Oh, yes, it does, because that's your standard for comparison (what
year?-a 2007 is $82K). $70K is still about double the cost of the cars
to which you're making a judgment.

And, your `86 Celica gets about 22-24 mpg overall. Don't kid a
kidder--I was a Toyota factory-trained, master line mechanic in the
`80s. I know the technology of that time.
Good cars for the age, but, don't bullshit me.
Cheers.
