I had a brand new 1984 black Corolla Twin Cam GTS back in the day. Thing would rev to like 9000 RPM and was a blast to drive!

You have no idea how popular those cars are do you?



Yeah. I think people forget that cars like that are the new 60s/70s muscle cars and are becoming increasingly collectible.

Just because it's old doesn't make it worth that much money. No one is going to pay $7200 for that piece of shite.

Agreed. That is a pile.

You can buy a sharp Mr2 for under 7.

The AE 86 is becoming collectable. 7200 would be for a perfect one with less than 50k miles. The seller probably found a perfect on ebay and thinks their car is the same. This is probably worth 1500-2000.

That's a hachiroku. Not sure about $7200, but the market on those is a bit different than your run of the mill late eighties econobox. It's an enthusiast car, popular with the tokyo drift types.

The '84 Toyotas (Corollas definitely included) were one of the few cars you could count on starting on a regular basis.

I opted for a new '82 Mitsubishi (badged as a Plymouth Sapporo) clone of that Corolla-

It ran and ran and ran and ran.....

Mine had wheels and was cleaner-

Damn. Great car. Had a red one.

The GTS decal stood for Got Taken Sucker.
