The Toyota Celica Liftback Turbo was a Group 5 Special Production racecar version of the 3-door liftback first generation Toyota Celica GT built by Schnitzer via Toyota Deutschland to compete in Division 1 of the DRM.
It competed in the German series in 1977 and 1978. Plagued by reliability problems, it finished twice and won a non-championship race. At the end of its European career, it went on to compete in Japan with minor success.
Throughout its competitive seasons, it was the only non-German car to compete in the top division of the German series.[2][3]
