I'm sure a fair amount of people know about the Corolla WRC from back in the day.



Though, probably no where near the amount of people who know what the AE86 is. Then again, the GR Corolla won't really be for the average consumer. Toyota, of course, will try to come up with a marketing strategy that will try to be as inclusive as possible to sell as much as possible, but will more likely lean towards the enthusiasts' side.
