STORY

The Celica GT-Four was Toyota's turbocharged all-wheel-drive Group A rally weapon that dominated the early 1990s World Rally Championship. It delivered drivers' titles for Carlos Sainz and Juha Kankkunen and a manufacturers' crown in 1993-1994. A restrictor-cheating device on the ST205 led to Toyota's controversial 1995 ban.
