2000 Toyota Celica GT review from North America
"A really nice, fun car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Zero problems.
General comments?
I've had four other Celicas and, yes, this one is lighter and made a bit less expensively built. But it's the most fun so far! It's a pleasure to sit in, with everything so close and within easy reach. The seats are very comfortable, but I'm 55 and a very long trip is a little tough on my back. The 5-speed is a dream to shift, and the steering is nice and tight. The stereo sounds great, especially with the addition of a small amp and subwoofer box in the trunk. Everyone says the rear seats are a tad uncomfortable, but, hey, I sit up front!
