It's kinda dark, but I "think" I can see the caliper.

It has the 2ZZGE in there.

look closer that is just the center of the rotor. it looks like a rotor upgrade. the drums don't lip out at the end ...

yup, it's a GT-S

look at the Speedo, it goes up to 160

i don't see the drum brakes

and the seats are leather

EDIT: and the VVTL-i gives it away

I still cant get over why the hell people mod the hell out of a brand new car, get tired of it, and sell it :confused:

..hence the reason why I dont spend any money on cars :D

look closer !! the pic with the rim is actually another car, which is definitely a GT, an all the other pics are GT-S, you can tell by looking at the rims, they are different, the side skirt is different too. But I don't know why the seller put different car pic on it tho.

The picture you are referring to (the wheel shot) is not even a celica. come on guys.. can you see the fuel door? on the passenger side, AND behind the wheel?

-Tronix(hmmmm)GT

if you read it, the guy is being a little misleading...he says you pay $1500 extra to get the wheels that are pictured on the car...otherwise you get the other wheels, which are currently on some other car.

I like how he also says the car has been garage kept and is clean but look at the motor and it is nasty. Maybe that is why in most shots it stays closed. Heck it even still has the factory air box in it. The write up is missleading if you want to pay extra you can get the wheels pictured or pay extra to get the TV, or you get the factory radio.

Its definitely a GTS - look at his vin- JTDDY32T. Of course the engine and the GTS badge ARE a clue :)

I dunno whats up with the wheels.

As for why sell it... maybe he got one too may speeding tickets and got his liscense revoked :) Looks TOO fast....
