Well guys, I finally did it. The GT-2 will be gone next week, just waiting for the truck to pick it up. To those of you who said I couldn't sell it for near what I wanted...HA! WRONG AGAIN! LoL...anyway, I'd just like to thank everyone for their support for the past couple years. I've been proud and honored to be a member of the 6th gen community. I may be on here time to time, but still few and far between. I hope you all reach your goals for where you want your Celicas to be. I know I got near mine. The new owner may become a member soon, so hopefully you'd all show him the same respect and kindness that you've shown me. Thanks everyone...God speed!

That swap really paid off. I didn't think you would actually get that much out of it.What kind o vehicleare you going to get now?
Aw, I wish Tim would have gotten it. *sigh*
But wow, I'm sure the new owner will very much enjoy it.
YoungSurvival.Org-Celica traded for.. 350z.. traded for Mazda5.. soccer mom!
see you later dude and congrats for selling the car...
Thanks guys! You'll all be pleased to know I stayed with Toyota. I wouldn't have it any other way. I got myself a black, 1998 Lexus SC 300. So swapping the Celica, DEFINITELY paid off. As for a slow, grandpa car...would you believe if I told you that my swapped Celica would have stomped on my new SC? After it's gone, I now realize that swapping a 3SGTE motor is a great and cost efficient way to get power. 225hp turbo vs 225 hp NA is a HUGE difference. I'll get you guys some pictures of the new ride soon.
good job on getting a SC300. love those cars, and congrats on seliing the celi >

Thanks u also share with us a clear good (Even the best) Celica here.
Hope u can also find what u want and enjoy in ur SC300!!
Yep, unfortunately it is an auto. But manuals are VERY rare. Especially in the 97+ years. Everyone here is so kind, I only hope the SC guys are the same (doubt it). Hehe....pictures coming soon, so check back!

Big wheels slow cars down. Also, 20s are typically on cars to show how much money you have, or try to be "fly". I just simply think 20s on any cars is ugly. SUV's, thats another story.

It's a Lexus, it's a symbol of luxury. And yes, 19" chromes are in the future of this car for sure. Nothing ghetto, as it should be within the style lines of the Celica. Don't know if I'll have as much fun with this as my old swapped Celi, but I can try. I plan on staying very stock with this. All out of money now...hehe. Thanks for your support as always everyone!
yea... you have me seriously thinking about getting one... how is your gas mileage?
