Was checking out toyota's japanese homepage tonight, and the Celica has dissapeared from the JDM home market lineup... This leads me to believe two possible things, and I'm leaning towards the latter... Either there will be a new celica being released in the near future (possibly based off the forthcoming new corolla?), or the Celica nameplate is going to be dormant/gone for quite a while frown.gif I havent heard anything real solid about a new celica, and thats what worries me...

Close but no cigar my friend... here's an excerp taken from wikipedia...

The Scion lineup in general, including the tC, was designed to replace the Toyota Celica, replacing it with a sportier selection that would be more attractive to younger buyers.

The name tC does not fit in with its stablemates the xA and xB because the name xC has already been taken by Volvo for its XC70 and XC90 models. According to Scion, tC stands for "Touring Coupe."
