Got this car at an auction for 900$.. Has the standard 8RC but im debating whether to sell it and buy the 74 Celica that was recently added on craigs.. Anyone mind helping me out? I want something that might be easier to modifiy

 

Guy is asking 3400 for the Celica. and I got a 4300$ offer on monday for the Corona. I could do the extra mods with the left over money. http://fresno.craigslist.org/cto/3775154898.html Is the Celica.

 

Really sort of the wrong forum to ask this....but i digress.

I would NOT trade the Corona for the Celica, not a chance. The Celica is WAY overpriced, and whooped to boot. The Corona appears to be in pretty damn nice shape, considering the age. Fix it up a little (without all the stupid tuner mods) and sell it for ever more. A real nice one of those could fetch a pretty penny.

 

Is the Corona an overall better car? It runs perfect for what it is and has 59k miles on it right now.

 

Better is such a subjective word.

Everyone has their own taste. The Celica is probably a little more collectible, simply because its more of a sports car

 

The celica looks pretty beat in those photos. Definitely would keep the corona.
