2000 Toyota Celica review from North America
"Brains, looks and short of speed!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My two head lights got foggy.
Master air flow sensor went out.
Interior is really delicate and scratches easy.
The hatch cylinders are shot and sometimes work when it's hot out.
Carpet gets ruined quickly when not using floor mats, I had to change all of my carpet out and replaced it with a new one.
When I have it on fifth gear and on the freeway, it stays on the 3000rpm mark and doesn't lower like other manual cars do.
General comments?
It's fun to drive, and like everyone else is saying, it handles very well.
It starts going fast after 3000rpms.
