Yeah, if you think ae86s are pretty theres something wrong with you, they may be cool looking but not pretty.

I think like many cars, this car will grow on people.

if the prices are reasonable, i'll be driving to my local dealership and trading in my corolla S
the target price tag for the car is between $16K to $$19K.

if i meant procure i would have used procure. instead i used another synonym.

remember, i graduated back when it was common to read books and reference the dictionary and thesaurus. :wink:

you forgot that we built our own cars from scratch and killed grizzlies with our bare hands. you can't forget that.
this is not on topic... 1 demerit

Well within my price range. Thats about as much as a scion. Is it still going to be called a toyota? or since its a new fancy design, they might put it as a scion... :?:

it's nice. my initial reaction is "bummer about the boxer engine". don't get me wrong. i am a GC8 fan but i'm a die hard fan of an I4 engine being the heart of a potential "86" resurrection.

i'm more interested in seeing a production model of gushi's tC. :wink:

I kinda thought that's what they're going for when I saw this new model... I don't really know what to think of it anymore, it's ok, but they certainly upped the price.

yeah, honestly i was a little disappointed with reading about it being a potential "supra" rather than a new "corolla". even when it was being tauted as a celica i began to lose interest.

there was this old blurb somewhat related to the new "celica/tC" topic:

i'll wait for someone to pick one up, crash it, and then take the motor out and put it in an old rolla shell. start a new life.
