One thing that sucks about modern Celicas -> front wheel drive. I mean you can go on upgrading the engine as much as you like, but unless you like speeding around on highways collecting massive fines there's really no point.
Get whatever car suits your needs, think about things like boot space, passenger/driver comfort (can only just seat 4 moderate sized people in a Celica, probably the same for the Rolla), what kind of driving you do (long highway trips? around town?). Remember, the AE92 is also slightly newer, and hence better Parts are cheaper for Corolla's too.
Go and test drive a few and see what you think.

I think u'll find that to push a car (with decent suspension) Enough to actually make the rwd a better choice will either be putting yourself in a collection of "wreckless driving" and "speeding fines" anyway..
Even with slight mods to the suspension I still haven't (and won't) take my celica to the limit, and its damn good for what it is, I wouldn't change it to a rwd for anything.. A fwd small car like this looses less through the drivetrain and makes good use of its power!
