1987 Toyota Celica GT review from North America
"Longest lasting car on the road if maintained properly"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Struts blew out at 110,000 miles.
Leaks oil regularly, always have to top it off.
Front skirt hard to keep in good condition.
Seats showing wear.
Rear side widows leaked water until I fixed it.
General comments?
The car starts EVERY time I turn the key.
It runs very smooth and idles quietly.
Because struts are blown the ride is a little jerky, but was great when they were OK.
Very quick little car.
Fantastic gas mileage. 420 miles to a tank!!
