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!
Love my car
This car is more fun that a motor cycle. perfectly ballanced - plenty of power - it is the perfect sports car - still gets the attention of every kid on the block.
Excellent Car for a 10yr old car
Drives like a dream. Excellent cornering ability and literally hugs the road. Suspension and ride are awesome. Gas mileage is 32mpg. Interior and seating is a little crammed.
Love the Car!!
My wife brought this car into the marriage and I absolutely love it. Gets awesome gas mileage and handles great. The only problem I have is that it is very hard to shift if you have both cup holders filled. This is also a CA car so we had to take the AM thing out from the distributor cap as it shorted out and killed the car instantly. No maintenance problems besides this.
