Do you even know what a Supra is? What kind of car the FT-86 is?

Then call it the Toyota Celica 86 and offer a 6cyl supercharged boxer Supra variant. Problem Solved

It wont be a corolla at least in the UK - the corolla was replaced by a car called the "auris" here and isnt even remotely similar in type to the ft86

celica is a good bet imo, back to what it should be - before the FWD versions ruined it... (apart from the gt-four)

BTW the Tc was the predecessor to the celica if I'm not mistaken.

Do you know what the word "predecessor" means?

You forgot the age and culture this car or at least Scions are geared to. You got to expect the inevitable, especially at a sub $20k tag. That's why you buy the Subaru version to be associated with a better brand and car culture.

Um...I think(hope) you mean successor. The celica came before the Tc in case you didn't know.

Uncalled for, by the time your 16(min driving age) you should know the difference between successor and predecessor. Because one person used the wrong word doesn't give justification to look down on an entire generation.

In all seriousness, no matter what (engine, price, options) as long as the Subaru comes in a 6 speed that's the one I'm buying. I hope no one took my remark as anything more than a joke. As a loyal Subaru enthusiast I proudly support the Subaru culture*



*Where local laws allows it.
