I found a Japanese VHS porno video hidden inside the rear interior panel. Wierd...

I always wave at Gen7's and the response is mostly an open mouthed look of amazement lol, I do get alot more waves back from Honda Type R owners than Celica's.

Raaaaaaaaahdiator!! And those 15in rims look tasty!!!!

This.

WTF?

I own a TRD Sports-M which is one of 1200 numbered special editions. Mine is one of only 2 Astral Black Sports-Ms in the UK.

That sucks mate! Have heard of people claiming from councils for stuff like this, apparently it is possible but there are some technicalities involved, not too sure what they are but something to do with whether said pothole has been reported to them already or not. Maybe a websearch will have some consumer action type forum where this has been done to point you in the right direction?

Nah, I love my Celica, could do with more power but its not a reason to hate!!

I think its safe to say its genuine then! You did well to find that, Enjoy one of, if not THE best Gen7 Spoiler.

No stamp, the only thing I can think of is there is a small hole on the underside of the blades on the ends of the spoiler, if Blaine's has those then I think it's safe to say its genuine.

I can confirm the underside of the spoiler is smooth as a baby's nether regions, you can see the same in the second pic. I would think the stamp would be under the sticky rubber pad on the bit that meets the boot on the struts, if it is anywhere.

Darragh's Sports-M didnt have a TRD-Sports-M Spoiler. As for the one in the listing It looks genuine to me, its also in a genuine Sports-M colour too. Cant comment on whether mine has a stamp on as I have never removed it but my scoop and skirts have TOYOTA stamps in them.

Im amazed at how many the 1st 3 Generations sold, makes the last 4 look like peanuts.... For some reason, I thought it would be in reverse with the most being the last 3 Gen's..

According to Wikipedia the 1-millionth Celica was produced in June 1977 by Toyota so I wonder how many were produced in the entire run. Anyone know??

Stanced RA61 Anyone? http://www.fastcar.co.uk/2012/11/23/jesse-james-daily-celica/

I'm going for stance with mine, then will go for power later as you can always change wheels and adjust the coilovers if you want to go fast.

The new Volvo's have their DRL's in the fog light position and if I didnt have the TRD Fogs I would have them there too. I always wondered how the fuzz would differentiate between the 2.

Umm nothing really actually. This was when my car was just parked up outside my house and he just turned up and started examining my car. I watched for 10 mins before I went out and asked him what he was doing. The reason he gave was this "I am checking all car tyres in this area in case they are illegal." So I replied, "OK, if the tyres on this car were illegal, who would get the points as its obv not being driven?" He said "The registered keeper!" I laughed hysterically, took this pic and went back inside. After a few more minutes he left without lookin at any of my other cars, or any of the others in the street. In the small town I live in, situated in Oxfordshire population approx. 40k I am one of few people who have had modified/performance cars over the years. Got stopped, searched, asked to produce documents, followed for miles without getting pulled etc etc all the time..

BOW TO THE POWER OF THE CELICA PC PLOD! I suggest for the next Pic your Celica with any Zoo Animal, eg Safari Park, Giraffe, Elephant Yak etc,

Photo Challenge? Where? Cant find it??

My tyres and rims were 2 days old when this happened so he was obv blagging and looking for something else. notice he has his notebook and making notes too....

This copper used to hound me. On this day I was at home, chilling, the car was parked outside my house, so the copper comes into the street and starts looking at my car in great detail. I watched for 10 mins before I went out and asked him what he was doing. The reason he gave was this "I am checking all car tyres in this area in case they are illegal." So I replied, "OK, if the tyres on this car were lillegal, who would get the points as its obv not being driven?" He said "The registered keeper!" I laughed hysterically and went back inside. After a few more minutes he left without lookin at any of my other cars, or any of the others in the street. Wierd Piggy that one. :/

Had this many many times, they even looked in my petrol cap, and washer reservoir, and they are always disappointed when they don't find anything. In my town if you are 'of ethnic origin' and drive anything other than a taxi or something that looks like it costs more than £1k then you must be up to something. Nearly 20 years of experience of this. I never get pulled in the starlet tho lol

Agree with Brian GT. I used to get 'routine' stopped all the time, at least once a week, just because of the car I drove and the fact that there are some small-minded coppers in this small Oxfordshire town, who dont share the view that all are equal if you get my drift... It took 2 months of photocopying producers and then sending a strong letter to the Chief Constable for the harassment to stop. Some coppers really are utter cnuts. I also have some video of a copper stopping me for speeding whilst i was reversing into my garage hahaha. May upload it for a laugh later.
