I had a tercel. This made me cry. That car felt happy. It felt alive. When i owned it I was happy and alive. Now im just alive.

I yelled out to find a Tercel and all I got was an Echo.

[gaydes]

it looks like the default setting when you put in "90s economy car"

I used to drive a 99 Tercel and what a great regular car it was. Took me from A to B with no hazzle everytime, with good fuel mileage. Even crashed it twice, fixed it and still kept going. The definition of what a car should be.

Fun fact: daytime running lights were made mandatory in Canada in 1990.

The Toyota tercel. The official car of "awe thanks grandma, yeah I promise to take good care of it"

My aunt and uncle had this exact car, same color, and I am getting PTSD from remembering that when I was 10 years old in the backseat playing one of those shitty Radio Shack Tetris clones. I got the high score, and made my name on the high score ticker "FUCK". My cousin giggled, and my uncle said "what's so funny?", and grabbed the game from my hands. He looked at it, and turned around said, "do you know what you just did?! I am not going to tell your parents, but YOU are. This is on you". That guilt weighed on me for years.

Thanks Mr. Regular. Now I gotta go to confession.

Nothing makes me HARDER than seeing a well maintained car from the 90s. These seem better maintained than the people born in the 90s (me included)

I honestly love these cars. There's just something so simple and sublime about a Toyota Tercel. It's nothing fancy, but as Mr Regular said, it's HAPPY to do what you ask of it. It's a faithful friend that is always there for you. You take care of this car, this car will take care of you.

I've watched this review 4 times already. This one is going in the books as a classic. Everything about this video was on point.

A friend of mine had a 1990 Tercel in college. 4 speed manual, no tach, one half of one working speaker, and vinyl seats. Once, she once ran over a mutual friends foot backing out of a parking space. He didn't even have a bruise. Ten years later, they married.

Toyota Tercel, the official car of Amber Alerts.

This car is a donkey on wheels .. no matter whatever you do to it, it will always run, just change the oil and filter every once in a while and it could outlast you ..

When mr. Regular says “you see in the 90’s” you know your gonna get a dank review

[dexm]

I still have mine and it still gets 35 mpg mix and pulls real strong and easily keeps up with today's traffic. I'm keeping mine, and I love it.

[ejaokay]

One time I saw a perfect green Tercel Coupe in a parking lot and told the lady driving it that I loved her car and she looked at me like I was insane. Lmao

The toyota tercel, for the guy who buys 160 cans of tuna from Aldi's

[hooligan]

I can smell the hot plastic with a mix of motor oil from here

[cozzoli]

I bought my mom one of these. 1997 same rose color same interior but it's a two door. Original everything 160k, drives great and she loves it.

I have a 97 teal Tercel and it runs perfectly. Purchased it 4 years ago and never had any major problems. Love it so much. Get lots of compliments on it too.
