    Problems / Reliability?

    I was wondering if anyone knew of any issues with the 2000~2005 Toyota Celica GT with the automatic transmission. My gf is looking at getting a newer car and that is one at the top of a short list... I know its the same basic engine as the Corolla so that should be more than good enough, but I don't know much about the automatic transmissions or if there is anything specific to the Celica that could be problematic or that we should look out for. Thanks!
