Description
The example offered here belongs to a Sydney enthusiast with a real affinity for the GT-Fours and is in strong cosmetic and mechanical condition throughout. Only available in red, white or black the previous owner treated the Celica to a decent repaint in dark blue metallic, a colour that really suits the shape, and the appearance has been further enhanced with a set of TRD 15-inch alloys.
Showing just under 150, 000 kms on the clock, the car is largely standard apart from a boost gauge and shows very little wear inside - the dash and plastics are all in good condition, while the steering wheel and driver’s seat bolsters present well. Currently registered on non-transferable club plates, the Celica will be sold unregistered.
The ST165 was Toyota’s first Celica-based homologation special and spawned a long line of successful rally cars, including the ST185 and ST205 models. With interest in Group A cars taking off in recent years and JDM cars becoming increasingly collectible across the board, the ST165 Celica remains an affordable modern classic that will continue to appreciate for decades to come.
Estimate: $20, 000 - $25, 000
