NEW DEVELOPMENT: Price drop, SMOGGED, Car no longer needs work. New engine installed, tuned (put down 215 AWHP).

Alright,

I have a 1990 Celica All Trac for sale or trade. I just replaced the turbo. Right now it is set up for as much as 300hp easy and I just dropped in a new engine (still under warranty). Bottom line, it comes down to this: I need a bigger car for my jobs. I am posting it up fair market value so it can sell or I can trade.

Parts:
SSR Type C comp wheels with Yokohamas
brand new t26 trimmed to make 1.03 bar boost
Strut bars (whiteline)
Tein Coils
HKS hipower exhaust
Apexi AVC
AEM Standalone
Fiber Images OEM style hood (no longer made)
1993 tail lights (I have the original 1990s)

I have a bunch of extra OEM parts

For sale: $7500 OBO

I am looking for trades such as s14's, IS300's, VIP cars, WRX's, and old school JDM. You should let me know if you're not sure and I will consider the car.

nice car, these are really underrated.

These cars are actually not underrated. They're overhyped and not rare "yet"; they are slow, heavy, and overpriced(gotta pay to play). I've owned 3 and love their look and uniqueness and that was my purpose for owning them. If you're buying one of these, it's not for speed and/or agility unless modified. With money, anything is possible obviously.

I've talked to the previous owner a few times in the past and this car has been in the bay area most of its life if not always.

Overhyped? I doubt it. No one even bats an eyelash at celicas, much less know that some of them are AWD turbo.

Thanks for backing me up. No, i talked to the previous owner and it used to be in Arizona, before that it was in Socal and thats where I picked it up. If you think thos car is heavy compared to any other AWD car youre dreaming. Yes AWD is heavy, it doesn't make my car slow. if you are here to badmouth my car and my sale do it on your own time, not in my forum please. Your opinions are your own, thats great, but trying to impose upon my sale, now that's not very nice, is it?

Bro, Im not sure if you had a shitty one or what, but this thing is quick as Fuuu it pulls like a monster. I personally rode in this car and that was before the new engine and the tune which is desperately needed. They also are most defiantly rare, You dont see ST185 on your daily drive to work. Though I do see just about every other car on here every single day. Don't come on here to try and troll when someone is trying to sell a good car at a good price.

If you guys really want me to troll, I CAN. THIS car is worth only around $5500-6k imo. Interior is dirty, if I was to pay $7500 I'd expect at least a clean or almost mint interior. There are a couple ST185's on alltrac.net right now that are still for sale for a little more and are in much better condition exterior, interior, and mods. It's even hard to sell those ones.

And actually I do see ST185's once in a while. Not every day per se, but something rare to me is if you see them only at car events or one once every couple of years. There's a mint 93 in town that the guy bought for around $13k, but we're talking about a 93 and in showroom condition. There's a big difference in price between the 90-92 vs 93 for one known reason, RARE!

You think it's fast because it's your pal's car. So why wouldn't it be fast right? All your friends' cars are fast. Why wouldn't it? To help boost the sale right? And if you think this car is fast, then you haven't been in many fast cars.

Prime example below:

AllTrac.net • View topic - 1991 st185 (http://www.alltrac.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=42338) and it's not too far from your buddy's asking price. Now this one is :bigok:

Still for sale if anyone is interested. Car is now in LA. I'd buy that one over THIS one anyday dollar for dollar. Now is this what you call trolling? :fruit: Everyone comes in here and says how rare these cars are and hyping it, but in reality it's not and you're okay with their opinion. But when someone that actually has real experience with these cars voices, it's called trolling? I didn't know this forum belonged to matzinm2 either? I never said matzinm2's car was slow in the first place. You guys need to retake your English comprehension classes if you guys couldn't understand simple English reading.

TurboKramit & matzinm2, TurboKramit quoted what I said; "If you're buying one of these, it's not for speed and/or agility unless modified. With money, anything is possible obviously." How hard is it to comprehend that?

I am not even going to respond to your flaming. All I considered doing was selling my car on here for less than what I spent on the thing with tune, new block and a new MKiv supra turbo. Yes it is modded, thats why its fast. It has 100 more whp than a stock st185 and if you're going to troll do it on your own time to your Honda friends. Like I said before. It is my thread, not my forum. And I am asking a fair price, the majority agree. I spent 5k on the car itself and another 5k on the block and turbo. I am not asking you to flame or troll. I never did. I am just trying to sell my car (if you noticed the OBO). IF you aren't interested in the car why do you bother? For the greater good? What do you have to do? Shouldnt you be busy? I am glad we have worked out am understanding here, thanks.

Your gunna sit here and tell me I dont know what fast is when you drive a 07 Versa, dont go on and rant about all these cars you got and how awesome and fast they are after this. If you were so proud of them then you would have them listed in your signature like everyone else does on all these car forums.

I know fast cars, Ive driven and been in cars that are faster then Id be willing to bet anything you have owned or driven. They are rare, rare doesnt mean you JUST see them at a carshow, because that is what it means to you isnt what it means. It means you can't read a dictionary. It is however, uncommon and their are few spread out around the country, which is EXACTLY what rare means. If I wanted an S13 or S14 or even a Skyline I see all of those more then I see a AllTrac Celica. I also dont remember seeing in here anywhere where it says this one is MORE rare then a 93. So that argument is invalid. Clearly there are others. IN YOUR OPINION. is exactly the thing you should have looked at, maybe someone for around the same price as the one you posted would rather not have to go all the way to LA and rather buy this one cause it is closer. It doesnt matter

Also if its worth that much IN YOUR OPINION. Clearly you aren't here to buy the car, so instead of bashing dudes sale and being an all around dick, just dont post and move on. Or go "hey, GLWS" like every other respecting car person. I refuse to listen to people like you come on here and act like this place is youtube and sit here and bash someones car. Everything you said is opinion based. Keep your opinons away from other people sales. Let him do his dealings in peace. The price he has considering Just that Hood was 800 New and isnt made anymore. Whatever you have, there is nicer of it. Whatever he has there is nicer of it. This goes for everyone. It is a good car and good for the money. Ive bought and sold more cars then I can count. I am also a mechanic, I know my cars and resell values. He will get what he is asking.

Also I never said fast, I said quick and it pulls well, I dont think that BECAUSE i know him. I know that because I have been in the car. It CAN with just tuning make a shitton more HP then it has right now.

I don't know who crammed the B18 piston in your ass but if you have nothing nice to say then keep your hands off your keyboard. I hope you try and sell something else on this forum. Ill be watching.

The nerve of some people.

Also if the MAJORITY of people hype this car and think it is rare... did you ever think, that maybe, JUST MAYBE... your wrong. So more people see this car less, and believe it to be a rare car. You however live in a town with one REALLY nice one. and because there is one in your town and you OCCASIONALLY see one, which to be honest are probably not AllTracs, they are most likely regular Celicas made to look like an AllTrac. You wanna tell me its not rare when all I can see were about 250 in north america. Seems rare to me BRAH... but it has been fun. Just hold back any more flaming you may or may not have. Then we can all put this horrible event behind us.

Have a good day.
