Great write up! Thank you!
@@MitchDore he has the same 2zz with the t sport Corolla ??
6) Rally Pedigree
7) It actually makes a decent 2WD Limited class rally car in its own right.
I searched for 6 mos, found mine last week, flew & drove home! '03 with under 100K for $6500. The leather is like new, body is nearly perfect, babied by only 2 owners in south. It is SO beautiful! I agree with all your reasons but since I don't drive manual...well yea it's automatic. Maybe learn for next one!;) But I plan to keep this fantastic car for years!! GET ONE if you can to anyone considering👍
Congratulations 🎉 you will absolutely love it!! Welcome to the fam!
@@MitchDore Thank you! I know I'm in minority as a female owner😉
Is it carbon blue color?
@@Ricky714SA It is the zephyr blue, yes;) You remember the listing?
@@karalynne7616 Awesome find, can you do a walkthrough video of it or if its cool, if you have Instagram can you show me through there?
I’ve had my 2000 GTS since 2003 and I put Wisconsin collector plates on it last year. I plan to keep it forever!
Just bought a Toyota Celica 2002 for £1000!! Absolutely love it even tho I'm new to manual
I love your enthusiasm for this car. Might I suggest a 6th reason to buy a Celica. The liftback or liftgate. When you fold the rear seat down there is about an acre of space back there. I put a blanket over that space for my dog and she loves it, lots if room for her to lie down or move around. So this isn't just a sporty ride, it's practical too! Good for tools, surfboards, whatever.
I moved apartments twice with my celica as my truck. yes there is alot of room in there somehow.
Love the little work bench for tools as well
I bought one 6 months ago and i am in absolute LOVE! i love how unique it is. It has made my life so much better. I daily drive it And having 6 gears makes driving it so much more fun. And i get so much attention and alot of compliments because people who never seen one thinks that im driving a really expensive exotic car lol. Not to mention all the mods ive done makes it look even more different. They are just beyond great im never gonna get rid of mine. I cant name a better car to have. These cars were definitely ahead of their time
Makes me all the more proud to be a GT-S owner
The Celica ad slogan is pretty accurate: "Looks fast"
lmao
and the commercials are insanely funny
Living in a apartment has been hell on mine, I had mine vandalized and I refuse to fix anything on the exterior until I finish renovating the house I just bought. Gonna need new headlight assemblies and front fenders and a new coat of silver metallic but mechanically my car is perfect. No grinding gears, lift engages, and the curvy roads around where I live make driving a blast!
7:52 I know I'm like 2 years late to the video but respect for using a hardstyle song lol
i got lucky with mine, i purchased it for 1k full trd body kit, 2zz, six speed manual and let me tell you, best purchase i’ve ever made:).
🙀
I bought my celica gt-s 30 days ago
Hey Mitch, I just bought a 2002 Celica Gts with the TRD package and a phase 3 chip. This is my second Celica, the first was a second generation I bought in the 80's. Everything you said is spot on. I had to laugh when you stumbled and said Honda. This Celica being a front wheel drive I feel like I'm driving a Honda.
Congratulations brother!
I got a fairly poor condition 2003 GT-S for a steal, love the 2zz, just gotta get to work on it to keep it on the road. Automatic is pretty fun
Totally agree with you Mitch, as you know I bought a 2000 model with only 20 000km on it 5 months ago (for $9500 AUS). I'm tastefully modding it up with the option of returning it to 100% stock if that is a better option to sell in the future.
I still have my 2001 celica that I bought back in 2005. Still running hard.
I bought my 02 Celica GTS, 173,000 mile for $4300. Negotiated the price down. Nice garage kept, 1 owner.
Great car!
1) because it’s great
2)because it’s great
3)because it’s great
I’ve got a 01 Gt with 250,000 all my miles! Castro’s GTX every 3000. No valve noise at all, made in Japan. Auto , ac all works. Thinking about painting. 2000 seems high for paint. Never had a car for more than 3 years before celiac. 20 years same owner.. Love ❤️
2000 is nothing for paint
The prices are going higher every day. You can't find this much fun for 6 grand anywhere else. All of the Celica contemporaries are now tuna cans.
I absolutely love mine celica. My only 3 issues: the butt looks pretty high, the body line is not straight but slightly angeled. Would be perfect if the low window line would be parallel to the street. next issue: still got the original lights. If there would be some sharper angeled lines in the lights like in the ferrari 488 or nissan gtr that car would look definitely 100 times more agressive what leads me to my last point. The car looks agressive, and when you ride alone you can have fun with it. But since mine got just 143ps if i want to show someone that this car is fun, my celli just wont speed up if a second person sits in the car. Its always like they think there are like 300-400ps under the hood so they all say... Dont worry, i like speed, you can floor the pedal... And im like well thars what im doin...
