As it has been reported, Toyota and Subaru are working together on a new sports coupe. I just found this at carnerds.com and I'm wondering wouldn't this be a replacement for the tC?

Not awful looking... at least for a start.

But from reading that, it says it's just a rendering. So who knows what it might actually look like. This, unfortunately, is just more speculation.

 

yeah i know, but thought that it did follow the lines of the renderings we've seen since this info began.. would be cool if this was the next tC. Maybe Toyota is holding off of updating the tC because this would fill the spot?

 

Well that has certainly been rumored as an option - and a good option IMO. That's really what I'd like to be holding out for to replace my tC. Was still thinking about the RS5 for something different... but ya.

 

REPOST!...looks like the Orange Sketch that was Posted a while back!

I really HOPE this is NOT the next design!

The little stationary triangle front part of the side windows look Mitsubishi Eclipse!...So Fugly!!!

The front-end Too look Mitsubishi EVO.

WTH is Scion doing!!!!!......Gosh!

 

wtf is this?!?
an evo/camry front, tsx tail lights for head lights, is250 side mirrors..

..still waiting for the final outcome

 

Nah I think it will be the new gen celica not bad/not good. They need to make an aggressive car these cars are too subtle and simple. The TC chassis is alright but they should have given the RS models the AWD from the avenis and the supercharger as standard. Then they could have justified an extra 3-4 grand more for an RS. I think toyota need some new blood in the family there is no more excitement in the brand.

 

That is horrible looking, looks like a 4th gen prius.

 

You'd be paying a LOT more than an additional 3-4 grand for the AWD and supercharger. Think more along the lines of $24k-25k... if not more.

 

looks like an si

 

it's not that bad to look at and you mean third gen...

 

thats a great looking car! totaly unlike evo X or si.. however the headlights remind me a little of the new honda accord


and i think the tails will be like from the first tCs, does anyone like those? i would like this to be the next gen tC.

and again, THERE IS NO AWD AVENSIS!
im super serial!!1

in addition, i would like to note that i think heres a lot of confusion. do you see that a lot of people expect this to be their desirable model? we aint heard an official word what its gonna be. subaru fans hope it would be a 2dr impreza, we would like (or some maybe not) it to be the new tC, the celica fans want it to be 8gen celica, supra fans probably wish for a supra, mr2 fans, subaru svx fans etc etc..

 

*sigh* I still don't think anyone should hold there breath about what this car is going to end up being..we're halfway through 2009 with the 2010 tC's coming out and still no word on whats going to happen as far as a "next gen" tC is concerned..

 

Lmfao, torqueless little thing.

 

haha yeah I noticed that to..with that price tag this car doesn't seem like a good bang for the buck..that is, of course, if all those numbers they have so far hold true to the final production (if it ever gets that far) but still..for that price tag it's not much better than a civic si IMO

rather get a wrx, gen coupe or even pay the extra $5-$6k and get the new Camaro SS

 

looks like a mix between a new eclipse and a new accord

 

i dont like it

 

The 2010 will be released in the fall like always and it will be the same car we drive now,my friend at the dealership said they are still working out the details on drivetranes and such,they have the new body picked out aparently,or at least they all voted on what they liked from 5 concepts they were given to choose from,so someone knows what it isgonna look like at least......but they are not telling us........

 

not a fan. its like an AWD Si

 

If they still don't have the car finished by now, then it might be possible that it won't come out until 2012. They're going to need a good 18+ months to actually make the car after they finish all the planning. Take the Fiat 500 for example. The car is completely finished, and it's going to take 18-24 months just to get it to meet our emissions standards. Now take that, plus finishing the design, finishing the powertrain, starting production, mating Toyota parts to Subaru parts, etc...
