Celica Forums General Discussion General Celica value

i've been told that since the celica isn't being made anymore, dealerships aren't getting anymore in, that they are going to be rising in value, and i'm wondering if this is true. the dealerships around me are trying to buy them back and hold on to them for a while, and eventually sell them at a higher price than when i originally bought the car(mind you i bought it used for 14200). anyone with any info on this?

The discontinued Celica is a rumor. The new 2005 Celica is out. The dealers say that was a crazy rumor.

uh no...2005 is the last year they're making it. Check the toyota website under press releases.

yeah, there discontinued. i was talking to my buddy that works in the dealership and i kinda shed a tear listening to his response to my question "so whats the 2006 celi's gonna look like ya think?".

yeah buddy. you might want to brush up on your homework. 2005 is the last year, not 2004. Atleast thats what i heard last from the dealership.

not sure why they would do this its been going on 35 yrs strong, and is a beautiful and affordable car, you can get an 04 GT for about $18,100.

i heard it was becuz of the lack of interest from buyer..since it's so freaking expensive..26k for a 1.8L GTS 180hp..a lil high on the price tag..

Well because of the discontinuation i'm gonna drive my celica for about 2-3 yrs buy a new car and garage my celi and keep it till it becomes a classic.

The Celica will never become a classic and appreciate in value. Way too many made; and it's a front drive Toyota for Christ's sake, not a Ferrari!

^^ thank you.

the discontinuation means the celica will lose it's value more SLOWLY than if a new model were to come out. but it will continue to lose value.

think honda prelude, except a little less. (hondas keep their value longer than toyotas)

HOw much is a Talon or Laser worth these days?

always depreciating...
