The most underrated generation of Toyota Celica?

The history of the Toyota Celica is one which stretches over seven generations, each with its own fans, characteristics and quirks. Some generations are more famous than others – the fourth gen (1986-1989) with its GT-Four rally heritage, or the sleek seventh gen (1999-2006) for example – but some have merits that are easy to overlook. All of the usual factors – styling, performance, reliability, cultural impact – factor into how each generation is perceived. On the one hand, some may contend that the earlier generations are undervalued during wicked years as a result of their classic design and cleanliness, and, on the other hand, others may also support the success of the later models to feature better performance and more advanced specifications. What the definition of “underrated” means is all down to personal preference and what Celica models you’ve experienced.
