I will miss the Sebring. When I became a rich successful buisness woman, I wanted to roll around in one of those. I once dated a guy who drove one... very nice rides. HMPH.

I'm so happy to hear the Sebring is gone!!! FINALLY!!! I liked the celica with the body kit. The s2000 was cheap looking and pathetic, so that is a plus. And only fags drive an RX-7.

![]() Anyway, the NSX hasn't changed much since it's inception, and it's still just a status car with good handling ability, so might be good to see it go. As for the Celica, this saddens me (the MR2 also, but only to a degree because I always thought the MR2 was overpriced, underpowered, ugly, and bland). How can Toyota rid themselves completely of their heritage now? The cars that were the cornerstones of the company in the 80s, such as the Celica, Supra, MR2, and now they're all gonna be gone except the Corolla and somewhat the Camry (although that nameplate has always been bread and butter, it's never been an enthusiatic car IMO). Seems that Toyota is attempting to rid themselves of any type of performance vehicle they had. Turns out us Americans just want a bland vehicle that we don't even have to think about when we're driving. |

Why is toyota killing the mr2 and celica...now they have no sports cars in their line up they must have something up their sleeve dont be suprised if toyota dethrones one of the top 3 auto makers by the year 2010.
I heard the s2000 will become the s2200 slightly larger engine and redesigned body. NSX cool car but who wants to pay 80-90k for one you can get a viper for that price or a cooler/faster porche
