Toyota's fifth generation of the Celica (1990 to 1993) was given new styling that fits well into its new decade. The small sports coupe retained its front-wheel drive setup, offering new engine updates. Also maintained was the choice of notchback, hatchback, and convertible depending on the variant chosen. Toyota sent North America four different variants beginning with the base ST, along with the GT, GTS, and the GT-Four, which would also return as the most potent version of the Celica. A homologation version called the GT-Four RC (Carlos Sainz edition) was also constructed. Due to the motorsports heritage of this generation, many 5th Gen Celicas were converted into Race Cars.
