Celica Manufacturer Location
« on: Jan 28, 2021, 02:39:57 am »
I came across a post on Facebook about where the celica were manufactured. I assumed it was all in Japan but a couple people are saying they have one that is AUS built. Anyone here know where all the celicas were manufactured at?

I saw that post too. I thought they were all made at the Tahara plant?

Looks like they were all assembled at Tahara, but modified or completed in Australia to adhere to AU design standards, and these vehicles were affixed with an additional build plate.
