Celica is no more my friend. Our cars have become an extinct species.
It also appears that with the advent of variable valve timing and more advanced engine degign, Toyota decided to turn its back on its long rich history of turbocharging cars. So I'm sure we can expect this deal with Fuji to produce more hybrids from Toyota instead of another AWD turbo wonder from its glory days.  So sad, but maybe somewhere down the line we can see a sports car that still gets like 70-80 miles to the gallon....i know I wouldn't complain.
