Thank you providing the ONLY REVIEW on Celicas that is worth while to watch! Im getting a GT-S within the next few months and this is the only review that shows everything.
@xmertonx Wow dude, lol I thought I was the only mother fucker with that problem, but to answer your question yes there is a slight noise(coming from the passenger side) windshield/door. My suspension is tight as shit, I will warn you the (stock)shocks are fucking expensive as shit for some reason.
@xGLITCHESx Hey, i own a 01, Celica GT with barely hitting 60,000 original KMs, and the GT can infact keep up with a GTS for the first half of mile, but then thats when the GTS starts pulling away, doing some extra stuff i can keep up with a GTS,
Weight reduction can actually increase HP!!!!! (Taking off 10lbs of a car would increase by 1 HP
@xGLITCHESx and honestly thats without adding anything, so if you love your GT, and dont wanna trade it in, try some weight reductions then buy the turbo ;)
I know this is your opinion but I feel like you downplay the car's true potential. My opinion is that this isn't a car that is meant to blow past people. I have the exact same car, except mine is a 2005 (5spd MT) and came with all the options from the dealership, the only mods that are done is it has been lowered and inch. I can seriously throw the car around corners and it will stay level, its really fun.
the main reason that more cars are going more plastic is because they are forced to use more recycled materials i think its something like 78% of the car which HAS to be made of used recycled materials, i may be wrong but thats my guess, would you recomend this for my first car or shouldi get a mazda Mx5 convertible?
It is actually true what some of these guys says. The automatic one sucks compared to the manual. I have driven both and the auto doesn't really shift when I want it to, I guess it is because auto transmissions were not enough developed when making this car. On the manual on the other hand is the car I'm driving now, absolutely love it. You actually feel the power alot more. -Thanks!
@tony484x it can rev higher and has lift (similar to vtec). its slower than his model at low rpms but much faster at high rpm especially when lift kicks in at 6200 rpm. ur engine has a higher compression ratio so u need premium gas for the vvtLi 2zzge(ur engine. notice the "L"). his car has a 1zzfe and has vvti.
My 1999 Honda Accord was just victim from a fire so I need a new car. I'm looking for used cars around my Provence and I've narrowed to wish list down to five cars.
Toyota Celica
Acura Rsx
Mitsubishi Eclipse
Hyundai Tiburon
Mitsubishi Lancer
The Tiburon and Celica would cost me about 3000 less at least.
@MegadethRustInPeace It depends on the year of the models your looking at but the Acura RSX Type S is the better of what you listed(Toyota Celica/Acura RSX are extremely reliable(after 03 model's)) The eclipse, Tiburon, and Lancer are by no means reliable as Toyota/Acura, plus the acura rsx type s has more horsepower.
Few things wrong with your review having owned a 2003 celica GT, the hood scoop does have function, there was too much warm air building up near the passenger wall, in this case this keeps the side cool. Secondly, your GT has 15inch Alloy wheels, not 17, the GT-S has standard 16. Why would you put 20-21 inch wheels on the celica, unless you're buying VOLKS. By the way your headlights are aftermarket, not stock. GT is a great car. Not "Soft" leather interiors. It's mesh.
@metaljunkie209 after my trade in(only $5,000.00) I paid 4,800 tax, title, and reg. The vehicle has 85,000~ miles on it, and on previous owner.( the KBB is around 9,500 dollars in good codition).
Nice honest review. I was a little surprised when you said the spoiler had no purpose.......Because all spoilers have purpose. Its not like you need fancy technology to give a car more downforce over the back tires. And that spoiler looks like it has a fairly noticeable tilt so it definately accomplishes that. Anyway, Im only at the 3 minute mark.
im not a big fan of this car, nothing wrong with it but the man behind the camera sounds like a pretty sweet dude, not arrogant like 95% of the other drivers.

i have a question. i have the GT and i was thinking to get the GT-S just for the extra HP
but at the same time i can tune the 5spd GT like a turbocharger and other mods and get the same or even better performace as the GT-S but not shore

Weight reduction can actually increase HP!!!!! (Taking off 10lbs of a car would increase by 1 HP
-Taking out the WHOLE back seat, 30-35lbs = 4 HP
-Riding with less then half a tank,
-taking out spare tire and jack
with this i beat GTS's.
