I agree in not freaking until I hear the official word. And who cares what the outside looks like as long as the engine is swappable.

I hope that car does not go into production and that '05 will be the last year they produce the Celica..ever.

I don't really get what's with the "rival the Honda Type-R family" because the 7th gen. GTS can hold it's own again the DC3 & DC5 Type-R's. With 247hp it could potentially be the 350Z rival.
