2002 Toyota Celica GT w/ VVT-i 16v motor and 5sp manual - Completely stock creampuff

Carbon Blue Mica exterior (very rare, ighly desirable color; almost as dark as black with slight hint of blue) and black/blue cloth sport seats 178,xxx miles (12K miles/year)

Located in Royersford, A (about 30 miles west of Philly)

Car is advertised locally for $4800 which is the price to end the auction early. I assure you that this is the most fun & reliable car you can purchase for under $5K.

Original owner, oyota dealer serviced every 5K miles since new, o accidents (original paint, o bodywork), potless interior, ll original no aftermarket parts. The mileage on this car is true highway mileage, sed as a commuter to work up the AC expressway for 90% of the miles (great on gas gets almost 40 mpg on the highway). In the past 25K miles, have replaced almost every wear and tear part and the car is running perfect. The shift linkage is very tight (not sloppy) with no grinds or slips. There are no squeaks, reeks, attles, humps. The car has always been maintained well and if something needed to get fixed, t would get done. I am selling because of small twins now and the car seats don't fit. That being said, t could be driven across the country tomorrow without any issues.

Overall Condition

Current NJregistration and inspection good until July 2016. Oil just changed earlier this month. Four matching Michelin tires have plenty of tread remaining, would estimate 20K miles left. A/C blows cold and heat works great too. There are no check engine or warning lights lit.All power windows/locks, unroof, nstruments on dash, ights etc work fine.The car needs nothing mechanically and is one of the nicest cosmetic originals you will find.I would rate the interior/exterior condition 9/10.This car drives like it has 30K miles and I invite anyone looking for this model to drive this after others with less mileage. The engine pulls as hard as it did when new and virtually every moving mechanical part on this car has been replaced. A more complete list of recent repairs is shown below.

Exterior

No accidents or work has ever been done to any part of the metal body, traight as an arrow on every panel. The paint on the body still has a rich shine to it and there no rust issues.The car was always parked in a garage and it looks that way. The exterior is about as good as you will see for an original 2002. There are the typical micro-sized rock chips on the very front/rear bumpers etc visible in direct sunlight, ut no dents or body damage.

Interior

The interior of the car looks new and has been well kept. I replaced the floor mats not too long ago with new OEM Celica mats. Everything in the interior is OEM stock, ncluding the factory Toyota radio. There are no missing trim pieces or cracks in any plastic pieces. The sunroof works as it should (no leaks or electrical gremlins etc). The shift linkage is very smooth and all electrical items work. The car comes with the original owners manual, ull size spare tire, nd jack/tools that came with the car new.

Mechanical

In the past 25K miles, have done numerous normal maintenance repairs (>$5K) all with OEM Toyota parts done by the dealer. This car is very reliable and has never left me stranded once. The entire suspension has been completely replaced as normal wear and tearmaintenance. A recent list as follows:

New timing chain tensioners and waterpump @ 160K miles ($800)

New PCV valve @160K miles ($150)

Brake master cylinder and fluid flush @165K miles ($800)

New brake rotors and pads @169K miles ($650)
