Replying to: mari05 (Apr 15, 2005 6:58 pm) Actually, they wouldnt. The Honda Civic w/side airbags offers no protection for the heads of the driver and passenger. It is a fairly useless airbag setup, IMO. The test you cite does not take into account head injury. The IIHS test does, and only the Corolla and Cobalt offer 'Acceptable' protection from chest AND head injury. The test you cite is fairly misleading.   ~alpha

well, no, I must concede to reality once in a while!! I was just summing up everything that everyone has asked for in the last 35 posts.   I hope they do the tires (but I don't think they will) and the standard locks with keyless, which they might. I wouldn't be surprised to see more side curtain bags and ABS too - those curtains are the only thing that got the Corolla its great IIHS rating, ditto the Cobalt.

The Civic wasn't tested, citing "design changes" underway....

Replying to: tiger10 (Apr 17, 2005 12:26 pm) What makes you think that? I respect your opinion, but you have to prove it. What does the Corolla have that the Civic does not, besides the Toyota badge?

#40 of 3074 Corolla Standards by DKKING by mkoppuzha Apr 18, 2005 (5:46 pm)
Here is what I think is Fair: Corolla CE is fair where it is right now. S should have Power Windows and Door Locks, ABS and Cruise Standard LE shoule have the 'S' Standards and Alloy Wheels Standard XRS- i don't care. LoL This is what i think is where the compact car arena should be at in terms of what should be standard on all cars.
#41 of 3074 especially by nippononly Apr 19, 2005 (6:45 am)
the power windows and locks, since they wind up equipping every car built with them anyway, and make you pay extra for the "package" or "option".   They do the same thing with the S and alloy wheels - every car built has the "sport package" that includes alloys - they should make alloys standard. Knowing Toyota a little, I think this one has little chance of happening. Not while we still have two trim levels of Camry with wheel covers.   The ABS they should do and I think it has 50/50 odds - Civic will do this for the next gen, and Toyota is going through this big safety campaign right now, so yeah, 50/50. If they do it, I bet it will be across the line, not excluding the CE. Replies to this message: jchan2 (Apr 23, 2005 2:25 pm)

Replying to: nippononly (Apr 19, 2005 6:45 am) Toyota has ABS standard across the line of the Camry, even the lowly Standard and LE editions.
