old engine parin

Am I the only one who doesn't think that's a bad thing? The Corolla is known for having decent torque and good fuel economy... not for being a speeding bullet...

Do I want one? No way... but I'd buy one for my wife...

i think a saw a white test unit last night sa white plains...though camry ang emblem sa likod...mas maliit sa camry...mas maliit headlamps sa camry...i doubt that was a camry...is this toyota's way of keeping this hush hush for a while???

The interior doesnt look bad. The faux wood doesnt look bad IMO either. This Corolla looks like a glammed up small scale USDM Camry LE inside and out.
Ang mahal nga lang... 1.035M for the top 1.8L!!! Toyota made a good decision for marketing the 1.8L as a luxury model, cos it wont sell if they market it as a sporty model say, a 1.8S variant even if they would throw bodykits in the package in that price. Why?? Because a 750K Automatic Transmission worth Honda Civic V would just smoke it in straight line or even in curves...
Its a dismal also that G variants just have driver's airbag. Sana yung 1.6E na lang ang single airbag.

Aesthetics, sana wala na lang side mouldings pati rear mudguards sa V variant... it would make the car look younger.

Vios in steroids!

For everyone who said "Yawn" or "Boring"... Toyota says... "Thanks, that was the point of Corollas since 1966, too bad some people still don't get it." hehehe.

hmm... parang ginaya sa yaris yung front niya the same with the new vios...

parang ginagaya na ng toyota ang mitsubishi, same ang front design nila.

bagong trend siguro sa japan yun.

egads.. for 1.1M mag discounted Mazda6 ka nalang...

or for 100K more mag CRV ka nalang.

Methinks toyota will sell less of these than they imagine. Just look at the overpriced RAV4.
