how is this not interesting to you guys? a modern toyota sports car is praised ahead of others, and you skip over it?

I'm impressed, for once they don't call the new Celica soft.
Not really a fan of FWDs though, so I'm not ecstatic.

I watched Best Motoring International Vol.7 yesterday. They had a under 200hp touge battle, and they really seemed to like the 7th gen celica. Not so much the looks, but definately the handling :)
The other interesting thing is that was on the video, was a current model mr2 with 2zz-ge which basically seemed as good as the ae86 it was racing against in the final. And it was racing Tsuchia's personal 86. That would have been a brilliant car if toyota gave the option of a 2zz over the 1zz in the new mr2's :/ Would be a easy way for toyota to get back into putting out cars with more of a focus on performance.
