Hey guys, I found a particularly good bargain with this car. It has 153k on it, absolutely stock so I don't have to deal with someone else's poor workmanship and over all in pretty pristine condition. There's big plans for this car as it's definitely something out of the ordinary. That being said, the Soarer isn't going to be neglected either!

Turbo corolla. Nice :-)

Looked at one of these for my wife, but she wants a Subaru instead.

Looks nice, good find.

the high compression motor in this model responds really well to E85... just saying:-) it's possible to get 380-400hp from the stock turbo (basically injectors,cams and E85 and boost/tuning)

Its basically a gt4 Celica in a station wagon body. Would be my pick for my wife either that or an is200.

My Girlfriend drives my old ST185 Celica gt4 around. Got more rego's than I know what to do with! Since I bought the Caldina I've installed a double din pioneer touch screen head unit, replaced all the mouldy old speakers, replaced brake pads and rotors all round, oil, coolant, differential oil, brake and power steering fluid and given the engine bay a complete clean. I've also acquired some interior parts as the previous owner had simply removed the factory navigation system and filled the hole with cardboard spray painted black. Next up is replacing the front and rear bumper as they've both got more bog in them than I like. Once the car is looking acceptable then it's time to focus on performance.
