Scooby Celica In The Pipeline

[JwesT]

The next Toyota Celica is to be built by Subaru, the Monday morning rumour mill has reported.

It has been reported that the replacement for the Celica will arrive next year in Japan and is a joint effort between the two car makers.

It is expected to come in two variants – a high-performance four-wheel drive GT-Four and a more sedate GT model.

Toyota is hoping to put the GT on the market in the US for just over £10,000.

It will feature a front- mounted, naturally aspirated 2.0 litre Subaru engine and rear-wheel drive.

The pricier GT-Four is understood to be getting the same 300bhp turbo four seen in the Japanese-spec Impreza STI.

Both cars could come in a coupe and three-dour hatch bodystyles.

Toyota reliability with a subrau STI engine. Not a bad idea.

Found this under comments.. Hillarious

"Mmmmm pretty sure that they've discontinued "Celica" as a model (like mr2, corolla).. so that WOULD be interesting to see a subaru built toyota.. or is that a toyota built subaru.. or a tubaru.. or .. god, i'm confused."
