These cheap JDM cars are unlikely to stay this price for much longer so why not go ahead and consider buying a Toyota Celica whilst you still can?

It's funny you mention that, because I always heard the same and sorta dismissed them because of that. I think it was just general kid sentiment at the time. ZERO people think that now because I think people woke up to how f-ing cool they look and are to drive now. I'm 37 and just got my GT-S last year and made it very aggressive looking. Instead of being a "girls car" it's like something out of F&F and when valve lift kicks in it's absolutely mind blowing. What an amazing car they won't make again.

And now the RSX Type-S is much much more expensive and piled high with miles. I wanted one, but chose the GT-S Celica. It's just a plain better looking car, but obviously not quite as powerful or nice. You can't beat the price though and you get a Toyota. She is small for sure, but uncomfortable? Nah. Driving her is a dream, but it's not a luxury car.
