I went to 4 car lots, 3 of which had Toyota dealers. The GTS (especially 6-spd) is obviously VERY popular, because I could NOT find a single used GTS (of any type). There were only a few GT's. So anyhoo, not finding anything, I eventually went back to the first place I had gone, and ended up buying a new '04 GTS 6-spd!

Yeah, I tried Autotrader, but they didn't have anything that I really wanted that wasn't too far away (that I could make payments on). And, thank you!

Heheheh. Not knockin' the GT, I just didn't want one 'Cause if I did get one, well, I want the GTS, then I'd have a car, and want a different one. Easier to just get what you want the first time, yeah? That's kind of an odd sentence. Or it seemed like it to me anyways. And on another note, what mileage do people usually need to change the lift bolts (not waiting for them to almost break, but a safe mileage). Of course, I'm babying it right now, so not hitting lift really.

I don't know if lift bolts are a problem on 04 cars... I think those MIGHT have the new ones with the correct taper. Lucky is the resident expert, if he reads this. Anywho, congrats man

Ahh, I can't wait! And again, thank you thank you!  I was gonna pick up a few lift bolts while I was there (no dealers close by where I live, I bought it like 3 hours away) but the part shop was closed already (we'd spent all day looking for a used one. Left home at 6am, left the dealer with the new one after 5pm). But it's worth it. I hit lift once in the test drive, and I was sold Hmm. I still need to figure out how to work the alarm. Gonna wait 'til tomorow, since it's kinda late

You hit lift during the test drive? I took a corner at like 20MPH during mine to test the handling, and the guy freaked.

LOL! We were on the freeway, so I asked 'em if he minded me taking it up to 6k RPM. He was like, "Sure, go ahead." So I popped it into 3rd and took off It was raining a bit, so I slowed down just after shifting - didn't wanna kill anyone. Or soil myself. Ya know, he didn't even ask to see my license, now that I think about it...
