LOL It's all good, a lot of ppl don't know exact meaning of GC8 is anyways. First thing first, GC is technically a Sedan. Here's the door chassis code

Sedan: GC
Coupe: GM
Wagon: GF

Secondly, 8 is the engine type in the car. Here's the list

2 = 1.8L
4 = 2.2L
6 = 2.5L
8 = 2.0L turbo

For an example: My car would be GM6. GM for coupe, 6 for engine type.

...and if you wanna go more in depth, there's more letter/numbers after that. Bunta's (Ini-D) car is GM8F28D... but who's asking. lol

Hope that helped

Celica 86? Anyway at first glance the logo looks like BS to me. Anyone felt that same :bonk:

Maybe they will use it on the wheels, small badge on center of every wheel. Nice to see some things moving forward, we just may see this car in production after all :p

I thought it was -confirmed- this thing was going to be a Scion in the U.S.? Or is that still speculation?

Like I've said before, the badging matters little to me. I mean, if comes branded as an 86, that shit will stay on the car because I like it, but any and all Scion badges are being removed, with possibly -TOYOTA- badge being placed on the front grill, if I can make it look right.

It was never set in stone weather it would be a Scion or Toyota.

To me, its a Toyota 110%.

Fucking Scion lol.

All JDM models have their own badge. The Soarer and MR2 badges are quite awesome.

Highly doubt it will be.

Highly likely.

Yes. God yes! That's a great idea. I'm gonna steal it. (The idea, not your car).
