I can't imagine a single reason why you would want to change from a galant to a crappy celica. If you want a coupe, why not go with a mivec fto?

I've seen quite a few of those here in NZ and unfortunately I think they are f****n ugly. If you are going to get a celica at least amke it a GT-4.

sorry to ask - but why do u think an older celica will be any cheaper to run???

why not get a newer galant that needs less work done / lower mileage that not going to need anything other than petrol and servicing.....

Celicas would have to be one of the ugliest cars to ever touch tarmac. Ragtop or no.

Please don't do it.........please.

I can think of a few convertables that, while I wouldn't drive myself, would list a little lower on my "@$%& right off" list.

EG. MX5, Escort, Impalla(if you can run a 383 or 440 ci), Saab etc.

Impalla would have to be my all tie favouite rag top. 64-66 to be exact. Absolute dogs to run though. Top burn outs though, plus you look like a pimp. :beerbang:
