1989 Toyota Celica GT Convertible. Manual transmission. 130,000 kilometres. Guess how much they’re asking? Go ahead, guess, I’ll wait.

Did you guess?

Whatever you guessed, you were wrong.

Seventy.

Five .

Thousand.

I was trying to look for anything with louvres. I found this instead. I’m sorry.

You have to remember that you’re not the target audience for this car. See how it specifies “lady owner”? This’ll get bought up quick by a Japanese vending machine company and shipped back home.

That’s okay. But also: NO

Even if it comes with the land it sits on it wouldn’t be worth that. That is, if you’d stretch it and it’s an immaculate example, a 5500 dollar car. More likely around 3000.

Got to be a typo.. But even 7500 is pushing it.

They messed up the listing saying it as a 2.2l. It has a 3sfe 2.0..

Plus it’s an 89 year model which is the most common year.

I had an 87' st162 vert was an awesome looking car. But nothing special to drive.

$7,500 would be a possible price — if it were a GT-S

“Lady owner.” Is this still a selling point to some people out there? To whom? It would be a deterrent if the lady cared as little about cars as my wife.

For sure. Pretty sure even the verts came with the 3sge in Europe.

I was going to guess 10 grand US and say ‘too much.’ But, as near as makes no difference, asking 60 grand US for what is a nice little (very) old Japanese convertible? This is just CP of the worst sort.

My mom used to street race in the 60s. She totaled a few very desirable cars. No one should ever buy a car that has ever been in my mom’s possession.

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > CB 06/19/2016 at 20:55

My eyes skipped down to the word in bold, so I thought the price was 5,000, and was like. “That’s a little high for a FWD Celica, but I can see it for a Toyota nerd”

That was the price five minutes before Le Mans ended, MUCH cheaper now.

Wat?! Those aren’t even original wheels, are they? Humph.
