2000 Toyota Celica GT review from North America
"It's a smokin hot sweet car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My Celica hasn't had any major machanical problems. The most that I have had to do with it was get new brakes. I have chosen to do additional work on it. I added crank and alternator light weight pulleys, a header, cat back exhaust, short ram intake, and sway bars. It handles great and is pretty quick too. I don't understand when people say the GT-S is better; I have raced them and I beat them. And I haven't had any motor work done. The only thing I like better about the gt-s are the 4 wheel disc brakes. Otherwise, the only thing that needs to be taken care of is my passenger side headlight lens, as it has some condensation in it.
General comments?
Celica is a great car, because if you take care of it then it will take care of you.
