A sad day for some..., A happy day for others Options

[snadman]

Today, as I went to the Toyota dealership to look for a 6sp GT-S I learned a few things. I learned that they've only made a dozen GT-S's that are 6speeds within the last year and a half. I also learned that either next year or the after they are dropping the GT-S in the USA. The year after that the Celica will be dropped all together. And when it's dropped, it will be sad for some of us...

But for those who can afford to spend more than 35k on a car it will be happy. The Supra will be returning to the USA in that year. It will still sport the 2JZ-GTTE engine, with upgraded technology however...which may bring it a new number in the JZ engine line. It will be a brand new body style, and no information besides the fact that there will be one when the Celica is dropped has been leaked. I have no further information besides it will come out and it will sport a 3.0L inline 6 twin turbo optional engine.

Later.

Oh yea its 2JZ-GTE.

And yea.in the beginning Celica sales were very strong. Up a whopping 230% from 6GC Sales. They are still selling quite a few but sales are dropping off...I doubt tehy are makign a dozen are so....Do you know why the salesman said dozen? to make the 6 speed seem more rare to entice you to buy it! =)

Supra with 2JZ? Unlikely although a 25th Anniversary Supra TT would be great (For more info on the next supra...look up my posts)

Bottom Line: Celica is not goign to die and Toyota is hard at work for the next Supra and a side one...for guess what......an Exotic (New information =P).
