In Australia I'd be doubtful of the name Sprinter. Celica certainly would have more recognition with Australian public, though not necessarily in a good way (FWD hairdressers car isn't it?)
I'd love a new RWD Celica (I'm an 1976 RA23 Celica owner here) but I think this beast will have an entirely new name.
It really is a combination of a variety of Toyota sports car influences - handling AE86, looks 2000GT, engine 2.0L synonymous with Celica. Something to bring back Toyota from their depths of Boredom will need to be bigger than one model, eg not just a "new celica/sprinter/supra/whatever"

They were Toyota Corolla Sprinter...
Only this one was called Toyota Sprinter...
