Looks too much like a family car.
And i think toyota needs to get into the performance market a bit more. :|

hmm its possible .. they are big enough to do their own stuff .. I remember seeing them doing a SC for the 1.6l engine for Honda (at least I think it was a 1.6 )

That's because when they roll off the assembly line, Hondas suck ass. They need that insurgence of aftermarket support :D

Dude, you are going to get SO Dremmled by Tiger.. :lol:

Nah, I don't mind Honda. Pretty impressive engineering. They just have a differnt philosophy when it comes to there product.

They seem to let ANYONE have a crack at it. Making it better, doing whatever.

Toyota is exactly the opposite. There are nearly as many Corollas on the road as Civic's but NOTHING availble on the aftermarket. I've often wondered why.. The motors are just as bulletproof, and apparently take to modding just as well (if you wish to throw the money at them). Hell, some of them were INSANLEY modable based on some of the articals.

Odd...
