Could it Be?: Toyota FT-86 Might Be Celica

According to Toyota, the FT-86 concept is going to be the best car in the world for drifting, or at least affordable drifting. The engine sits far back under the hood, and with weight being way down, the planned 160-180 horsepower engine will be plenty sufficient to provide a fun experience.
Apparently turbo and convertible versions are being considered. But what strikes me as odd is how they can consider this, a rear-wheel drive car, a Celica. For me, I'd be disappointed if it were a Celica, and not a Supra, unless they have bigger plans ahead for the Supra name.

Either way, the FT-86 (or Celica) is set to launch in 2012.
