah, we got the 4g and 5g All-Tracs, about 4,000 total across both generations, but we never got a single all wheel drive, 3S-GTE powered 6G Celica GT-Four. Toyota completely blew us off.

    Anyway, this video is actually a Readers’ Rides compilation. We asked our viewers (and readers) to send in their cars, they did, and this is the end result. We’ll do more in the near future. Want to send yours in? Click the video, find the email address, and hit us up. Thank you!

  • The Bring A Trailer Guessing Game: Nice Price or No Dice #4

    Today, it’s another round of our Bring A Trailer auction guessing game, which, due to PC concerns, we refer to in print only as Nice Price or No Dice. No cease and desist from Jalopnik yet, so we must still not be big enough. Fingers crossed their legal team attacks us soon.

    In this one, we check out a Honda CRX Si, a Mark 2 Toyota Celica Supra, a 1970 Dodge Charger which leads to a great deal of debate, a low mileage, rear wheel drive variant Toyota 4Runner, and a top-trim Honda Element.

  • Facebook Find: 1978 RA40 Toyota Celica

    Now here’s one you don’t see every day. Forget the 240SX, forget the Miata, forget the MR2. There’s a safe bet you’re the only one rolling up to Cars & Coffee in a 2G Celica coupe like this. Find your own using the Collector Car Feed used car listing aggregator!

    Described as a “true barn find”, the owner states this vehicle was bone stock on acquisition, but has since added a laundry list of tasteful upgrades, mainly targeting the suspension and drivability.

    How many cars do you see with SIX horn buttons? What is even going on with this steering wheel?

    The interior is in beautiful original condition, but the owner states the paint job is about 25 years old and a “ten footer”; looks great in pictures, though. We suspect the flares may be a shortcut to covering up some rust, but it sure is a killer look.

    Listed for $7800, this looks like a fantastic deal if the 2G Celica does it for you. You won’t win any races, but you’ll be snapping necks all over town.
