2003 Toyota Celica Preview summaryImage

The 2003 Toyota Celica got new front and back ends, redesigned gauges, and new colors for the interior. The GT-S also got a new, high-end sound system, which was optional on the GT.

The 2003 Toyota Celica was available only as a hatchback, which came as a GT or sportier GT-S. The GT came with a 1.8 liter, 140 horsepower engine. The sportier GT-S, which had distinctive exterior and interior styling, came with a 1.8-liter, 180 horsepower engine. This generation was also the first Celica to come available with a six-speed manual transmission. The GT engine got about 27/34 mpg, and the GT-S engine got about 23/30 mpg.

Drivers love the way the 2003 Celica looks. Many appreciate that they can get a reliable Toyota in a sports car package. Many drivers find the interior to be too small, and others find that there is poor visibility out the rear window.

Its a nice car as for gas mileage and when its a Manuel shift that makes it more fun to drive. Its a Toyota on top of that which spells dependability. Would love to have one of these myself. Great car.Dec 01, 2021

One of the best cars I’ve ever owned. Sold it with 275,000 miles, minimal work done to it. Extremely reliable car, fun to drive with a great look! May 03, 2021

I really like how it handles. You never feel like you can't take that curve. Acceleration is crisp and responsive. Braking is good. The Toyota Celica is a great car for a fun spin around town and surprisingly, it is good on fuel. You can use it to commute without breaking the bank.Dec 15, 2014
