i liked that comment about we are all living in the past. but you cant blame us can u? i mean, who hear would be proud to boast owning a toyota made in the last 5 years?
i see shitloads, and i mean SHITLOADS of old celicas (talking ta2x, ra2x) around. Toyota obviously did very well with this celica in australia for a few good reasons. 1, it was cheap to buy. 2, cheap to run. 3, had quite alot of technological features that werent that common in australia at the time. 4, looked good (and still does ). what have toyota released recently that does that? nothing!
toyota arnt an old man with a cardigan company these days, they are an old man with a cardigan, slippers with a zipper, and still remembers when a pack of smokes cost 25c
most of my ideas for what toyota should have already been discussed here, but here is a variation of one for ya
toyota are pretty conservative at the moment, but i really think they should release the celica with fwd or rwd as a choice, just for an experiment (i know it would be hard for them, but i think just a once off to see what happens wouldnt be too much of a major risk for them). i mean, it does have a good engine, its just a few kw off an sr20det which is pretty good for a smaller capacity engine na engine. along with that, they should make some kind of stripped down version, taking out alot of the electronics to help drop the price
o and i know this is kinda straying from what was saying, but i see the major problem with the sports car industry is not that there isnt enough buyers for it, its just that the majority of the people that want to purchase them, cant afford it!
