Good Bye...?

Well guys..i think i might be getting rid of the 4runner. i traded her in yesterday..so if everything goes ok with the loan and all..i will be the proud owner of a 1999 Toyota Celica GT. i loved my truck to death..but i kinda fell outta love with her when i was involved in my last hit and run. Here are a couple of pics of the new ride...enjoy..

1999 Toyota Celica GT, 5 speed, all leather, moon roof, power everything, alarm, cruise control..its really nice..

Ofoto Site

tell me if it works or not..Thanks guys..

Nice ride! Sorry to see you go. At least you stayed with a Toyota.

We'll see you when you come to your senses and get another 4Runner.

Nice car but weak in the HP dept. and you can't really do much to eke more ponies out of that particular engine. In Japan they got a turbo/AWD version which is badass.

The AWD model does 12-13 in the quarter mile! Congratulations on the purchase Corey, sorry to hear you're leaving the 4Runner community, make sure to visit the forum once in awhile.

Sorry to see you go man. I still remember back in the day when you offered to meet me half way to Ohio to help replace my cv boot. You're a good guy. Good luck with the celica and everything else.

Cheers

Of course the Cleica has Toyota quality but for the money there's better cars in the small sporty car market so I couldn't be a brand whore just to stay within a brand of cars. I previously owned a Mitsubishi but I'd really couldn't see owning a Montero over a 4Runner.

Ah...im gonna miss ya guys...but ill stop buy every once in and while. last night i was at a light with the g/f and this guy in a riced out neon pulled up next to me. he asked if i wanted to race and i told him no. he then told me i didnt have to be scared..so i asked him if he wanted to see the piss stains in my pants... he said he didnt want to...i thought it was pretty funny. the yota was good to me for being 13 years old...but the gas was killing me. i hate to see her go...maybe one day i will return to the truck world.

EDIT: anyone know any good celica sites??

So are you keeping the Celica?

If so, I hope there will be a 3SGTE swap in your future!!

Anyways there are a couple of Celica Sites I go to:

celica.net <-- Good info, but they can be immature at times.

toyotanation.com <-- mostly Camry guys there, but there is a forum for Celica's

alltrac.net <-- For the alltrac Celica's or people looking to do a 3SGTE swap.
