Even if it DOES carry the Celica nameplate at production (which I doubt), it ISN'T a celica. It's the hachi-roku 2.

Bullshit. It's not anymore "not" a celica that it is "not" a corolla.

Its going to be a sweet car regardless of a dumb namplate/badge which I'm sure a number of people are going to debadge anyways.

^ What they said. From an Image perspective, I think a new name is best. From a marketing perspective, Celica is the only sensible option. It's well known, has a lot of history and people all over the world ADORE it. Doubt they are gonna change up the name for different markets this time around. At the end of the day, for me personally, I don't care, but I want this car to sell as much as possible so that there will be future versions and more sports cars from Toyota. If this tanks, you can forget about either.
When are some of you guys going to get it though your heads that the 86 is a chassis number and not a model name?
