Was it a mistake for Toyota to discontinue the Celica?

Absolutely. With such a strong following, Toyota lost a ton of enthusiast cred by just axing the Celica. Just look at how popular the GR86 is now, that could’ve been a modern Celica.

I don't believe it was a mistake when it happened. Toyota was selling fewer sports cars, and needed to focus on more profitable models. They probably should have brought it back by now, but.

The discontinuation wasn't a mistake but the timing of it was off. Had they just held out a little longer, they could have turned it into a fun, efficient car during the late 2000s recession.

It was fine to stop using it, but never replacing it with anything was the real mistake. Toyota had a big gap in its lineup for years between the Corolla and the Supra.

I would say that it was missed opportunity rather than mistake. If the Celica hadn't fallen out of favor, it could have been a different model as the market dictated.

Nah, it was the right call. Competitors were outclassing the Celica's last gen. It’s better to end on a decent note than fade into mediocrity.

In hindsight, it was just a mistake. At the time, it made sense. Now they should definitely bring back Toyota to capitalize on 90s/00s nostalgia.
What modification should I make to a Celica that would make it stand out at car meets?

A good set of wheels and a drop gotta go with. Clean, simple, and effective. It’ll fit on any Celica without being overkill.

It’s all about the sound for me. Every time you turn heads, a nice exhaust setup that brings out the best of the engine note.

And if you want to be different, do a unique wrap or paint job. I’ve seen some Celicas with some great graphic designs that always get noticed.

Highlight performance mods that will display themselves. A nice hood that shows off a nice turbo setup will make people take notice.

Keep it stock! These days a clean, well maintained stock Celica will actually stand out more in a sea of modified cars.

The difference that LED lighting upgrades can make is huge. The car has custom headlights and taillights which look modern and are eye catching at night.

Stick with a period correct modification style. If you have a 90s Celica, deck it out in full late 90s tuner style, like. It'll be a nostalgia hit.

Interior mods are underrated. People will be more impressed by a fully custom interior with nice materials and killer audio setup than by another body kit.
Is the Toyota Celica a good car for a new driver?
30 December 2024 11:00
Absolutely! My first car was a 6th gen Celica and it was perfect. Not too sporty where it would be fun, but not so powerful that I would get into trouble. Surprisingly practical, too, was the hatchback.

I would not recommend it too strongly. Parts for older Celicas are getting harder to find but they are reliable. Something a Corolla or Civic might be a better starter car and cheaper/easier maintenance.

Well it’s going to depend on the Celica and the driver. If you’re going to buy a GT model, make sure it’s in good shape, but I wouldn’t buy the higher powered GT-S for a new driver. It may be too tempting to speed.

I think it’s an awesome first car choice. The community around Celicas is super helpful for learning basic maintenance and it teaches you how to handle a more responsive vehicle.

Personally, I'd say no. For new drivers, something more forgiving is where to focus learning. Someone who’s just beginning to learn how to drive might find the Celica’s sportier handling and lack of visibility a bit much.
