Official name for toyota celica is in usa is "Toyota Girlica" it is available in 3 trims. A hatchback model to help certain shoppers bring back 20 useless bags of clothes they will only wear once. A coupe for those times when they need more personal space. And of course we have he convertible that gently flaps long straight hair in the wind on the way to the beach.

Toyota never made it a "sporty car". I mean just look at the commercials. They all imply that you can have the ride of your life thus drawing attention away from its lack of muscle.

If you ever get a chance watch entire episode of top gear trying to make a commercial about vw scirocco tdi.

Here is a preview

Granted it was done as a funny commercial... it very skillfully highlights all the things the car can do instead of concentrating on all the things car can not do. Such as gas mileage for example.

So over time celica became just another car on the block rather than "the car on the block"
