I had wondered why if Toyota doesn't make the Celica anymore, why don't they at least make something like it?
All of the regular Toyota models I see on their website had no sports car at all. Then when I went to pick up the little clips for the brake pads at the Toyota Dealer I walked past one of these Check out the different colors in the build your own at Scion.com http://www.scion.com/buildyourscion/config...l&year=2013 Hot Lava ! http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/2013-s...st-drive-review http://www.cars.com/scion/fr-s/2013/snapshot/ Scion FR-S only about $25,000 - 200hp from a 2.0L "flat-four" that makes the center of gravity lower (Subaru motor I think?), 6 speed, and they say it comes stock with the suspension "neutral balanced" Sadly it doesn't look like they are making a turbo charged one, but 200hp from the stock motor isn't too shabby. of course I'll wait till its about 15 years old before I think about letting the Celica go and getting one -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.

...Are you just now discovering this car? This car has been around for a couple years now. The first one I ever saw in person was the brz, on base actually. I already read a lot about it when it was still a concept car. I was really excited about it. Until I saw how it was mass produced. Kind of made it over played like a Honda. Still a very nice car but too common now. Guess that ahat happens when you make an affordable car for the youngsters. Lol. Scion tC. It's as close to a Celica as Toyota will ever make. True that but we a need a sporty Celica. The tv was an Econobox like ou 6th Gen in he states. Sadly. Would've been nice if the ssiii was imported at least. Lol. -------------------- |
