You're looking at the finest, sweetest running, like-new, pristine 1984 Toyota Celica GT-S Coupe.  The Coupes were extremely rare and this is an excellent example.   There are lots of Supras and regular Celicas, but you will not find a better GT-S than this one.  This beautiful car has the upgraded 2.4L engine and its a honey.  Smooth as silk and pulls strong and clean.  I just recently bought it from a great guy in Arizona who took absolutely amazing care of this car.  He did a ton of work and its listed below:

No rust
Never in an accident
No rips on seats - these are leather and like new
All equipment works:  Pop-up front lights (and all inside and out), all gauges, power windows & locks, electric sunroof, radio.  Even the Power Antenna!
Clutch is smooth and strong and works excellent
The engine is strong and totally bulletproof.  These things were made to last.
Car starts and runs like brand new.  Was using it as my weekend drive and it's amazing.  Easily gets to 75 or so on the freeway.  Smooth as silk
The center console is one piece and works as designed.  No damage or tears.  All interior bits are in great shape.
Key fob for the Security Alarm and Door Locks
Interior is unmolested and in original condition

Last owner did the following work (and I have all the paperwork):
New Battery
New Wires
New Plugs
Oil Changed every 3000 miles
New Hoses and Belts
New Gear Oil in Rear Diff
New K&N Air Filter
Fuel System Cleaned including Injectors
**Brand New A/C Compressor.  The A/C is ice cold!  The heating/cooling head unit works perfectly and all controls slide as they should

I put:
BRAND NEW TIRES
New Tie Rods
New Wiper Blades


The car is practically brand new, but you must remember it's 28 years old.  There are a few minor flaws.  The paint is showing its age as there are a few scratches and dings.  Nothing major.  There are some very minor scratches on the windshield where one owner let the blades go too long.  You can completely see out and its very minor.  Passes inspection just fine.  If you love these Celicas, you won't find a better one.

This was a dream car for me to own and I'm very sad to let it go.  However, an IRS bill has come up and I must settle things.  The car must go.  I've had the dream to own one of these since high school.  This is an amazingly perfect example and I couldn't have been happier with it.  Drove it weekends and on special occasions.

You will love it.  Be serious about bidding and be prepared to baby it as it deserves.  I won't let it go unless it's to a deserving owner.

Send an email with any questions.   SERIOUS ONLY!

Why Toyota Camry's Korea Car of the Year win is a big-time upset

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

The 2013 Toyota Camry is officially the car of the year in Korea. The country's motoring press graced the Japanese sedan with the honor for the first time, officially marking a shift in prevailing Korean attitudes toward Japan and its products. According to industry analysts, buyers in the country are no longer simply choosing their purchases based on whether or not they're made in South Korea, but rather based on quality and personal choice. That's a big jump from a few years ago, when buyers viewed their purchases through a patriotic lens.
The Camry managed to edge out a total of 44 other cars, including hardware from both Hyundai and Kia, to become the first foreign vehicle to take home the Korea Automobile Journalist Association's Car of the Year award. As The Detroit News points out, just 10 years ago, domestic manufacturers held some 99 percent of the Korean car market. But a change in trade regulations has opened up the country considerably, and buyers now have access to a wide range of products from around the globe. As a result, Hyundai and Kia have countered by cutting prices in an attempt to keep their grip on the market.

Carmakers ask Trump to revisit fuel efficiency rules

Mon, Feb 13 2017

Car companies operating in the US are required to meet stringent fuel efficiency standards (a fleet average of 54.5MPG) through 2025, but they're hoping to loosen things now that President Trump is in town. Leaders from Fiat Chrysler, Ford, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Toyota and VW have sent a letter to Trump asking him to rethink the Obama administration's choice to lock in efficiency guidelines for the next several years. The car makers want to revisit the midterm review for the 2025 commitment in hopes of loosening the demands. They claim that the tougher requirements raise costs, don't match public buying habits and will supposedly put "as many a million" jobs up in the air. The Trump administration hasn't specifically responded to the letter, although Environmental Protection Agency nominee Scott Pruitt had said he would return to the Obama-era decision. The automakers' argument doesn't entirely hold up. While the EPA did estimate that the US would fall short of efficiency goals due to a shift toward SUVs and trucks, the job claims are questionable. Why would making more fuel efficient vehicles necessarily cost jobs instead of pushing companies to do better? As it is, even a successful attempt to loosen guidelines may only have a limited effect. All of the brands mentioned here are pushing for greater mainstream adoption of electric vehicles within the next few years -- they may meet the Obama administration's expectations just by shifting more drivers away from gas power.

Autotrader picks best cars for 2015's college grads

Sun, May 31 2015

Summer is here and the school season is winding to a close. That means millions of students will be graduating college and (hopefully) entering the workforce. For many, that will mean buying a new car suited to the new stage in life into which they will now be embarking. That can be a bewildering choice, especially for someone who's never bought a car before. Fortunately, Autotrader has come up with a short list of recommended cars – new and used – which it recommends to the graduating class of 2015. Among the site's top choices are some compelling crossovers and hatchbacks, including the Buick Encore, Chevy Trax, and Jeep Renegade, as well as the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa Note, Mazda3 and Fiat 500. Can't stretch to buying new, or don't see the point? Autotrader has also identified the Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion and even the Lexus IS as smart buys in the certified pre-owned category. "Any time someone goes through a major life change, such as graduating college, they need to determine if their current ride makes sense for their lifestyle, from both a financial and functional perspective," says Autotrader editor Brian Moody. "For example, while that hand-me-down SUV from your parents was nice when you turned 16, you may want to opt for a safer, more fuel-efficient car as you transition into the working world." Autotrader Names 10 Best Cars for Recent College Graduates ATLANTA, May 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For many, graduating college is a milestone like no other – it represents a new chapter, a proud accomplishment and, fortunately or unfortunately, financial independence. Luckily for graduates who are in the market for a new car to suit their post-college lifestyle, Autotrader's expert editors say now is a great time to make a purchase, as dealerships are flush with affordable models that are fun, fuel-efficient and thoughtfully designed.
