Amid much speculation and rumor, the next-generation Celica is expected to debut sometime in 1998. Apparently, Toyota had been originally considering changing to a front engine/rear drive format in order to make the car more performance-oriented (as Nissan will do with the next-generation Maxima). These plans were scrapped after research found that the largely female buyers have negative preconceptions of rear-wheel-drive cars as dangerous and evil-handling. One rumor that refuses to go away is that of a V6 model being included in the lineup, which would be a break from Celica tradition, but would probably help sales. Finally, a limited-edition, all-wheel-drive, turbo model (GT4/All-trac) is believed to be once again in the offering. Whether or not it will make it to US shores is another question. Here is a possibility of the '99:

My bad...its pretty tho.

never seen that.. pretty cool though

A lot of the times when poeple say repost, I don't really remember it. I wish they would have went that direction. I heard about the V6 thing along time ago. That would have been great if it would have went RWD, and they need to offer a turbo model. I will preach that over and over, Toyota needs a RWD or AWD turbo car. Bring the supra back, but price it the same as Subaru STI, and EVO 8.

I posted it first.

I posted about that a long long time ago. The pic dosnt work any longer though. >>

Wow, almost totally wrong on every level.

Apart from the FWD bit. Hehe.

Good repost.

I don't really like that body style...

I looks like a damn tiburon. I would never have bought it if it looked like that.

i think it looks good but if it was a v6 or RWD, i wouldnt have one. my dad is a bit too careful on these kinds of things.

idk... reminds me of some weird bug or something... perhaps i am just fixed on our 4 headlights that are about the same size.. >>
