subaru contributed the components for the rear wheel drive set up (they produce great rear wheel drives for cheap), i doubt toyota would put a subaru engine in there, i guess we still have to wait and see what this bad boy is really made of.

First of all....It has to start at the same price as the TC does and secondly lighter than 3000 pounds. Then I'll buy it.

ya, look at a 25k pricetag...

No way this thing will be a TC. More than likely it will be a Celica.



Oh and if you want Toyotas most powerful 4cyl...2.5L 179hp, 171 tq...Impressive over the 2AZ...but worthless.
I feel this is no different honestly when Toyota had to look outside of their company to build a decent motor for the VVTL-I projects (GT-S Celica/XRS Rolla, Matrix/Vibe GT)

Except they finally wised up that if you want a sports car heritage motor, go with the company that builds them all day long, year after year. Subaru...plus this is the first joint project they have fully designed and started to put into production stages.

The motor is going to be a subi 2.0L motor and is the size pretty much between the Nissan 370Z and the Mazda Miata except unlike those 2 it has a rear seat. No info on weight yet. Price tag between 24k-29k.

This is a tribute car (kind of) to the AE86 so I don't think it is going to replace anything in their line up only an addition.
