I had reservations about buying a used car from a dealership. After test drive I made the gut decision that the car felt solid. Dealer was open about car history, It had been purchased at an auction in So. California and had no sinister baggage (i.e. it had never been totaled). I've been happier than I even expected. I've never spent a dime on anything except routine maintenance-and that has been low. This car, like every Toyota I have owned is so dependable that it has developed a personality. I have never named it and I don't baby-talk to it, but I have patted the dash-board once or twice.

Very solid car with great suspension and turning capability. Mine is the 2.2 litre which is great on the highway. The front seats are comfortable- and the rear is there just in case, but lets face it, this is more of a car for one or two people. The exterior design is terrific. One issue- the side of the driver seat wears because of design and it would be good for Toyota to address this problem, although it is repairable by an upholsterer. I live in Canada where no Celica Convertibles were brought in by the dealerships so I travelled to Texas to get her. Overall-a great car........ now where did I put my snoopy leather cap, goggles and white scarf.............. t
Best car I ever had.

The only thing I have done to this car since new (purchaced with 40 miles on OD) has been to change oil regularly, keep it clean, replace the tires (2x) and add fogg lights. I'm still on the original brakes (more than 1/2 life still left.) My milage has been all highway, and the car has only seen 2 winters, the first year I had it and this on (2003-2004). I have kept the car garaged since day one. Best car I ever had. Peepy, reliable.
'95 Celica GT Hatch Still Gets 26-30mpg

At 213,000, I still have the original transmission in my 95 Toyota Celica GT Hatchback in Baltic Blue. She has a 2.2 liter 16 valve engine and I just now replaced the radiator. I have always used premium unleaded. Mileage increased 5mpg upon moving from CO at 6K feet to near sea level in OR. The hatch is great; fold down the back seat and I can carry a bicycle or other large items in the car. I plan on remodeling the outside very soon, and replacing engine parts as needed, to keep her as long as I can, hopefully to enter her in shows when she is old enough! She is smooth, accelerates nicely, gets out of the way of reckless drivers quickly. Be careful: "Think" to turn right, and she does!
