Can you see yourself in another car?


Recommended Posts

I've been seriously bitten by the Celica bug, every car I get in now just feels like there is so much space in the car and you are riding in a fucking high chair :lol: Gear knob is like an actual gear stick all the way down low and you have to move your whole body to go from 1st - 2nd etc. Wher ein the Celica it's only a short shaft (lol) and the whole center console armrest thing is nice and high so you feel all tucked in.

I can't describe it I just love the 'cockpit' type feel to the interior the Celica has where it sort of 'encases you' in the car, only car I can see myself in after this is a Supra now as that has a even nicer interior where the whole dash basically curves around the and faces the driver.

Usually start getting bored of cars after 4-5 years, but I still love the look & feel of the Celica. I'm still very protective of her & double/triple glance at her everytime I walk away :blush:

I've contemplated selling a few times lately to get something a bit more economical, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.......I just love the car that much & wouldn't want to change it for anything else at the moment B)

My mate has a 3ltr twin turbo'd Supra pushing about 450bhp & he's looking to come back to another 7 :)

I can see myself in a lamborghini reventon but it will never happen. So, for now, the Celica is good enough :D keeps a smile on my face when driving it

Well, I love my celica to bits, and will more then likely take it to my Grave with me, But...

  • Toyota Levin GT Apex
  • MK1 Ford Capri with big blown V8
  • Rover SD1 Vitesse

The FT-86 looks too shiney and 'perfect' to me. I am also bitter as its engine and rear wheel drive is what should have been under the celica in the first place :angry:

Yeah easily, kind of getting bored of the GT-Four at the moment (which isn't helping motivate me to repair her, lol) and at some point will buy and own an US Muscle/Pony car of some description, or at least a V8

If you like the high arm rest and cockpit feel, may i suggest the MR2 mk2. i had one, and id have another turbo import in a heart beat!! you sit even deeper in with wrap around console, loved the car to death, but buying a house meant i had to sell.

Im thinking of getting another one while the Celi is off the road while i drop in a 2JZ-GTE and rear drive. But as said, i think ill take my celi to the grave!! it will just get more modified and faster as it grows old disgracefully!! :lol:

The old MR2 cockpit (snigger):

Nothing out there would be within my price range.

I've yet to find a car that excites me visually and has all the feel and handling of the Celica for anything less than treble/quadruple the cost of the Celica.
