The GT-Four ST205 has always been underrated/undervalued compared to the likes of the Impreza/Evo of the time as they performed badly in the championship when they weren't cheating and when they were they got caught and banned, so the cars have always lacked the pedigree/status of the others in the market, which is a real shame as they're fantastic cars.

I really wasn't a fan of celicas at the time and did not know much about them, but the car was only 3000$ CAD and had 115000km so i knew it was a good deal. now looking back i am super happy that i got it. almost impossible to find ST185 in North America for less than 15000$ unfortunately the previous owner did lots of mods that hurt the value, metal flake paint job which was done very poorly, body kit from the early 2000's that looks "rice" and was hiding some body damage to the right rear quarter. dash was cut up and had gauges installed and whatever he used to cover the dash is now bubbling and cracking off. homemade FMIC piping was welded terribly and had lots of boost leaks/very rough welds obstructing flow. lots of little issue but my plan now is to try and convert the car to a CS style 185

As a road car, I'm old enough to remember when they came out and they consistently rated low in shootouts with their contemporaries, the 300ZX TT, RX7 turbo, 3000GT VR4, and C4 Corvette (the Mitsubishi was always last and that was before all the reliability issues were known).
