The title says it all. The Toyota Tercel has marked a whole generation and we are bored already.

Yes, those who succeeded him, the Echo and the Yaris are excellent cars, but they do not have the charm of their predecessor. So here are 9 reasons why we miss the good old Toyota Tercel.

The Tercel is indestructible

Production of the model ceased in 1999 and yet, we can still see a lot on our roads. Some are rusty, yes, but they continue to roll. Most have today several hundreds of thousands of miles on the odometer. Even the definition of reliability!

It brings back memories to everyone

Personally, this is the car with which I learned the basics of manual transmission. It was blue/purple, a beauty on four wheels. But the worst thing is that she did not have a tachometer. To teach a student driving an auto manual, this is not very strong.

It consumes as little as a new car

In 1999, the last year of commercialization of the Tercel with us, Transport Canada announced a combined fuel consumption city/hwy 8.2 L/100 km. It is almost as good as a Yaris brand new!

There was a wagon version, AWD and manual

What do you want more? Alone, these three characteristics call into question the principle even of the SUV.

This is the second car the most significant of the series, the Little Life

After the station wagon with the wood of Ti-a Graduate course. In the episode good Evening with a large B, Thérèse tells us that she has lived an adventure to the edge of a Tercel. This episode is all the more ironic since everyone knows that Réjean, her husband, was anything but faithful.

In the summer of 2003, the production of this show hosted by Guy Jodoin had created a partnership with a Toyota dealer. Each week, an amendment was done on the Tercel blue. At the end of the summer, she was drawn among those who had participated in the draw organized by the magazine’s 7 Days.

There was a Sport version

Good version, this sport was not a sport, but you would at least keep your driving licence! It had skirts, a spoiler and rims special. I still dream about it.

It has been a feature of a Bye-Bye

In 1993, a skit starred Dominique Michel, Patrice L’écuyer and André-Philippe Gagnon as well as a Tercel. It was a parody of a commercial for Toyota in which Dominique Michel imitates the goalie Manon Rheaume. A piece of anthology!

It still has a good value

Obviously, the one that will be completely ruined by rust, and which will have traveled half a million kilometers will be more expensive. But a copy without rust and without too many miles will sell easily above$ 2000. For auto compact is at least 18 years of age, this is not too bad!
