1990 Toyota Celica ST sedan review from North America
"Miss it a lot"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I ran this through a huge puddle during a flood and waterlocked the motor. I replaced the motor with a used one. Had nothing to do with the quality of the car, except that air intake could be higher. Never had to do any other repairs to the vehicle.
General comments?
I really miss this car. It was very nice looking, sporty. Fun to drive. Never, ever let me down. Sold it because I needed the money, regretted it ever since. I've had numerous hondas and toyotas, and all have been champs except a 90 tercel, that's still running, but developed quite a few problems over the years.
