You know you own a Celica when... - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #84513 446 posts Started by richee3
when you see a 2-post spoiler celica and say to yourself that's a 94-95.

when you point out every 6gc you see and tell your wife, i have a car like that


things happen for a reason.
when you know the celica's year and model (GT, ST) and if it is a hatch or a coupe or a convertible just by looking at the front of the car. cwm13.gif you know it all too well

I'll be honest, the only thing I can tell by looking at the front end of one is if it's a 94-95 or a 96-99. How would you tell GT vs ST by the front? I look for wheels, ride height, rear caliper and hatch/trunk label lol. Most of the 6gc's around here are rotboxes that are neglected. I think I'm going to start a thread to show how sad it is up here.

-You know your chassis code by heart.
-''St204'' and ''St205'' is absolutly not the same thing to you.
-You would drool over a 6gc that passes by, even if it's all rot out.



All of these, lol.

So True. I put mine between the seat and the door, with the seatbelt to keep it from rolling away.
When you do get a drink thats not in a bottle, you get the small.

You know you own a Celica when you get your car dyno'ed and the technician barely straps the car down causing it to nearly fly off the dyno, and you see the whites of the technicians eyes freaking out about what he just did...

When your significant other says they feel like they are the "other woman" and the car came first..

How about when you're casually watching a TV Show or a Movie and you see a split second glimpse of any gen Celica and lose your mind, "OMG! I can't believe a CELICA was in that!!! SWEEEEET!!"

KAOS|THE PROGRESSION - SLOW & STEADY|PARTING OUT- it ALL must go!|
You know you own a celica when you constantly find yourself dealing with people who say..."oh you drive a girls car" and you retort about telling them how bad-ass the celica was in its good ol' rally days, st205 etc.....

Walk away from conversation feeling like a big man, lol jkjkjk....

when you go to the end of the parking lot just to park the car alone to prevent someone hit your car with their doors, and when walk away you have to check the car every two steps just to make sure is ok.

when people say to you have to relax because no one is going to steal your car because is not worth it. (there is only a bunch of 6g here, so it actually not worth to steal a this car, robbers prefer Hyundai's to steal)

I'm Richee3's wifey person and I don't post much but this makes me laugh. We met because I bought the car from him for $3500 and he's put over $10,000 into since then between motor swaps and GT4 front end and such.
I always give him a hard time about it lol

You know you own a celica when you love your car so much you sell it and marry the girl to get it back.

I call that a double win.

You know you own a Celica when only 1 out of 50 people know what it is after it has gt4 parts. And of the 49/50 that don't they are usually somewhat dissapointed to learn it's not a Supra.

I'm a big fan of the "you know you're too low when" threads that are on some of the other forums i frequent. Not many "too low" cars here though so that wouldn't work, lol. But they are funny. (Although, if it moves, there is no such thing as too low. tongue.gif)
