I Bought a Forgotten JDM Legend

Some cars stick with you for life. Ever since I was a kid, the Toyota Celica GT-Four has been one of those cars for me. Between its rally heritage, aggressive styling, all-wheel-drive system, and rarity in the United States, it always felt like one of those unobtainable dream cars. Now, after years of admiring them from a distance, I finally own one. In this episode, I introduce my Toyota Celica GT-Four ST205 and explain why I believe it's one of the most overlooked and underappreciated JDM legends ever built.

This is just the beginning of the journey. What cars inspired you when you were growing up? Let me know in the comments.
