Subscribe to this threadToyota to discontinue all exciting cars by 2006: Celica and MR2 told to pack bags
(Page 1 of 1)

It was very disappointing to learn that Toyota will be discontinuing the legendary Celica and the MR2. As an owner of a 2000 Celica I would have to say it is the best car I've driven thus far. It's got a very exciting interior design which is what sold me. I still get exciting sitting in it. These two models did not fail Toyota; Toyota marketing (or lack of) failed these two models. I believe discontinuing them may be a mistake when you consider how dedicated Toyota is to their Formula One program as well as other racing series. One would think they'd want to support their compact sports cars. I can't imagine BMW and Mercedes pulling the M3 and the AMG SL500 respectively (both having strong F1 programs).
It is a shame.
