1970, and since has grown to an immensely popular line of Japanese
sports cars. Through 7 generations, the Celica has gone through many revisions and design forks. The best known of these forks being the Celica Supra "Ferrari Killer" offshoot. Others include a 4 wheel drive
turbocharged GT mostly seen in the 5th Generation between 1991 and 1994, a
