The second‑generation Celica arrived in August 1977, ending a six‑year‑and‑eight‑month gap since the previous generation.
Angular design language
Introduced in 1977, the A40 (and its A50 sibling) embraced a more angular body shape, giving the Celica a sharper, more modern appearance.
Rarity of body panels
Body panels for the Mk2 Ra40 are considered very rare and are not compatible with other Celica generations, making original parts especially sought after.
