  Hi,

   

  Would need some feedback. Am looking at a 20 year old COE car with a listed price of $23k with COE till 2015

  Vehicle is a 92' Toyota. price quoted by the car dealer. I was thinkingu of negotiating it down to 16k. Think it's reasonable?

  Thanks for any advice.

  Toyota 1992 is instead a OLD car...

  U can visit some online cars' websites to do some research.

  @$23k (below), u may get 1 with COE until 2019.

  Just did a search for you.... just google on the http.

  Thanks for replying. 

  Ur link is to toyota corolla leh 

  I am looking for a 90s sporty car and narrowed down to FTO, 93' Evo and celica.

  Guess I miss my gran turismo 1 days on the PS1...

  U mentioned hard to find spare parts... Hmmm true... But I just wanna spend around 20k on a fun-to-drive car for the next 3 years b4 scrapping it...

  Think it's too much $$?

  You would have to be pretty prepared to cough up for the next COE then?
  
  That's a very brave proposition to take on a COE car just 3 years down the road - anyway, I think you should consider using a ceramic repair gel for the engine and gearbox (Your Celica is a manual, I believe)
  
  Will certainly be worth your while :-) I just tried it on my 21 year old Merc...and then my 3 motorcycles and then my transmission and then my rear axle
