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.

snadman no one was knocking you.. we just all feel that it would be a real stupid move for Toyota to kill the Celica line. its' been suck a great car for so long. it the longest selling car in the U S just ask your self why would they stop it now. yea sales are not what they were when the car first came out. but that is expected with ever car model out.. that why they change things up. The 7gc have been around since 2000 that almost 4 years of selling a car. it's going to get to the point that most poeple that want the car have bought it already. the Supra like the 300z and the Prelude and the RX 7 just cost to much for the poeple that it was intended to buy it.
