Just extra bragging rights I guess that a 'four banger beat a v8'. I wouldnt mind even if toyota released a newer celica, an engine that isnt that much more 'powerful' but you could mod the hell outta. Take the RSX type S for example.

But, it's still a Corolla. Just like a Civic SI. You can give it all the power you want, it's still the same car. Just my 2cents. Not bad though. Toyota's got the idea. Now let's see if they can run with the ball. With our luck, they'll just fumble, as usual.
