Faults:

Radiator blew open at 126,000 miles and needed to be replaced. Engine was entirely rebuilt, clutch was replaced, and new battery installed just prior to my purchase.

This car is quick off the line despite the fact that it weighs nearly 3,000 pounds. It's real acceleration is mostly apparent when you're on the highway, though. If I have to pass someone, there is no car I've ever driven that I'd rather be behind the wheel of than my Celica. It's scary fast when the turbo kicks in on the road. I can go from 60 to 90 in a matter of seconds.

It handles like a race car- I can take corners at unbelievable speed and still not feel like I'm even close to pushing the envelope. I have to constantly hold back from going faster.

On the downside, the interior room is not good for someone tall like me (I'm 6'1"). I have to open the sunroof to get enough headroom because I hate tilting my seat back too far. I do get plenty of leg room, however, and I love the tilt steering wheel.

I bought the Car in June of 2007. I have been driving it ever since and I have never had any new problems with it.

By that I mean the only thing wrong with the car is that it has a rear main oil leak. It leaks about one quart every 700mi. So it is not that big of a deal. The car is still running strong. I live in upstate NY and I have a little trouble in the snow but if i slow down then everything is fine.

General Comments:

This is one of the best vehicles I've ever owned.

This car gets great gas mileage.

This car gets around great in the winter.

The clear coat of paint on the roof has started to peel, will have to re-spray.

General Comments:

This is a brilliant car.

May require a bit of maintenance, but is worth it with it's good looks, good performance and great handling.

There is something about this car that will compel you spend endless hours (and dollars) into maintaining and improving it. It may be an obsession, but I think that it is worth it!

This car is great value for money, and the sky is the limit when it comes to improving your GT-Four.
