1997 Toyota Celica ST Limited Edition 2dr Hatchback

This car is my first car, handed down to me from my dad who bought it fresh of the lot way back when. I just hit 250,000 miles and I still daily it. It wouldn't be safe for the interstate but I love taking it all around town. 100/10.

1997 Toyota Celica GT 2dr Hatchback

I have owned my 97 Celica GT for 15 years, had it up to 140 MPH, It shows its potential on windy mountain and canyon roads and performs like a jeep off-road, handles like a go cart and will not leave you stranded. Handles very well, very tight and the gear ration is nice, (standard transmission) I have tailgated an RX7 on the back roads with no difficulty, front wheel drive keeps it tight on corners while that guy was losing it. my only issues have been the radiator, A/C pump and the clutch master cylinder, mileage is now at 275k. still going strong. Oh and I hit a bear in this thing at 40 MPH, only broke a headlight bracket.
