Ark Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Makes sense. After all, Toyoya do own Subaru. The Celica has a long rally heritage, and the GT4 was always the premium offering - why re-invent the wheel when you can re-badge a car from a brand you own?

GM says the partnership did not result in enough collaboration to justify the cost so it’s taking it’s money to invest somewhere else. Of the 20% stake on the market now, Toyota confirmed it will buy up 8.7% which is 68 million shares. General Motors will sell the remaining 11.3% either back to Fuji Heavy Industries or put it on the open market." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 A crying shame IMO. The ST205 engine and box are better engineered than the equivalent Scooby do offerings and with evolution could be even better / stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 They could have at least stuck a decent engine in it rather than some crappy piston slapping 4 banger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMiFFAD Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 This is apparently what its going to look like..... Anyone thinking "mondeo" when they look at the rear? http://www.dieselstation.com/uploader/files/658_52beg/toyota-subaru2.jpg http://www.dieselstation.com/uploader/files/657_1iiuu/toyota-subaru1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDriver Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Doesn't look good But I like the idea of rwd and 4x4. It has potential. - P - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Doom Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Looks really boring IMO... I'm sure the GT4 will be beefed up a bit but definitely a Mondeo rear end! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Good, the current Celica is pants IMO, it's got the clunky annoying gearbox and cramped cabin of a sports car but none of the go!! Hyundai have sorted themselves out and beefed up their 'sportscar' Coupe, now coming in correct-wheel-drive. About time Toyota made their own sporty coupe a bit more sporty!
