In general the Celica was intended to be midsize economical that had the styling of far more expensive cars, ut without the reliability issue and most importantly the price those car demanded.

All of which are on the car and in great condition! As previously stated the beige paint and exterior trim are in fantastic original condition, he chrome shows wonderfully and no signs of ageing; even the original badging are in great condition. The contrasting “landau” brown roof section is on par with the exterior paint as well.
Taking a step inside this classic import, he GT model was distinguished by an 8k tachometer, simulated woodgrain dashboard, eather wrapped 4-spoke steering wheel, nd three additional gauges too; which of course, his Celica has and are in fantastic condition. The simulated tan leather seats are in great condition, ith little evidence of use to be found. Matching the seats in color and condition, he carpet is in incredible condition considering the age. The AM/FM multiplex radio remains in the original factory position and condition.

Paired with the W50 5-speed manual transmission this Celica has no issues in modern traffic conditions and is a true experience when the road starts stops being straight.
