"Sports cars have to be red, but we wanted a new red," chief engineer Tetsuya Tada said. "So we came up with shoujyouhi red, the traditional red color of a Japanese monkey's" backside.

Hmmm........Had to be red.

Yeah i have been salivating over this car for the last day or so.

It looks like it will handle great, and I think shes going to be very light weight.

If Toyota bitches out of offering a turbo model im gonna be pissed.

Why does it have to look like a 370Z? :thumpdown:

It should be somewhat closer to the original AE86. Then again I think I am in the minority of people that do not like the 370.

I love the lines of the car.

How the tails are kind of a wing but not really and how they both connect down a very thin line in the center is sick.

The headlights are bad ass too.

And that front end... lots of room for an intercooler in there.

Every since Toyota and Subaru partnered up, their has been talk about Subaru supplying the motor, and Toyota supplying the body/chassis.

This article came out awhile back which started a bunch of rumors regarding production of the new Celica: http://blogs.motortrend.com/6229094/asia/subieyota-update-toyota-celica-gt-four-alltrac/index.html

Toyota and subaru will come out with each of their own concept. Toyota will unveil this thing at the tokyo show, and subaru will have their own coming out after that. It is a subaru powerplant but toyota did alter the head to make 200hp. Not bad. Im sure a turbo setup will be coming right along with this car. If they expect it to take the reins of a supra, they better have a turbo version.
