Description[]
The Toyota Celica is based on a 2001, 7th, and final generation Toyota Celica. The casting features a TRD Action-inspired body kit and wing; the rear wing appears to have been inspired by the Ultimate Celica Concept as also produced by TRD but with more exaggerated features. Additional engine, suspension and interior upgrades were also done to the concept.
In 2013 Hot Wheels produced the first-generation '70 Toyota Celica. And prior to both in 1998, the Pikes Peak Celica, replicating the 1994 GT-Four Celica driven by Rod Millen, made its Hot Wheels debut.
