Why does Toyota claim that the GT86 was designed with the AE86

>>15477000
Because RWD and handling characteristics.

I don't think it was really about styling.

>>15477010
Well the Celica was known for it's phenomenal handling characteristics as well, hence it doing so well in rally.

Would have nothing against the whole thing if they'd just offer the AWD as well. This car could've been grand if it was called a Celica and made into a new gen. Everyone wants a new Celica, just like we want a Supra.

The Celica has more recognition as having been RWD in the past than the Corolla.

They wanted the Initial D audience, plain and simple.

trips of truth

at least the new soarer supra has a fucking i6 and better yet its not a bhg thrashed jz with 600000miles on it

>those 0-60 times
LOL yeah right maybe if they are having a dragrace down a hill with the wind behind them and 100 octane race fuel

they also have gutless 0 tourqe engines which would be fine except they are both n/a 'sports cars' with downsized meme engines
