Gear swap? You already have the best gears...:P We 1ZZ folk (and most of the Honda crowd) are stuck with the ultra short 5th gear that is complete garbage on the highway. What are you planning to change out? Final drive is VERY hard to replace in these Toyota transmissions. If you want to swap trannies the only thing that would make sense would be a used Euro 6 speed with the 3.9 final drive, a MWR built 4.3 final drive wouldn't really make sense. Luckily for you, C60s go for a good amount of money.

I see your 36mpg average on the old Celica, this new one should do even better.
