Buy This AWD Toyota Celica Rally Special So I Don't Have To
Buy This AWD Toyota Celica Rally Special So I Don't Have To-April 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:38

When you think of an all wheel drive rally car for the road, you think of an Audi Quattro, or a Subaru WRX, or a Mitsubishi Evo. You do not think of a grey 1988 Toyota Celica.

But that’s exactly what we have here. . It was the homologation special for the start of in the World Rally Championship. Performance is, uh, perhaps not exactly what you would expect from a modern rally special, with less than 200 horsepower from its turbo two-liter four.

It is, however, one of the coolest looking cars ever made. This generation of Toyota Celica, believe it or not, was .

This one is in decent shape for a terrifyingly affordable price. The body looks clean, and the only thing the seller says the thing needs is a new clutch. It looks like the price is low mostly because nobody knows about these forgotten AWD Celicas.

Please buy it so I don’t spend more money I don’t have on another car I don’t need.

Find the Craigslist listing for the car in New York City .
