The 33rd issue of the RALLY CARS series that digs deep into one car model is Toyota's last rally Celica "TOYOTA CELICA GT-FOUR ST205". While the surrounding rivals were becoming more compact, it was one that took over the flow of the ST165 and ST185 and boldly challenged the battle.

At the end of the 1995 season, the factory team was forced out of the limelight due to a violation of the technical regulation of the intake restrictor. bottom. Through interviews with Juha Kankkunen, the ace at the time, Yoshiro Fujimoto, who drove the ST205 as a Japanese driver, and Freddy Loix, who was active in the ST205 after the factory withdrawal, we will examine the ST205 rally car from various angles.
