2001 Toyota Celica GT Liftback

Description

As it reaches passed the 20-year mark, a coupe like this 2001 Toyota Celica GT is rapidly becoming a sought-after classic. So you need to take notice of something as special as this one-owner car. You may never again find an example that is so well-respected and loaded for such an affordable price.

While this is approaching true classic status, it looks anything but vintage. Toyota delivered one of the most daring designs of the era. The headlights sweep up the bumper and halfway to the windshield. And there are well-chiseled lines that follow this contour through the full front end. The profile is a mix of well-creased lines and gentle contours. The rear bumper seems to bring it all together. So while this car has been driven over its lifetime, you can still see the proper respect you get from a one-owner example where the panels continue to fit together well to showcase this coupe correctly. Even the glowing Liquid Silver Metallic paint shows all the right signs of being the factory application. In fact, this one only seems to deviate from stock in the kind of places you would so on a car you enjoyed and wanted to keep stylish. This includes the Enkei wheels, tinted windows, and newer headlight lenses that keep the front looking distinctly clear. It's a sporty attitude that goes well with a factory GT like this that also has the cool hood scoop and full-width rear spoiler.

The interior has the clean look of a car that continues to defy age and mileage. So while you may see a few signs of use, there is an overall impressiveness to this coupe. And really, what you'll love is how this is a driver's package. That means high-back front bucket seats, a grippy sports steering wheel, a tilt column, and a terrific-looking full gauge package. This one is loaded with your favorite features, like power windows, power locks, keyless entry/alarm, cruise control, power mirrors, dual airbags, and a cup holder center console. The stereo is also an upgraded AM/FM touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth. There is a large power sunroof, and because the factory air conditioning is blowing cold, feel free to open this up for some wind-in-your-hair fun even in the summer.

Under the hood is part of what makes this car so desirable. The 1.8-liter four-cylinder is a 16-valve DOHC motor with modern variable valve timing. This fuel-injected engine is so versatile it was utilized in everything from the Corolla to the Lotus Elise. That means it's both a peppy and a fuel-efficient powerhouse. And this is the kind of motor that has earned a nearly indestructible reputation in other Toyotas. And the four-speed automatic transmission makes it versatile for driving near or far. Plus, it's a blast to drive with the fully independent suspension, nimble power steering, and four-wheel power disc brakes with ABS.

The sale comes complete with the original window sticker, owner's manual, and maintenance records. This is the sharp-edged coupe that's a loaded one-owner modern classic. So grab this Celica GT now while it's still so affordable. Call today!!!
