    found this pic and infos somewhere, this is supposedly the 8th gen toyota celica due out next year. it is codenamed 197L and will a new engine 2AZ-GE 2.4L 247hp.
    it might be released worldwide,but sadly not in the US.apparently toyota will replace it with the scion tC which will soon be on sale(the scions xA and xB are selling like hotcakes and the tC will probably triple that.the coupe was supposed to be called xC but volvo already has an SUV named like that thus tC).
    anyway....

    hart to believe,but the current toyota celica came out in 2000, so a redesign next year is due.but not in the US, the celica is dead.

    Hindi ba sikat ang Celica dyan sa USA? Bakit parang bihira yata ang celica nowadays sa Pinas...dati nagkalat supra at celica during the 80's....
