How many miles do you have on your 5th gen? - Page 12 - Toyota Celicas

That's a lot of miles... and motor is original and not rebuilt? Suddenly my 195k seems meager.

I just bought my celica about a week ago. I have to say I love her. she is the only vehicle that I have ever had that I actually named lol. have already replaced the stereo and have the speakers to replace those as well. I worked for toyota about 10 years ago a little less maybe, since then I have wanted a Celica. I was fortunate to come across this bad girl. 1992 Celica with 158,000 miles with no problems. Completely clean interior and a pristine exterior. all power works. Including both headlights and foglights. Cant wait to do some real modding.

Great question, I own a 90 ST 4A-FE (1st generation engine) with 5 speed MT and her name is Kikyo (from InuYasha). Got her about 4 years ago; had 192k then, at 205k now and running strong.

Posted some photos of the 300 dollar beast in the members pics section under the title $300 1990 Celica. Motor looks decent for that many miles and I only see Junkyard markers on the windshield wiper motor. Either way it is going to get replaced hopefully before the end of the year.

Have had the car since she was a pup
The secret is to use good gas/ castrol oil ever 3,000
And run cheveron fuel cleaner ever 6,000k
Keep the car waxed and clean.

Here's a picture of her

I have just bought mine with 250,000kms (about 155,000miles).

Previous owner has done a lot of work to keep it running and original. Motor is in awesome condition.

I recently saw one for sale with 405,000kms (about 251,000miles). Unfortunately it was a little tired.
