Overall the car is a pretty nice car the gas mileage Is amazing. Very easy to work on. The pop up head lights are a very nice touch to the vehicle. If you are looking for a car with good gas mileage, looks, this is the perfect car for you.Mar 25, 2015

In my owning of it, this car was as reliable as I needed it to be, but by no means anything extraordinarily special. I may have been afraid to trust it for a road trip without frequent attention to various engine lubrication, inevitably becoming its unfortunate demise. Considering I'd personally had the maintenance money needed to bring it back to par, this car would have paralleled any honest champ of the like for years, but I was lucky enough to keep it topped off with oil and gas while I could for the 2 years it was is working condition. This later frustration of a way around town may now imminently be destined for an unfairly dispersed afterlife, but given a miracle in a certain amount of proper care and knowledgeable repair, I have honest belief in its obvious potential to be reborn as a sports coupe easily, if not more, comfortable, enjoyable, and reliable as the rest.Feb 16, 2015

Everything is now starting to deteriorate due to its age - making it expensive to keep on the road.
Doors are exceedingly large and at the moment don't stay open which makes it hard to get in and out.
Seats are a very snug fit and very low, also making it hard to get in and out.
Back seat is really only for 2, since they are also bucket type seats.
Low petrol consumption on long trips.
High petrol consumption around town.
Replaced smaller front tyres which were not standard fit.
In country Australia I only need to turn off overdrive on steep hills.Jan 14, 2012

accelerates good, brakes good, handles perfect with new suspension.
the back end rattles going over bumps, needed many repairs when I first bought it.
the interior styling is nice. the exterior is good as long as the paint looks good. the curvature of the body is nice.
gas mileage is pretty good. 21 city 26 highway
very fun to drive, 5spd only, automatics suck anyway. drove it to anderson, indiana and back four times in one weekend with zero problems

issues we had and bent a rode. now that i replaced the motor its basic stuff that
was put off well it was not drive able.Mar 15, 2011

My first car bought 5yrs ago for $800, best
$800 ive ever spent. It has 222,000 miles on it
and is still reliable(would have been) it was
just smashed last week,But great on gas
mileage, maintenance minimal. acceleration was awesome when first got it but has diminished
over time due to age and millage, exhaust
system could have used some improvements. Definitely recommended. Jan 12, 2011

The old owner said it's completely stock, had a few rattles and a little dent, but still good. Would cost me about $1500 to buy officially but am getting there. Haven't driven it yet, but hoping to very soon. Anyone know where I can get a pop-up light?Jul 12, 2010

Slow accelation with an automatic, but you can feel the HP come in around
3500rpm. Easily continues its acceleration well past the speed limit (because
who follows the speed limit?) and doesnt seem to slow down until past 100.
Sitting in the backseat is like sitting in the cockpit of a plane: its loud and you
cant hear anything from the front seat. Great at handling corners and fast
turns!And that's without a sway bar--if would be even better with it on.
Overall, the car looks great, except mine has some major rust on the rocker
panel but its still holding up well and isnt noticeable. But overall, this car is
simply a past to drive fast!!May 17, 2010

Its got around 250 bhp, 0-60 in around 6 secs, top speed restricted to 186 kmph :(
Its costs a bit 2 run, 80 euro fills the tank, and that gets roughly 250 miles.
I love it tho, when its clean it a great car 2 look at....Feb 20, 2010

I love my Clelica but it lacks a little on the horsepower side. Good handeling car and overall fun to drive, and the metalic red paint job dont hurt any. If yall get a chance to get one for the right price I highly recomend itDec 19, 2009

Compared to my Holden Nova I owned before this, this was indeed a big 'step up' in the fact that it had a lot more 'get up and go' when you stomped the pedal.
Once again, a front wheel drive, so a bit of a bore.
Absolutly heaps of boot room, good for a sub, or 3.
Overall, a pretty reliable car.Nov 15, 2009

Great with mileage, crap with speed. It's a car that will last
you a long time, though. 1.6 liter Four Banger isn't great with
a 0-60 in 10-11 seconds, but it looks nice, car is 18 years old
and no rust...Oct 25, 2009

I love this car. I just had one problem with the battery dying not that big of a deal, but over all its a great car. The gas mileage is great and it doesn't brake down like other cars do.Oct 08, 2009

Great all around car. From the factory it has a lot of power for a smaller engine. the handling is tight breaking is great and though it lacks a little jazz on the inside its a great looking vehicle for its year.Sep 08, 2009

Performance - acceleration, braking, handling
Appearance - both interior and exterior styling
C'est une auto agreable à conduire sur route de camp sur routes de campagne autoroute. Confort et puissance, bien equipée sans surplus. Prix des pieces un peu élevé. Sinon rien a direJul 14, 2009

