Toyota's NEW Celica and MR2 will have BIG power...and prices

[@phosimmie]

$60k for a Celica?! The 2.0 GR Supra barely sold and they cancelled it. If true I’m going to need Toyota to make a sports car with the 300ps variant engine and sell it around $35k-42k

[@vtecondeck3065]

The supra is a different story since bmw put the b58/s58 in many of their cars. For people that want b58/s58...there are many options. Imo Toyota should have never put the b58 in the supra and saved it for an engine they could develope to compete with the s58. Imo it ruined the supra name plate. The mk4 supra will always be more legendary than the mk5 supra regardless of the mk5 being more powerful.

It’s called the GR Corolla. You can get the base for low 40k with 300hp.

@@iManual6peed Toyota is known for its BIG lineup. While others brands try to keep their variety to a lower more "manageable" number, Toyota is just so big that they just release as many models as they want. So yeah, I do think the MR2 and the Celica can totally exist at the same time as the Supra. Besides, the Supra not selling well is just destiny at this point lol. The Supra NEVER sold well past the mk1. So I'd say that's completely normal there. It shouldn't be a problem tho cuz the money they make on Corollas, Camrys, and Rav4s alone is enough to make up for the production cost of the Supra. That's something that's always bothered me, when big brands kill off low sale cars bcs they don't sell but like BRUH, the other more popular models are carrying the brand already so why the f*ck are they worried that ONE model isn't selling as much!? If all brands did that they would all have become just like fkn Mitsubishi: lame, ugly crossovers and an econo-car that's been deemed the WORST new car you can buy but people but them anyway bcs they're cheap as f*ck. Toyota already came out of its "econo-car" era and is making a comeback into the sports car and off-road world. If they kill the Supra again, that whole momentum will be lost and people will switch from hating on the Supra to hating on Toyota for giving up so fkn quickly. Just take some funds from the Camry's big fat piggybank and bam! Easy! Supra can keep going for another decade regardless if it sells or not. And besides, it's not like the Celica and MR2 are gonna sell well either. Allow me to remind you that those were originally killed off bcs of low sales also. Same with the Lexus LFA, they're only bringing it back bcs people live the car NOW but back then nobody wanted to buy a supercar with a Toyota badge on it. It's just like Andrew Garfield said as a response to fans suddenly wanting him to return as Spider-Man after all these years. He said "WHERE THE F*CK WERE YOU ALL IN 2012???"

Ima say this with full respect, fuck toyota rn. They have been shit show lately, from corporate to dealers, and they need to get their shit together. Im saying this as a toyota fan for a long time.

Lets talk about the awkward front end design of the forthcoming Honda Prelude. Its stealing design cues that its competitor the Celica is likely to have as well as the design shared by the Prius and other Toyota models... I like the look, but don't want my Honda ripping off the look of its direct competitor at Toyota.

honda boring ugly slow yes thank you

[@Mr99Burns]

I have the 86 I love the look I love the handling but the nine lets you down. Probably will trade for type s integra or civic R

[@stuekere]

I had a MKIV supra...I didn't buy the new one as it didn't have the same energy. Give me a GT4 Celica that looks great and has all the bells and whistles and we have a deal.

3:28 I have a 2024 NX250 on loan this weekend the Prius shifter is the worst thing I've ever experienced. Last night I thought I had it in drive and it was in reverse and I floored it backwards. Even in Manual mode with paddle shifters the transmission software locks you out of gears no matter the speed. Whatever transmission they use for either MR2 or Celica wouldn't even consider buying one with that shifter.

Bring back the celica gt4 with the legendary 3sgte , but please with more power like 450 horses..

[@masonmisenheimer275]

Make a vid on the new Integra s hrc prototype

[@geraldeuz6763]

The yellow render reminds me of a 180/240SX.

[@Scisca1a2a]

I hope they make them affordable after all

[@Mr99Burns]

Not until Supra is gone So 2027 the earliest And will will start mid 50s

[@davelaneve2446]

I was under the impression that Toyota was going to boost the horsepower in the Supra, making it their flagship, and the Celica and MR2 were going to be priced under the Supra...and that is how it should be...

[@HaiRune]

I wish it was rear wheel drive that’d be my car

[@valdiswallace830]

I like the crown sport also

[@mrjackbagginz]

Hello,. My Lexus hybrid basically has a hack,. I travel 60 km droplets of fuel to recharge battery gs has 340 which is more than enough power,

[@HemiBurns]

The Yellow version looks best on the Celica.

[@stitaniumrumble7171]

I had a 91 mr2 I’d love to buy a new one but for 70k I’d rather get a vette.

[@lecoureurdesbois86]

I own an SW20, and I'd rather have a 4cyl base version and a V6 for higher trims. If I was buying a mid-engined sports car at that price point, I'd want more than a 4cyl. I would probably go look for a Lotus instead...
