This ST205-generation Toyota Celica GT-Four is a lauded and engaging modern classic rally-inspired Japanese sports car, which is reported to be in highly original condition and benefits from a recent full respray. Under the bonnet sits a turbocharged 2.0-litre ‘3S-GTE’ inline-four, delivering around 188kW to all four wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. This example was originally a Japan-delivered model, which has been imported to Australia, where it has only recently been acquired by the seller. The odometer indicates 79,997 Kms, though this is not warranted. The ST205-era Celica GT-Four was originally produced to homologate the model for use in the Group A World Rally Championship, and features an aluminium bonnet, ‘Super Strut Suspension’, and an updated and more powerful engine with a full-time all-wheel-drive system. This example is finished in the timeless shade of Silver Metallic, over a black cabin featuring blue and grey cloth upholstery with patterned seat inserts. It rides on a set of 16-inch three-spoke alloy wheels fitted with Goodyear Assurance ComfortTread tyres. Equipment includes a rear screen wiper, a Toyota-branded cassette and CD stereo with CD multichanger, automatic air conditioning, and electrically adjustable folding door mirrors. This example has been fitted with a Momo ‘Race’ steering wheel and a Blitz dual turbo timer. The car comes with a space-saver spare wheel, and the import documentation. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: a light scratch on the bonnet, minor stone chips on the mirror caps and rear wing, very minor fading on the dashboard, and age-related wear and tear on the gear knob. This Celica’s most recent maintenance was carried out in May 2024 at an indicated 79,990 Kms by Hi-Tech Automotive, which consisted of an engine oil and filters service, including a new air filter, spark plugs, and a rocker cover gasket. A full ‘doors-closed’ respray was carried out in April 2024. Other notable maintenance includes the alloy wheels being refurbished in May 2024 by Advance Alloy Wheels, four new tyres being fitted, and the engine bay being acid cleaned. This ST205-generation Toyota Celica GT-Four is an engaging and desirable modern classic rally-derived Japanese sports car, which is reported to be in highly original condition and benefits from a recent full respray. Presented with a refined colour scheme, distinctive styling, and boasting a lively turbocharged engine coupled to an engaging five-speed manual gearbox, alongside a surefooted all-wheel drive system, it would make an enjoyable companion for retro daily driving, weekend fun, and car show visits alike.