I purchased this 1991 gt in 2005 and havent had anything more serious than the timing belt. Which was replaced other than that car is very reliable sporty quick, and agile. Only thing i can complain about is rear passenger room. Gas mileage on this car is great! Lots of fun to drive not the fastest but very quick!Jun 21, 2009

This car started out as a 91 Celica GT-S 2.2L non-Turbo, but converted it to a GT4 AWD Turbo.
This is a great car to drive. Great on fuel and fun to drive.
I would recommend the GT or GT-S model as a great starter car.Apr 22, 2009

quick but needs more power!!! for how light it is it still handals and grads quite well. i think that after a little hard work and some cash i could really have something. the most important item i need for this car is a turbo or intack work that will be my starting point. Mar 09, 2009

Its a fun drive, fast and reliable. at 182,000 miles Im needing a new clutch and thats it. the radio has poor reception but thats easily fixed. Its a peppy car with great handling. My only complaint is that the brakes lock up easily. Mar 03, 2009

Performance: It's a 2.2L stock...135hp... I swapped mine out with a 2.0L from Japan ...Just redlines higher. Fun as hell in the snow. I had a racing steering wheel....better response with it.
Quality: it's a Toyota!!!
Appearance: I always wanted to own a car with flip lights...surprisingly, it still worked.Never had to fix the motors.

I bought this car due to Toyota's reputation for reliability. The only thing that did go wrong was a problem with the starter motor. I added some 15 inch TSW Stealths to replace the standard alloy wheels, but wish I had gone for 17 inch ones. Performance wasn't bad either. Expensive to service though.Oct 19, 2008

Well, I just recently bought a '91 Toyota Celica..
The appearance is bad now but wait til I'm done working on it! It's my project car.. and surely all of the car lovers must know that it takes time to perfect an awesome car! And I got sponsored by Team SCP1. Oct 07, 2008

A good solid car. Picked it up from a family memeber so the price was good. Toyota has had some failures with their paint on older cars, which is cleary shown on my car. The car is not completely lacking power. This car has lasted a long time with out needing much repair. It is a good looking now even with today's standards. Sep 10, 2008

Just look at the car. It's drive just as good. Only think i can find is that i want a little more power.
No cost what so ever. It runs and runs. Looks like new.
People often ask how old it is and they are always stund. Because it is a timeless modelSep 07, 2008

5spd makes 140hp seem way more. Cruising at 40 in 5th then dropping to 2nd to blow past late-model Monte Carlos and Grand Prix makes driving worth it. Blast to drive, even though the rust is creeping up and appearance is so-so. 170,000 miles? An American car would be toast, mine still gets my blood going. Best $1700 I've ever spent hands down.Aug 19, 2008

I bought this car on Christmas leave from the army. I drove it a lot, the handling is amazingly responsive and the interior was in good shape. When I get back home I will be putting a body kit on it.Apr 26, 2008

I got this car in Aug 2007 and i have put over 30,000 miles in it already and its only March 08. I only changed the tires, altenator, battery, new clutch and timing belt. Besides the reg oil changes i have done. other than that the cars has done me great traveling from VA to NJ and back. Its easy on gas 33mpg highway and 27mpg regular not bad for a 17years old car and everything else is stock... I been to about a total of about 8 junk yards and every car i have seen toyota celica 91-93 generation and the lowest mileage car i saw was 185000 and it still looked in great shape. These cars are really hard to find in junk yards as it is.. Speaking from experiance...lol Mar 18, 2008

It drives very good the braking an handeling are very good. Only it could have a bigger engine. But the plus side is that this one runs very cheap. 1 liter on 14 km wenn you drive normally.
top 210 -215 km

Loved this car and hope to buy it back from the current owner.
Mods:
TEIN SS coikovers
SuperPro bushing kit
Whiteline Adjustable Sway Bar
Whiteline front strut bar
15mm front and 25mm rear H&R spacers
17x8x38mm Team Dynamics ProRace 1.0's in White
This car handled awesome with these mods. I wish I could have kept it but we needed a 4 door automatic for the kids. The 500E was an acceptable compromise for me.Feb 01, 2008

The initial release of the ST185 All-Trac, or Celica GT4 as the non-US world knows it, offers good acceleration, exceptional levels of grip (even when compared to newer cars) and a comfortable interior. It's not suitable for drivers over 6'2" tall, and many Toyota dealerships are ill equipped to service it.Jan 02, 2008

I have a salvage title 1991 celica, and I am thinking it's a keeper. It has more luxury than I'm used to, needs no extras except a ultimatecupholder.com folding cupholder, but I like the way it feels, and with normal tires handles like a dream in Spokane winter driving! If I can get an oil leak under control, I'll paint it and keep it until I get another vw I can love. Wrecked a 92 Jetta, survived, but it didn't. Would I buy another 91 celica? You bet!Jan 22, 2007
