You sold your celica got a WRX, black if i remember correctly, then next thing i know you got your old celica back. Did you sell it to someone and buy it back from them, haha, i imagine you threw away some money somewhere down the line there.

Plus you get the feeling like you are sitting in a truck after sitting in a dropped celi. Also, the interior is cheap. Plastic everything, I know they did that to keep it light, but come on. It's 34k. Yeah, it's fast, and drives like a raped ape, but stick with the Celica.

I think the celica with the action package is the best looking car there is besides maybe the 200,000 dollar cars. Actually I like my car better than any car period because it is almost exactly how I like it. I care more about looks with a car than speed though.

Celica is a coupe and its sleek but slower. It depends what you really want, grocery getter that you can blast around with your friends and kids, or a cool ride just for you and your GF. If I had the money I'd own both.

The Celica is too much of a limited tuning platform even though it looks so good. plus the STi can confortably seat 4 people.
