Scion FR-S

only about $25,000 - 200hp from a 2.0L "flat-four" that makes the center of gravity lower (Subaru motor I think?), 6 speed,

Sadly it doesn't look like they are making a turbo charged one, but 200hp from the stock motor isn't too shabby.

of course I'll wait till its about 15 years old before I think about letting the Celica go and getting one

Toyota created SCION for this very particular reason......

the Tc IS the evolution/replacement of the Celica

and Toyota I doubt will ever release anything close to it under the Toyota name otherwise they are cannibalizing on the SCION line.
