Default possible new Celica

Not too shabby! Certainly a little more exciting than my old RSX-S.

I was almost sure that the Scion tc would fill the gap that celica is in now.

Hello Toyota 350Z. Throw on a SMART car front end and here you go.

I like the shape, but that front end is aweful. Definite Z in there, and does anyone see some of the new mustang as well?

280 ps?!? If it's anywhere near that it'll be damn impressive, but I'm more than a bit skeptical.

Sure hope it's not FWD again if it really has that much power.

With the Scion tc taking up the lower end of the sport coupe market, perhaps they're moving the Celica upmarket to compete with the Z and RX-8. This would make sense, inasmuch as the rumors pertaining to the next Supra seem to imply that it will be $$$.
