Q: Toyota Celica?
Anyone have a 1990-1993 Toyota Celica? I'm just wondering how good they are? I just got one, and just on an average how long do they last, and what are their major problems if any?
A: Don't let the bitter Detroit union hacks fool you. The Toyota Celica is a very good car. You should get 150,000 out of it without any big repairs, and 250,000 miles if you're willing to spend a few hundred on maintenance.
I've owned 3 Celicas - a 1975, a 1987 converticle and a 1992. All of them rand like champs and sold for good money. I had a little trouble with electric window switch on the 1987, replaced the alternator early on the '92.

Q: How can you tell the difference between a 1997 toyota celica coupe and liftback?
I bought a 1997 toyota celica not that long ago but i couldnt tell what trim it was like a ST or GT. The owner didnt know anything at all. So my question is how can i tell from details from the car if it is a ST or GT? Also how could i tell if it is a coupe or liftback? i couldn't get anything out of the manual.
A: Give your VIN to a Toyota dealer and they can tell you all kinds of stuff about the car.
If your Celica has a 1.8L engine, it's an ST and if it's a 2.2L, it's a GT.
On a liftback model, the rear glass raises when you pop the trunk. The back glass is close to the size of the windshield. A coupe's back glass is shorter and does not move when you open the trunk. Only a conventional decklid opens when you pop the trunk.
Q: Is a 1992 toyota celica gts a good choice for a car?
I am interested in a 1992 toyota celica gts and am wondering what some knowledgeable people in them think. It has 145000 miles and in very good condition for the age. I can get it for 3600 and am wondering if thats a good deal. Is the car even worth it?
A: If it really is in VERY good condition, that's not a bad deal. I'd offer 3 grand if he's asking 3600.
Most Celicas of that age aren't in good enough condition to command that price, though.

A: Fred Haas, either in Spring TX or On Hwy. 249, I'm not so sure about your credit or lack of , but they are pretty good people to work with ..
If not try a used car lot that's been in business for years, there are many, and must have a pretty good record to still be in business, I'm sure they would give you a good deal, and the credit or lack of would not be a problem . Everyone has to start somewhere

Q: What engine coolant do I put in my Toyota Celica?
So my toyota Celica 2003 had some pink fluid in the engine coolant and I dont know what it was... Could I put any kind of engine coolant in there? Such as anti freeze and stuff? Or does it have to be this pink liquid thing that was in there? Thanks for all the answers guys.
A: The pink stuff from Toyota has a "low sulfate" content in it. This is to prevent corrosion and cavitation in the water jackets. I would suggest that you continue to use the "pink stuff" from Toyota. It will result in longer engine life and less hastles in the long run.
Do not mix it with the "green stuff". They are not compatible.
If you decide you want to put the green stuff in your Toyota, make sure you flush the system completely. Like I said... you would be better off with the Pink stuff... It was designed to have that in it and it will make any part that is contacted by coolant last longer. Ask the guys at the Toyota Parts counter to show you what happens to a water pump with the green stuff in it. They will have a pamphlet on it...
Good luck
