My local Toyota dealer (Kendall Toyota) is listing 46 2006 Corolla LE's in its future inventory and when I check the accessory list none of them show side air bags. Either it is an unpopular option at that dealer or they made it standard equipment.

Did you learn if the 06 model will have some changes or refreshed as in the photo link above ? Or is it just the same carry over from the 05's ?

The photo at the site is the same as the 2005 but I doubt the web designer changed it. It list the first arrival dates as 8/17.

Thanks chestnut for the reply.....I'm abit confused.....If its the same as the 05, why is the tail light and headlights different and the intererior looks somewhat different on the link I provide ? The wood grain highlight inside is different on the link photo and the electronic map is added that I do not see with the 05 model.

I meant the dealer inventory site (kendalltoyota only noticed the side view which looked the same to me) I am sure there will be changes to the 06 I was mainly curious to see if there was changes in the options since there has been no official info yet

Thanks for the clarification chestnut. I really hope that it will look like the link I gave you and not just the same 05. Had the 03 model and now want something just a little better looking inside and out. This way I can wait for the 08 change that is instore for us or maybe wait until 09.

to the 2006 Corolla, which I suspected given the detail revisions made to the 2005 models.

I totally agree with you about the new Jetta Taillights copying the Corolla's. When i first saw the new Jetta from the rear, I thought I was a Corolla! Makes me feel good that I bought a car whose features are being imitated.

Just got the 06 catalog and I see no change of any kind. They are providing the electronic map and rear bumper camera, but thats it. Everything else looks the same as the 05 and I thought they were going to refresh the darn thing with different head lights and tail lights. Unless the dealership got the wrong catalog that says 06 on it. I am disappointed to say the lease.
The new 2008 model in the Motor Trend Mag shows a new design that is different, but for me thats something not to write home to mother about.

Just looked over the new 2006 catalog again and noticed that there is nothing mentioned about a Nav system or camera for the backing up of the vehical, that the dealership stated that would be installed by the manufacture, so I am wondering if this catalog is wrong, and the new 06 do in fact have a newer refreshed tail light and head light look. Every artical states that the new 06 will have a refresh look with the tail lights and headlights and the link provided shows this, so I believe the information in the catalog is a screw up and I'm actually looking at the 05's
It also shows that the power output is less for the 06 by 4 horse power, over the 05's. I guess I'm just venting right now and have nothing else to do but complain.
