Hi, I'm trying to source an ST185 Celica, (I think thats the one I'm after - Early 90's, rounded body shape, popup lights) after i sell my 92 Soarer, I'm a bit undecided as to whether I want to get a GT4 but leaning more towards an SX as I'm getting rid of the soarer on the basis that a performance turbo car is too expensive to maintain in terms of of insurance, fuel etc.
And I happen to think that theyre the nicest looking four clynder under 10k.
Any help would be great. Cheers.

I've kept an eye on GT4's for sale in Perth since Jan...and I've only seen 2 ST185's come on, and one ST165.
I ended up buying on of those ST185's 2 weeks ago...the other one was listed down at a yard in South Freo, but that was in March or something. Not the most common car in Perth, which is y I badly wanted to upgrade from my SX (ST184)...they r rare, yet have wonderful potensial if u have the money...which unfortunately I do not atm.
atm my 184 needs a *lot* of work just to get it road worthy (got a yellow sticker for a small crack in the windscreen only to run it by the pits and find out it's leaking oil everywhere, and coolant too )...I've got some tax $$$ coming in with my return (already worked it all out) so I'll be fixing it enough to make it road worthy and hopefully sellable for around $5-7k...doubt I'd get it but.
Anyways, it's black...but if ur interested, it just might be a few months yet...so yer, don't go holding out eh?
