Different trims of the Celica (unless one is AWD and one is FWD) have no real visual differences. And different trims of the same car will also have the same chassis, and will therefor be the same size
if u are talking about newer celicas the 2000 to 2005 celicas the difference is in the engine. VVT-I stands for variable valve timing with intelligence. the ecu changes the valve timing on the engine to try and keep the power higher. this engine is used on the celica gt and is called a 1ZZ-FE and is rated at 140 bhp. the VVTL-i is the 2zz-ge engine and is used on the celica gt-s. it is rated at 180hp. the vvtl-i stands for variable valve timing and lift intelligence system. the engine is similar at lower rpms but once the engine hits about 6400-6600 rpms the cams shift to higher lobes and "lift" happens giving the car more power. the gt-s also has a higher redline then the gt. both cars are the same on the outside though. there are also different transmissions with each engine. the 1zz has the option of a 4spd auto or a 5spd manual. the gt-s has the option of a 4spd auto with a shift function or a 6spd manual.
