Be toyota

>be toyota
>have a good series like Celica that was cut in the mid 2000s
>people want a sporty affordable car like Celica used to be
>perfect opportunity to come back with the Celica series
>design a car
>it's meh
>call it gt86 because "we want the dagumifag audience"

FUCKING WHY
All they had to do was:
>call it Celica because it fucking looks like one
>Toyota makes FWD variant with current engine
>Subaru makes a 4WD variant with a turbo engine like GT Four used to be BECAUSE ITS FUCKING SUBARU AND THEY MAKE AWD CARS
>Scion is the RWD variant with a bigger, say 2.3l engine

This is needlessly complex. Toyota needs to do one thing:
>Options for more power

All we need is
>Subaru BRZ STI
>New Celica
>New Supra
>Lexus Sedan with the LFA Engine that will BTFO the lazy Germans

>needlessly complex
They literally did that for years with Celica.

This. It's a fun car to drive, with decent build quality and pricing. It's just weak.

If they make a brz sti, the sti brand will be dead

>making a whole longitudinal engine mounted variant just for scion to have an RWD

nigger you must be joking

Turbo when?

But it already is RWD.

FWD could come from their regular toyota lines.

AWD comes from Subaru which is already making awd cars anyway.

>Scion
I thought that brand was dead

It is, the 86 is just Toyota continuing the FR-S now that Scion is gone

it wouldn't make very much sense to keep the engine mounted longitudinally with a fwd set up. you would have to change the mounts anyways to fit the transmission wouldn't you?

And what's the point of making it fwd again?

KEK

>it wouldn't make very much sense to keep the engine mounted longitudinally with a fwd set up. you would have to change the mounts anyways to fit the transmission wouldn't you?
Well if they'd make an AWD variant with a boxer then there's no reason why they wouldn't make a cheaper FWD.

>And what's the point of making it fwd again?
Cheaper. Besides Celicas beside the GT4 were fwd

>longitudinal boxer
This is the real problem with the OP

Ill rather have a miata with a roof. I bet toyota could be retarded enough to make it cvt only

>options for more power
>pigfat complicated AWD system + turbo
>or gutless 2.2l
I wouldnt really call that an option. I think he meant stuff like dealer aftermarket, like the CR-Z supercharger kit

And the suspension.

>Toyota
>doing anything reasonable with the Scion brand besides making toyotas with fake aero for teenagers

>bitching and whining about a dead name

They would have to spend crazy amounts of money redesigning it just to make a shittier version that no one would want. Your idea is absolutely bonkers.

This is stupid. You're stupid.

Just buy a seventh gen Celica with the 2ZZ and go understeer into a guardrail you dumb fuck.

Actually just get the shitty 1ZZ Celica and do it. There are too few nice 2ZZ models surviving to waste on a stupid faggot like you.

This. They already have the turbo FA20 from the WRX.

Replaced hair dressers car with a sports car.

Can Toyota do no wrong?

Guys, my brother said "I want to get an FRS or a BRZ so people will take me seriously when I say 'I know about cars'"

I didn't have the heart to tell him it would do the opposite.

sounds like a celica to me.

your brother needs a beating

I've decided they're just neat little cars for people who aren't really into cars.

The STi brand has been dead for a long time.
