might be replacing the camry

my girlfriend really needs a new car and likes mine, she wants to buy my 95 wagon but i really like it.

but...... i can replace it with a 02 celica gt with 120k miles.

anyone have any experience with these cars? it's a toyota so i'm not too worried about reliability unless the previous owner treated it poorly.

im worried about regretting selling my car as i'v treated it really well and fixed anything it's needed.

I'm not really a fan of them. They are not nearly as easy to work on as the Camry's are. (but still not really hard). They also have a ton less space than your wagon does. They are fairly zippy due to being much lighter with a little more hp, but I still wouldn't call them a fast car. Great on gas though!

i'm kinda thinking that. i like the celica and it handles nicely but it's too small. the celica is a manual and she doesnt want a manual.


the celica is a chick car but my wagon is a granny car! haha i like it.
