It doesn’t look like the Elise but it does look like the C8. Hahaha. Just kidding. But seriously, every comment section for every car article has someone saying “it looks just like the C8”. Even if it’s a car that went into production 5 years ago. People seem to always find some delusional way of saying two cars look the same. |

Only the older generation respects the Celia though. Younger generations only know the Celica as an underpowered FWD car. With younger people being obsessed with the whole drift scene I think it was smarter to associate it with the AE86. |

I could see the Celica revived on the TNG platform, maybe even make an AWD version?! Toyota?!! Please?!! I think every version of the Celica has been great, except for the TC. For the purpose and the vision of the twins, channeling the AE86 Trueno was the right decision. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

After reading about the new Hyundai Veloster N, they really should make a version with more power. Its the only thing that would make me buy another one. I saw a 2019 white 86 the other day and I really think the 2013 version looks way better. I am not a fan of the new styling.

The new styling on the 86 has grown on me. I miss the boxer piston badge on the front quarter panels. LED headlights and taillights are also a nice upgrade. I’m sure the Veloster N is a fun drive, the mini 3rd door is cool. Throwing extra power at a car has drawbacks though, especially FWD. I think only Honda understands that type of black magic. If the 2nd gen twins get a decent bump in power and torque, and keep it NA I will be happy. (Say 220HP 170 lb/ft). Eliminate the torque dip and it will feel so much better.
