No 7th Gen Celica GT-4. They did make a 4th version of the 3S-GTE that they put into the Toyota Caldina (not available in the USA). Scion Cars are intended to replace the Celica and MR2 in the US Markets

Toyota never said that Scion was to replace the Celica and MR2. They said that the Matrix XRS, the Corolla XRS, and the Solara are supposed to. But we all know that's impossible.

I think I was reading someones opinion on how they didnt want to have the tC and the Celica competing against eachother in the same youth market. I kinda meant that....marketing wise...they moved the celica and mr2 out of the US in favor of the scions...and the other cars you listed. Thats just kinda my opinon. Replaced probably wasnt the right word hehe. This post has been edited by 1900WattCelica: Sep 29, 2004 - 2:34 PM |

its pretty simple really- Scion TC $16,400, celica with same equippment, $21,000. You do the math and see who will sell better...
-------------------- Car #3: 98 Accord LX- purchased 5/06, totaled 8/06
Car #2: 95 Celica GT- purchased 8/03, current daily driver Car #1: 01 Focus ZX3- purchased 5/01, sold 8/03 |

As with some major companies, they decided to stop production of turbo cars and just make rally cars from scratch when needed. (this does not apply for Evos and WRX as the selling policy of these companies rely on their sports cars)

celica handles better though. but the tc does look tight. and with our new rap/pop culture no one really wants a sports cars. they just want bling. im not gonna lie a black tc on 19"s would be tight. but id rather be driving a 7th gen gt4 with like 350 to the wheels and no vvti crap!!!. that would be soooo tight. foward this post to toyota please lol....

There is no 7th gen GT4 as the other guys said but when you mention a 7GC GT4 my mind goes direct to ULTIMATE CELICA.

I think the power this car is producing is awesome and the mods made to it.....but, the look of the car is horrific. I hate the front especially of that car could've been done better
