Guarantee this thing won't be called a Celica, well, at least in Japan. Why? Its not a Celica. Its not modeled after the Celica, not inspired by the Celica, and isn't the product of Celica driver's undying committment to an aged cult classic.

If its called a Celica in America then people at Toyota USA need to get canned.
You put my thoughts on that article in better words than I could have. They better not call this thing the Celica. It should get a completely new and fresh name befitting the fresh and new approach they are taking with this car.
