splinter Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 I would like an S14 or S15. i think they are nice supra sized GT cruisers. Saying that, a toyota supra should be on this list!! 3.0 twin turbo!! woop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjaspy Posted March 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Thanks for all the responses. Some nice cars there. Problem is some of them look old inside or out (s15, Fiat Coupe). The thing I love about the Celica is it still looks modern today...so I would love to drop a turbo or supercharger in my current car. Problem is though, that's 3k (correct me if I'm wrong) that I'll never get back when it comes to selling. What are your opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nthnmunky Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 It's more like £4.5-5k realistically. No, you won't ever recoup the cost of mods of any description on any car, anything you add will cost YOU money not the next owner, in fact you may be putting prospective buyers off and reducing the overall value of your car. It would complete your Celica though F/I makes the car as good as it should have been from the factory I'm cool with the fact that despite spending a shedload of cash that my car is hardly worth any more than a standard '02 Celica if I decide to sell. I did it for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan23 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Yeah I'd say s13 s14 or s15 or a r32/33/34 if you want some real fun with turbo and rwd or if you wanna stick with Toyota a mr2 turbo or a nice supra tt. All depends what your budget is really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nthnmunky Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Dan, he already said an S15 looks old, I doubt he'd go for an S13 or S14 instead, likewise the Skylines are all pretty old ~(although the R34 is a peach but still quite pricey) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan23 Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 fail to see how the s15 looks dated when they were made the same time as the gen7s. I mean how the he'll does thus look dated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbdags Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Because they look like a 90s Jap car Dan. No two ways about it. The Gen 7 looks far more modern. Its looks were well ahead of its time - in fact they were very innovative in 1999. The S15 looks like it came from the same period as the Gen 6. Here's a better picture of a stock one as yours is modded to fook and tries to bring the car into the 21st century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
