Runs just fine, but just am done trying to get it to pass smog check because of a roll-over valve that keeps triggering engine light.

Car runs just fine. Really loved it, but issues are just piling up and I'd give it cheap to someone who will care for it or at least its parts.

Old Age Facts:
- 178K Miles
- Holes on the butt area of leather seats
- Right side mirror cover came off. Still have it in the car.
- First gear grinds.
- Timing belt squeaks when it's cold
- Front hood has minor dent from front fender bender
- Trunk door suspensions don't hold it up anymore
- CEL stays on because of Roll Over Valve. No idea what that is or what it does, but haven't had to address it in years.

Perks:
- 5 speed manual
- Custom short shifter
- S2000 Antenna
- White side front lights (replaced the orange)

I'm looking for $1200 but will go down especially if you need to make it pass smog check before exchanging of ownership. It has before, but you'd need to go to a mechanic who can turn off the light, run it for 20 miles or so, then perform the test before the light goes back on.

I'll keep dropping the price until I can get it sold since I'm trying to have this done before my smog check deadline. I'll go for $1000 if anyone is interested.

I sent you a PM with a bunch of other places to list it.

If you go that route, post the direct links here. Hopefully that can help you find a new buyer for it quicker laugh

Thanks! Do you think I could get this amount if I do a trade in with a dealership on a new car?

I'm all the way in Houston, TX and having it shipped would be a nightmare but it's literally a twin to the Celica I currently drive and I could easily make one of them pass inspection if I could get them both side by side in my driveway. Mine is throwing a code 0440 for incorrect Purge flow but everything else is good but the body is all dinged up like it was caught in a hail storm so I'd most likely keep yours and use parts from mine to straighten your's out. You still have it can we talk?
