So I was looking at a post and came upon this:
 Everyone was having a cow about how retarded it was to do a pseudo-Benz body kit. Agreed. But there was little mention of the rear-mounted engine. That had me floored. And I couldn't find any discussion about a mid engine Celica anywhere here. Assuming this Polish company actually did it, and it's not a lame Photoshop job, I am impressed. What confuses me is that it looks like a straight four in there. If you're going to drop the money to convert the rear compartment to have an engine (drivetrain, suspension...), you might as well go huge. I personally think there'd be nothing cooler than a AWD mid-engine V10 Celica. I didn't think it could be done (without tons of cash) until I saw this Easer car. Comments? ...except maybe a wheelbarrow full of free tacos, that'd be cooler. --------------------  |

Well I found the English version... and it answers some questions.
The mention of the Rover and Scorpio brings into question whether or not it actually is a modded Celica. Well it's definitely not either of those cars. I was wrong, the rear engine isn't a 4, but it also apparently works. A V6 isn't too bad. So I guess that means all the aforementioned mods were done. But some poor fool thought 21,000 pounds meant 25,000 dollars. Sadly it does not. 21,000 pounds definitely puts it up there with the Lambos in price. So I guess that means a rear engine Celica can be done, but for a lot of money. -------------------- |