Story of my life LOL!
These things with the TRD package looks incredible. Looks alone sell me on these models
this right here is why i like where i live i found one with under 100k miles in perfect condition 2000 gts for 2500
i’m going to see a 2000 gts 6-speed tmr! hopefully i get it
did you get it
Going to get mine next weekend ❤️
I found mine after look for one day Idk how, 56k miles and FSH with fresh MOT and full service before I take it home from the dealer for £2450...oh and 3 months extendable warranty
God I have a 1988 corolla GTS and really want a celica GTS. I have a nice 350z I’m willing to trade for one
I got a celica GT on my birthday last year
I can’t wait to get my celica
You will love it!
I own one its design was futuristic at the time it was made up to now 22 years have passed but when I park it beside a new car you wouldn't feel it's 20-plus years old because of its unique sporty design
Bought a T-Sport 2 weeks ago, it was sold in 2005 and only has 85.000 miles on it
Congrats My friend! You will love it!
@@MitchDore It's fantastic, even with the few things that can use some love (3rd gear is a bit tricky to operate). I am already making a list, of things I want to do to it; cars and everything car related is very expensive here, so it will be a month or two before I can get started.
I'm looking at Celicas and am curious, how much did you pay for yours?
@@noahwilliams2718 Hey Noah, first I want to say, cars are VERY expensive here, so I'm not sure how much use it is to you. I managed to haggle it down from around $16600 to $15000 and had about a grand worth of work done to it. Something like a new Aygo starts at $16000.
@@benneburg Alright, thank you for replying so fast! I'm going to look at one later today and was wondering if it was a good deal or not :)
I 💖 my Celica VVTi 143 hp!
2000+ manual GTS are selling for $3000-$5000 CDN
Man I got lucky I found mine for $1400 and all I needed to do is replace the clutch and the breaks so all together I paid under 4 grand
I just got a 2000 gts as my first car
Theres one in auction rn and i told my momma this is the car i'd work with.. Also a reason why im watching alot of videos for the celica
Nice video!! Thanks for sharing and happy new year! All the best to you this year😊
Happy New Year My Friend
Want a RSX type S but they are so hard to find in good condition without being over 12k but the Celica GTS is regularly under 7k
Celica GT-S with turbo
i have the ZR model 6 gear manual
Wowwieeee that thing can rev! 🤯🎉
🔥🌶️
I got the matrix xrs. I will drive it until it fall into piece. God i have beaten this car so many times and she don't give a F! Normal services here and there. I burned almost 3 exhaust pipe tho. I change the lift bolt and the vvtl oil screen recently and she run like the old times. Rear brake are a pain in the arse but everything else is guud
i really hope get this car before its price gone mad....
Problem is it’s not a auto manual would be too much 😢
the goods ones are getting harder to find specially in Canada were there is snow. that is why I am having are time letting go because the value is going up specially never driven in winter since I got it
The GTS is the perfect fwd sports car from the zeros... If the EP3 didn't exist. And I say this as a proud GTS owner. Which is a shame cause the EP3 looks like a grocery bag full of garbage.
ep3 weighs more and has an inferior suspension setup, only advantage it has is the k20
Ok I gotta know, what the heck is that bodykit??
This is a Celica gts TRD edition i believe. Very rare in this condition. All from factory.
@@THRASHDEATH my neighbour has one, few more around here but I've heard rare
There's a 2ZZ for sale on eBay here in England only 27k miles but £5k; however there's a slightly sketchy history. Somebody could be getting a bargain!
it's very cheap.The next years u will not find a good condition 2zz celica(t-sport)under 10k
celica is toyota's Integra GSR
@MichDorne What is that body? I'm about to buy Celica TS and that body of yours is astonishing
Got my gts 6 months ago sadly its an automatic still fun car though who knows maybe ill swap to a manual later on
What year is your car and how many miles?
@@GLO_187 2000 with high miles 230k
I got 2000 with 139,000 miles for 3,600
I know they're fairly different cars but I'm looking for a first car and it's a toss up between the Mazda 2 sport and the Toyota Celica. I need space for at least four people in the car though, I would use it for fairly long journeys and I need decent fuel economy, ideally at least 40mpg combined UK.
