rumors
they dont need it for money of course, but they need a car like this for people like us. and unlike a new supra (which would have considerable competition), this would sell for sure. toyota would just need to keep it light and cheap. if it was RWD, ~2200-2500lbs, ~150-200hp NA (2zz would be perfect, and maybe a supercharged 2az as an option), hardtop, and < $20k, it would have next to no competition. and a depiction of what it could look like     edit- other colors added This post has been edited by celicaST: Mar 28, 2007 - 4:24 AM --------------------  I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. |

I love AE86s, nothing like them in the world. Im gonna b waitin on this one if they do re-produce it. |
