| aren't available on Corolla in the U.S.! Where did you see that? | |

I put xenon headlights on. I found them on EBay. They're the lens type. As well as a lot of other stuff not usually found in a Corolla. I had the exhaust system redone, put a very low profile air intake in, got one of those performance chips, had really good leather put in, put in a navi, replaced the steering wheel. It's my little grand tourer. I think I'll try for heated seats sometime in the future. It gets about 165 hp now and 155 torque. Mines an 04, I didn't really like the grille on the 05. I was wrestling in my mind over whether to wait for the XRS 05 and then I saw the silly cladding.

the very silly cladding is bolt on, bolt off. I wouldn't mind THAT being optional for '06 on. They make it a package with foglamps and such on the Matrix. |

| I've been wondering why Toyota offers Stability Control only on automatic equipped Corolla's. VSC is the best safety advancement since seat belts. It helps you avoid an accident, instead of helping you survive one. I'm hoping Toyota will let us manual shift types get VSC in the 2006 Corolla and Matrix. Or I could get a Scion xB, (VSC standard) | |

| VSC being an option on all '06 Corollas, but i don't feel it is that important on a little car with such a low center of gravity. | |

| How extensive will exterior changes be for the 2006? I know 2006 was supposed to be the year for a mid-cycle refresh, but the 2005 had quite a few changes itself. | |
|
|
| The Corolla only got some shiny stuff around the grille, some new taillights and a price hike for '05. I just hope that the prices for the Corolla don't go much higher..... | |

the '06 gets a new face that mimics the new Avalon/Camry a bit, but in a smaller version. I am equally sure we will see no powertrain mods, and we will see some content shuffling and a healthy price bump (with more standard equipment). That is what they have done with every other mid-cycle refresh in Corolla history. The exception was that in 2000 they dumped the 3-speed automatic on the lowest trim level, but that was because it was hopelessly outdated, and too cheap for a Corolla in the first place. One thing they MIGHT do is cancel the XRS if it has been selling horribly, but I sure hope not.
