Re: Bring my car to PG yea or nay??
I have been on College Park campus dozens of times with the WRX. College Park used to be my second home back when I was younger. For the most part, your Celica should be fine. I don't think twice about bringing the WRX down there on campus. Alot of modded car drivers have their cars on campus there.
As long as you stay around campus and drive up Route 1 to the Beltway to get places, you should be fine. Also, as long as you don't park your car in Beltway Plaza (or actually even goto Beltway Plaza) you will be fine.
The nasty part where everybody's car winds up at is over by the B/W Parkway. And again, I've driven my WRX on that road multiple times as well.
Again, just don't drive on Route 1 into DC and don't go down 193 towards New Hampshire Ave (650). And try to avoid Beltway Plaza (if you gotta drive 193 thru the area to 201, you should be fine, just don't park there).

Alarm will do nothing. Beaters get broken into for smash & grab, just like any other car.
Best thing is to park somewhere off campus (save your parking fees) and take the free shuttle along Route 1. Shuttle is better than a bike, especially when it rains.

I driven my integra there many times and never had a problem. I left it in the garage when i parked it there on campus and drove it around the area. I think you should be okay.