The celica does not fit 4 adults. No matter what the inclusion of a backseat tries to tell you, they're all lies. If you're under 6ft you might be able to fit 2 kids in the back, but that's about it
@@IwanNieuwland It's fine now anyway, I'm now looking for a suzuki swift sport.
i love this car
Celica T-Sport 01' has joined the chat.
I can find very many out there. There's one i'm looking at that seems to be well looked after with 237k miles on it for 4 grand. You think I should get it? I drive 150 miles a day. Think it will last?
i really love my Celica and it's handling is great but to be honest my roommate's honda Integra just always feels a tiny bit better while doing moutain runs :(
Because the Integra IS better, but if you look at the money you have to put down for a decent Integra nowadays compared to the GTS it's amazing how small the difference is.
Seat Cupra 4x4 turbo 280hp
Rather get a RSX-S for those prices, much better performance.
Are these reliable?? I know it’s Toyota but still I’m curious
Yes very reliable
if I have a GTS but with a stock rear wing.. can I just bolt on using the stock holes already there and put the Action TRD wing on? Can I also just bolt on the side and front and rear skirts?
What front bumper you rocking?
Have you had any excessive intake cam wear on any of your 2zz's especially the lotus?
I've been trying for years to understand why this happens but I haven't found an answer, some people I know with over 300k miles are ok
Nice 350z bro 😀👍
Where can I find one in my area
I found a nice cheap toyota celica 2000, but many people say it's a girl car? :/. Looks nice though
When r u getting cold air intakes
Ive got a 2001 gts for sale
Anyone knows the best year of the 7th Gen Celica? Recommendations anyone? I may get one soon but don’t know what year to get-
2000 GTS is the fastest. The lift engages from 6000k to 8500k. You can take the other models and modify the ECU and tweak the lift, but stock. The 2000
Got mine but issa gt
Celica gts or mr2 spyder?
Gts for an only car, Mr2 for a weekend car.
Got a mr2 mk3 in red and possibly buying a low mileage celica in red tomorrow here in the UK to replace it. The mr2 mk3 is my current daily.
What kind of body kit does it have
thats the tsunami kit with the trd wing
What if we got the regular gt 7th gen
Still great, just a little less hp
What is your exhaust bro?
Was the gts only sold in America? I'm in England trying to find one
its called a tsport in europe, just look for the 2zzge then you know its a gts :)
In the UK it's either called a 190 (this is the earliest version of the 2zz engine) the next upgrade is called the T sport (same engine, different size wheels/ interior) and the top spec in the UK is called the Celica VVT-i GT (This has different interior compared to the T sport, lower suspension, and the body kit)
Should i buy one automatic 3k in houston tx little over 100k
I am not a fan of the automatics, but you should test drive. You might love!
I own a Lotus as well and I'm wondering since you are neck deep with 2zz engines. Have you had issues with high idle issues like 3 to 4k rpm? My Exige is doing this idle issues. Thank you.
what wheels are those Mitch?
I've been to that exact same location lol
doesnt the 2zz come with forged rods from factory
yes
The 2zz has forged rods,crankshaft and cast pistons the block can handle easy over 400hp with lower compression pistons.
outdated , lack of power , not techy now adays . Parts hard to find especially ss2 version
outdated? and these have a good amount of power. someone who wants a car like this is not gonna care about tech, was made for driving. parts are easy to find wdym? you can still buy pretty much everything brand new from toyota and there is still more aftermarket parts being made
And 6: mileage anyone?
Toyota Celica GTS from 2000 to 2006 are the worse engine ever made. It's a collaboration with Yamaha. If this car is driven hard all the time. The piston rings will snap. Also, the engine suffers from oil starvation due to bad design from the oil pan. Don't get me wrong. I love the look and design of these cars. I just wish Toyota made it more reliable. I know some people that replaced their engines about 2-3 times during their ownership.
Not true. Many Celica GT-S 2zz-ge have over 300k miles.
Don't get me wrong. You should just link Scotty. You kinda just copied everything he said in his video
@@joshuaprobably852 Scotty Kilmer aside. Are you going to deny the flawed oil pan design? The mechanic that i go to get lots of GT-S. He either rebuild the engine or replace them entirely. I've been eyeing on these cars for awhile but for the price north of 6k and their junk. Also whatever things might go wrong could set you back 2k up. No sir. I can get a car for 5k and beat modified GT-S all day.
@@40Lovetomatch The oil pan and oil pump issues are common knowledge as are the fixes. If anybody's buying one of these cars, they owe it to themselves to do their homework but then that's the case with *any* higher performance/high revving engine design.
what???🤔it's not true
