EXTERIOR:
The body is finished in Solar Yellow (color code 576), a striking color introduced for 2003 and rarely seen today. The paint appears to be original on the body panels with minor chips consistent with the mileage. The bumper covers may have been refinished at some point. The car shows no evidence of accident damage or prior bodywork. The Action Package components give this GTS the aggressive factory-tuner appearance that distinguished these top-trim Celicas from the base GT models. Panel fit and gaps are correct throughout.
INTERIOR:
The cabin is trimmed in black leather with the GTS-specific metal pedal covers. The power-adjustable driver's seat shows minimal wear, and the leather surfaces remain supple throughout. The dashboard, door panels, and center console present in excellent condition with no cracks or significant wear. Factory floor mats are included. The JBL premium audio system includes speakers in the doors and a factory CD player. The power moonroof operates correctly, and all gauges and warning lights function as intended.
UNDERSIDE & REAR HATCH:
The underside is very clean with no corrosion or damage. Structural components appear solid, and the exhaust system shows the TRD unit in good condition. The rear hatch area includes the factory cargo cover and a cargo mat, both in good condition.
MECHANICAL:
Power comes from the 1.8-liter 2ZZ-GE inline-four featuring Toyota's VVTL-i variable valve timing and lift system, developed in collaboration with Yamaha. This high-revving engine produces 180 horsepower at 7,600 rpm and is known for its distinctive character when the secondary cam profile engages around 6,200 rpm. The four-speed automatic transmission includes steering wheel-mounted buttons for manual gear selection. The car is equipped with a TRD exhaust and K&N filter while retaining the factory intake system. .
IN CLOSING:
Seventh-generation Celicas are increasingly recognized as emerging collectibles, with clean, unmodified examples becoming difficult to find. This one-owner GTS with low mileage, factory Action Package, and honest presentation represents an opportunity to acquire a well-kept example of Toyota's final sports coupe before the nameplate was retired in 2006. The car comes from an estate and was clearly cherished by its original owner.
