Well I was driving past the Toyota dealership this afternoon where i got my car and I saw a beautiful :bowdown: Silver 2k2 Celica GTS with the Action Package and TRD everything! Exhaust, chrome 18" rims, 6 speed, looked dropped too (but cloth interior :( ). All done up.... The price wasnt on the car with all the TRD parts on it, so I checked their website and I see that they want $28,973. Now does that sound like too much?? I loved how that car looked and Im sure it sounded even better! But i have to go back there ne ways to bitch about my 4th gear synchro so maybe they'll let me take 'er out for a spin.
Do you think that $28,973 is too much for a TRD Celica GT-S???

Is it overpriced? Yes. Very...very...yes.
For $28k you could get a new WRX with mods, used C5 LS1 Corvette, a Celica GT with West Covine Turbo, a GTS with Blitz Supercharge (not counting install or if it's out yet), the new Nissan Z base model, or a really good hunk of the price of the Lancer out of the way...
Not worth the money. But that is just my opinion.

Pretty much anything at a dealership is going to be overpriced.

:werd: They mark up the price because some people out there have no idea what the price of aftermarket parts cost. Especially TRD parts, which you can only get a good idea as far as price goes if you get their catalog.
