I was driving to work today and I crashed my beautiful celica ST :( . I'm still working things out with the insurance company but i'm pretty sure they're going to total it. I loved my celica so much that i've decided i'll get another one, and maybe this time I can "upgrade" to the GT. I'm still not sure yet because i really enjoyed the fuel economy of the ST and i'll be using the car as my daily driver, so I want to know from you GT owners what kind of mileage are you getting under regular driving conditions? Also, do you think it's worth it to get the GT for a daily driver?

wow that sucks man, good to hear that you are ok A car can always be replaced. Whose fault was it? Hopefully not yours and that other guy will pay up

i get maybe 250 per tank city, 300 hwy

i only drive in the city and i got exactly 22 mpg. just like it said in the reviews.

the gt is just as good as the st.

gt gets good mileage, not as good as the st tho, but when u drive a gt, you dont have to floor it to get up to speed.

daily driver = yes.

weekend car = yes.

aw sorry to hear what happened, hope you get a new car soon. go GT although ST is bad either. anything you get will be good!

just get a VW... J/K, actually the GT i got is damn good on gas! maybe I just think so coz my GTI isn't that great on gas... anyways I can't really say an actual MPG rating but I can drive to Torrance - Home (~40miles one way) monday through friday on 1 tank of gas

hey, i live in torrance. anywho... sorry to hear about your car. good luck getting a new one. any parts that can be salvaged from your st?

with my gt, just highway, i get about 350 miles, approximately 32mpg.... it's pretty damn good right now! in the winter is a different story, but you don't get winter like we do, so no worries

my gt gets like 22-ish if I do only city driving and am feeling rev-happy. and with combined city/highway driving I usually fill up (with 11 or 12 gallons) at about 325 miles, which is like 28 mpg-ish. and it's got a 15-gallon tank (or somewhere around there) so I could probably hit 425-435 before being completely empty, I just usually fill up right when the fuel light comes on.

GT is great

I drive 80 miles highway daily on the PA turnpike anywhere from 80-100 MPH. And I still get 27 Mpg - consistently every tank. I did notice a nice boost in MPG after adding an intake and changing the 2" exhaust to 3" with a passthrough muffler. Although it's a lot louder than it used to be. I can't sneak into the neighborhood anymore

Firstly, sorry to hear about your celica – but real glad you’re a-o-k!

City with A/C blowing, I usually get 21-23 mpg, and usually get 275 miles to a tank (filling once light comes on). If I were you, I’d go with a GT. It is not like it is going to be a super powerful car that will drain your gas as fast as you put it in...if you know what I’m saying. So, I’d go for the little* faster GT b/c it is more fun. And of course, a manual!

My GT gets around 26-27 on mostly highway driving. Sometimes I go rev-happy though. ;]
